Ourselves

What is your attitude toward

TABLES. as they are popularity
termed?
Do you shop from the aisle
tables or do YOU conflne yourself
strictly to the counters?
Aisle tables are an important
factor these days-especlally
OUR aisle tables; they are
always interesting.
You NAV not be aware of the
fact, but il is impossible for a
great store like this to enumerate
in its daily advertisement ALL
of its bargains or ALL of its at
tractivc wares. The aisle tables
are called upon to take the place
of the papers-they are MIR
RORS which reflect the stores
doings the same as advertising
pages.
We only mention a VERY
SMALL percentage of our attrac-
lions in the newspapers. The
balance of them are shown on
our aisle tables.

WIDOWS IN MADAGASCAR.
Their First Year OF Mourning One OF
Abuse and Misery.

ABUSE ana MISERY.
There are no gay widows in NADIA
GaScar not, at least for one year after
the husband mas died In Madagascar
on the death ot any man of position
on the day OF the funeral the wife is
placed in the house. dressed in all her
best clothes and wearing her silver or.
uamentS, OF which in general she pos
>rSSr> u considerable quantity. There
she r"nAn> until the rest of the house
nave returned from the funeral
AS soon rs her relatives return they
begin to nviIe her IN most abusive
amglngc ana tell her that it is her
fault that she has been stronger than
Il"r husband and that she is really the
filiNr Of his death They proceed to
tear the ornaments from her ears and
neck Aud arms and give her coarse
cloth and spoon with Il broken han
lie and dish with the foot broken
oIi Her hair is diShpvrled, and she is
covered with Il coarse mat. under which
She remains all day long and can onl,
'aVe at night. And she may not speak
to any one who goes into the house
Neither is she allowed to wash her face
or hands, but only the tips of her flu
gers.
All this the Madagascar widow en-
dnreS for n year, or at least for eight
months, and even when this is over her
time for mourning is not ended for n
considerable period.
The last straw consists of the fact
that she is not allowed to go home to
her own relatives until she has been
hrSt divorced by her husbands family.
