Fear of Poverty,

We have grown literally afraid to
be poor. We despise anyone who
elects to be poor in order to simplify
and save his inner life. We have
lost the power Of even imagining
what the ancient idealization of pow
erty could have meant; the liberation
from material attachments, the un
bribed soul, the manlier indifference
the paying our way by what we are or
do, and not by what we have, the
right to fling away our life at any mo.
ment irresponsibly-the more athletic
trim, In short, the moral fighting shape
1t Is certain that the prevalent
fear Of poverty among the educated
classes is the worst moral disease
from which our civilization SUFFERS

Planned, but Never Written.

Among those books which great
writer's planned, but apparently never
set pen to. are some notable might
have beens" of literature.
A writer who planned an article on
the subject few years ago, says the
London Chronicle, finds among his
notes a Robert Louis Stevenson one In
the shape OF life Of Hazlitt." Sir
Richard Steele contemplated His.
tory Of the War In Flanders;" Isaac
Disraeli intended "A History Of Our
vernacular Literature" William Make.
peace Thackeray not only planned a
Life Of Talleyrand," but Il was ad-
vertised for publication in long bygonc
years, and Emile lola contemplated
writing book on Honore de Balzac.

while the total volume of business,

TOWER LAUNDRY.

Out on Bloomington Avenue at the
number PAST is the Tower Laundry.
Mr.. J. Whitney is proprietor of this
place and has had it under operation
for something like fifteen years,
though the present name and manager
have appeared for only about five
years. Mr.. J. Chester Whitney was
born in Chicago in 1879, but came to
Minneapolis in 1889 and has lived in
the seventh ward ever since he was
ten years old. Mr.. Whitney's father
was a great friend of Potter Palmer
and many other prominent men of
Chicago, and enjoyed their friendship
for the many years of his life in that
city. The Tower Laundry is first
class laundry in every respect, and
does all work Of this character, and
in addition a dry cleaning plant is
maintained. Mr.. Whitney owns the
building in which the laundry is ope-
rated and consequently can run at a
minimum expense. The telephone calls
for ordering work or communicating
with this establishment are: Calhoun
2S17, and Drexel 3118. So in remem-
bering the oft quoted truism that
"cleanliness is next to godliness,'
think of the Tower Laundry in that
connection and your wish is achieved.

ment Store is fast coming to the front
in the procuring of goodly moiety of
the trade Mr.. Chas Rigler was for
merly in the same business in Glen
dive, Montana for about five years,
and for eighteen years in Eureka,
South Dakota. Mr.. Rigler tells us
that he has come here to stay for good
and all, and that the sooner the buy
ing public appreciates the fact that
this is 6rst-class department store
with prices down within the reach of
all, the sooner will the public profit
by same. Ladies' ready to wear gar
ments, prints, silks, laces, gloves, dress
goods, corsets, lingerie, ribbons and
the entire gamut of necessity run by
those buyers of feminine persuasion.

HOLTZERMANN'S CHICA.
GO STORE COMPANY.

Although this is really a general
department store, there are certain
articles which are so much special
lied upon and which have won so
much prominence in the reputation
enjoyed by this firm for handling ar
ticles somewhat out of the ordin-
airy, that one hears considerable more
about them than he does the regular
department store stock. For instance,
here at 417-425 Cedar Avenue you can
procure all sorts of European novel
ties, Deutsche Spielwaaren and Rare
Antiques, and it. is upon this class
of goods that so much stress has
been laid. Through their foreign Offices
in Germany is swung this business.
Mr.. L. J. Holtzermann is president
and treasurer; and J. Holtzermann-
Madden secretary Mr.. L. J. Holt
hermann has been established here at
this place for some thirty years and
is one of the most widely and favor
ably known merchants in this part of
the city. Drop in and look over the
display stock at the Chicago Store,
for it is quite different from the usual
run.

NELSON SHOE STORE.

Three years ago this coming No
vember, the Nelson Shoe Store came
into existence. Mr.. F. E. Nelson was
born and raised in Minneapolis and
has been working in shoe stores in
this neighborhood for about nineteen
years. At his place of business on
1917 Franklin Avenue, everything in
the way of good shoes and depend
able repair work is done. The lines
most popular with the patrons of the
Nelson Shoe Store are the BEST
Made" Shoes, and Quality" rubbers.
Owing to Mr.. Nelson's long expe-
rience in the shoe line, he enjoys the
confidence of many people who go to
him personally for the same shoes that
they have worn for years back, know
ing that nowhere else can they be fit
ted out with such understanding and
painstaking care built upon experience
as is to be had at this place. The
Franklin Avenue store is away from
the down town district, but as most
everyone knows, Franklin Avenue is
fast becoming regular down town OF
its own and not the least of the dit
ferent commercial enterprises located
on this business avenue is that of the
Nelson Shoe Store. If you want
perfect fit, a reliable shoe full of solid
service, and at a fair price, go to this
store.
