well advertised tramp. l have bought no
other since then. Therefore / repeat
that in spite OF their rarity there are.
however esitimate bargains which fall
into these two classes:
First Seasoned goods which must be
moved off the shelves to make room for
the goods of the incoming season, such
as we will soon have in winter under
wear and clothing to make room for
spring goods.
Second. Clearing out of limited
amount of merchandise on special occa-
sions because OF special trade conditions.
but only when offered by the merchant
whose claims about such goods have
been suhstantiated from past and perma-
nvnt experience.
But bargains III these classes Of
goods beg to have you note, deal with
merchandise which is unnamed and for

spirit Of the Pharisees. who bound
heavy burdens upon others. but shirk-

hearty obedience to the Law.
In OIden times, more than now, 1t
was the csston for rich men to ap-
point stewards. Such steward had
absolute control OF his masters goods
The one mentioned in our Lords par
able was extravagant. wasteful, unsat-

dispense with his services, and asked
him to render up his accounts.
On his books We're certain debtors
who apparently could not meet their
obligations. The steward concluded to
scale of these debts. so that the debt
Ors could pay before he turned over
his office to his successor. One owing
a hundred bath of oil was told to scale
ii down to fifty; another owing a hun
dred measures Of wheat, to scale it
down twenty per cent; etc. Such q
use Of his authority made him friends
amongst those favored; and his lord
complimented the wisdom displayed.

taking an opposite course. He declared
that they sat in Moses seat as inter
