THE COST OF STYLE

It would be interesting as well surprising if the
amount "Sye" costs the United States yearly could be
ascertaned While the men would have to answer for a
small portion of it the greater part would be chargeable
to woman for it is the changing styles in her wear
ing apparel that is responsible for the larger part of the
cost. ,
The merchant, especially the merchant of the medium
and smaller cities dealing in womens goods has in the
changing styles his greatest problem M He does thm mot know 0d
hence has no of judging to the size OF his stock
For this he takes big chances if ne orders mucn
selection as he would like the demands OF his trade
actually require On top of this he must jump the price
pretty sffiy to protect himself against sudden change
of fashion short time ago the ladies, God bless en-
were hobbled and practically hog tied so far as their
skirts were concerned The material in those hobbled
skirts was practically worth about what it would bring
as rags when the fashion changed What the merchants
had left in stock was dead waste for woman might as
well be out of the world as out OF style.
1t is the same with every change of fashion, the mer
chant is left with lot of dead stock 1t would be indeed
an interesting story if the total Of the loss thus
caused could be learned Not only the actual loss in the
dead stock but the increased price the wearers must pay
in order to protect the merchant against this loss

events Of the night, were numerous young hood
lums and gangsters from Lowell, Lawrence and
Boston. These men, it is believed, worked under
cover Of the ill-feeling against DR.. Leyden to
create reign of terror in the city.
Leyden's Record.
One of Leyden's associates declares that he first
heard Of the man some years ago a book agent,
selling book entitled why Priests Should Wed, )"
by the Rev Justin Thurston, Baptist minister
of Somerville. He says that many of Leyden's
strongest talks taken almost directly from
this book
Leyden puts much emphasis in his addresses
the assertion that the Catholic church is trying
to undermine the public schools of America in
order that the parochial schools may replace them
and the Catholic faith thus be propagated
It is said that Leyden's account of his change
of faith dates from the time he attended series
Of lectures in Peoples Temple under the auspices
of the Boston Patriotic Lecture Society. For
eral years after he employed printer in
the composing room of Boston newspaper. Then
he took up his evangelistic work. He is about
60 years old. He lives at Al Brastow Avenue,
Somervie.
'Why Priests Should Wed" is the book
which Rev. Justin d. Fulton of New York
wrote, and which Anthony Comstock revised,
edited, and approved.
It isa terrific arraignment of the double
lives led by priests and nuns.
During DR.. Fulton's life, the Roman church
made no effort to prosecute him, or to answer
him.
The Pastor Of our Baptist church at Thorn
son, Rev. DR.. w II. Young, knew DR.. Full
ton, and regarded him as a man of superb
courage, absolute veracity and unspotted
character.
Pray take notice of three things:
(D Not word can be said against the
responsibility of Leyden, or against the pro-
priety of his lectures, or against his right to
be heard;
~ It is admitted that he was about to
lecture IA support Of oar supreme zaac, which
prohibits the appropriation of State money
to churches and church schools
(3) The Roman Catholics wanted to muir
der him, because of his defense of the highest
law Of this Union.
The more you think about this, the more
important and ominous it will appear to you.
