RABBITS NOW IN MARKET.

Milk Inspector Emil Ulrich is
wearing broad smile these days,
over the arrival Of the first saleable
rabbits here. 1t was Mr.. Ulrich who
drew up the bill passed by the last
Legislature allowing rabbits to be
sold here. The rabbits come from
outside the State. however, the Della
ware law prohibiting the sale in the
State OF Delaware rabbits. Prior TO
the enacting Of this law the only way
rabbits could be purchased here was
10 order them from a hotel or cafe,
but now they can be bought on
stands in the markets and elsewhere.
Inspector Ulrich figures that the
new law will serve TO lower the cost
of living as It will provide an album
dance of game at moderate prices
and will also be appreciated by the
unsuccessful Nimrod who can pur
chase his game and not be held up TO
caustic comment by his better half.

LOCAL Shoe Store
EXTENDS BUSINESS
Everybodys Shoe Store at Seventh
and D Streets Inaugurates Innova-
ton Which Will Aid Purchasers.

The possibilities Of mercha ndising in
the National Capital were emphasized
Yesterday when Everybody's Shoe Store
first announced to the public that it
had extended its business from a
manufacturers clearing house for sur
plus stocks. salesmen's samples, etc, to
include the taking over of the surplus
of overstocked retailers in other cities
Tho first retailer that Everybody's is
so relieving is Wyman. Of Baltimore.
This is one of the largest and highest
grade mems and women's shoe stores in
the Monumental City. II handles only
the highest grade trademark shoes
and its own Wyman-stamped footwear
This store has for years enjoyed the con-
tidenCe of the buying public Of Baltimore.
and its volume of business is second to
none in that city.
Like many other Baltimore merchants
Wymans found that II was fast ap-
proaChinE the spring season with far too
great a volume OF the present season $
stock on hand. Its usual semi-annual
reductions reduced this stock. but not to
the necessary extent by any means
However. the store did not feel that it
could afford to associate its name and
its well-known hiEh-Grade stock with
any lower prices. Nevertheless, il was
most important to gain possession OF the
space occupied by these shoes and to
convert them into immediate or almost
immediate cash.
The stock Of shoes that Wyman has
just consigned to EverybOdy's amounts
to over 200 pairs Of such well-known
makes as Sorosis Wickert & Gardner.

featuring Company and Clement & Ball.
of Baltimore. in addition to Wymans
own stamp make This new movement
of Everybody's handling retailers over
stocks offers a source OF relief for re-
tailers of this and surrounding cities. 1t
likewise gives the Washington public un-
usual shOa-buying opportunities.
