Miss Jeanette Glider, sister Of Rich

Here Mr.. Dawson ran his fingers
over a bit of upholstery that was in
itself the bond between the blues and
reds that made the lounging room of
the new Bankers Club, which he has
decorated, so satisfying, half purple
twilight and half orange red after glow,

corporation lawyer did disappear in the

A Remarkable Ending
of a Remarkable Sale

That is just what this halfprice offering is
a remarkable ending of remarkable sale.
The August Sale itself is remarkable because
Of IT'S extraordinary low prices for the values given
in face of rising market; because of the large and
increasing attendance of buyers during the month;
because of the large daily sales-each days sales
without exception greatly exceeding those of a
year ago.
The ending of the sale is remarkable because
it offers half prices for grades of furniture that
cannot be duplicated to sell again at double the
figures. Everything entering into the cost OF fur
niture-wood, hardware, wages-is now at a
higher level and future retail prices must therefore
be higher.

WHAT A REVIVAL is

The word revival" Is often given
a meaning which primarily does not
belong to 1t. Many emphasize the
conversion of sinners as the essential
element in revival work; but that is
the secondary meaning of the word.
Essentially. revival means the quick
ening of Gods people. You cannot re-
Nve a dead man. The unregenerate
sinner Is spiritually dead. He must
be born again. Now, you may re-
vive a partially drowned body, or a
partially frozen body. The regenerate
souls life often weakens and wanes,
until the flame almost fiickers out. But
If there be the least spark of life left.
1t can be famed into a fame; and
like the apparently dead cinder in the
smithy's forge, that spark will touch
others and kindle a fame that will
enthuse church. a city. or even
nation. A revival OF religion, then,
must logically begin with the church.
Such is the divine order.-The Chris
tian Herald. -
