Polish Versus English.

We have our difficulties in the pro-
nunciation of Polish names, and l was
foolishly chatting a Polish friend as to
the tongue twister Przasnyzs. The
Pole laughed, said the word with an
easy swing and taught me in minute
how to pronounce it And he taught
me something else-the difficulty Of
the language Of England. Words OF
English can beat the Polish in the con-
strangulation of vowels and conso-
nants, and my Polish friend after we
had sat and spat and gurgled and
purred the easy words of his speech
pulled out a newspaper and pointed
1.-The relative strengths He would
like to know how to pronounce that
word of eight consonants and one
vowel And l should like TO back that
word to beat the friendliest foreigner
ON our shore.-London Chronicle.

every morning. Precisely as the clock
struck he came out of his house and
hailed the nearest cab. Eventually
certain cabman noticed 1t and was at
the masters door each morning. AS
soon as Rossini entered the cab the
driver would look at his watch and
then drive off at a good pace. This
proceeding was repeated every day.
Ros ii often wondered whether the
driver looked at his watch to see how
much time he had to get to the theater.
Finally one day he said. my friend.

During all this time there has been
practically no rain and the whole
county as can be well imagined, only
needs the dropping of lighted
match to produce a conflagration
which can only be stopped by rivers
and swamps or by back-fring. The
past few days there have been vol
umes of smoke seen in different direc-
tions from the city. More especially
was this so in the neighborhood of
Rib hill. This dry condition seems
to have covered all of the northern
states. Grass fires have run over
large areas near the city which have
not done any injury to speak of.
What this country needs is rain and
plenty of it, and there is no doubt
but what it will come very soon.

Commentators cannot f1x the date of
Joseph the carpenters death, says the
Christian Herald. Some hold that 1t
must have taken place before Jesus
began his public ministry. In support
of this they point to the fact that Jo-
seph Is not mentioned in connection
with the wedding feast at Cana. 9th
ers believe that Joseph must have
passed away before the crucihxion;
otherwise he would have been at the
cross with Mary. Under the circum-
stances nothing definite can be stated
on the matter Christian tradition as
serts that Joseph was over eighty
when espoused and that he lived to be
a very old man. The upper room"
mentioned in Acts |, where the first
gathering of disciples and converts
was held after the ascension. may
have been In the house of one OF the
apostles (of John or Mark. as some
supposed, but the general view Is that

In olden days the stores in the old
world had a sign over their dOOrways
reading, "Caveat Emptor, - meaning the
buyer beware"
In those days a customer entered store
or shop always on guard. It was a case of
''be careful or you viii be cheated" and
"buy with your eyes wide open"
This store does business on different principle We
say IF you can't come to make purchase, send your
little tOdding child-either of you viii receive the
value and the same courteous attention" Merely be-
cause you send your child you need have uneasness
that the child will receive something which you would
not have taken. And it. perchance the child does Pur-
chase an article which does suit you, remember you
are at liberty to reurne the item and get immediate
turn of your money
We want you always to remember that this Is a safe
store. reliable store a store you depend upOn-n
season and out of season.
That's history It should be the foun
dation of every enterprise.
The favorable and powerful feature attached
to any business is satisfaction. Satisfaction full and
complete is eternal aim.

 IN WEI STATES

Seattle, Dec. 13-Owing to the decision of the state supreme court in favor of the prohibition law, the liquor dealers and breweries which have been carrying heavy adyertis- ing will have to cancel all of their advertising after January 1st. The newspapers arc prohibited from car rying any liquor ads after that date.
 Scores of dealers have secured To- cations in wet states and hope to continue catering to their custom CTS by mail and express and other means. They contend that prac- tically the same quantity of liquor will be consumed and that under the terms of the law residents can import it for their own use and in this manner they expect to keep old customers supplied.
 There is a divided opinion as to the outcome of the enforcement of the law, as affecting business con diriOus ultimately, but it seems to be the general opinion there will be a depression of business until con- ditions have at least re-adjusted themselves.
