ASKING VS.. TAKING PRICE.

Not so many years ago merch-
ants had two prices, asking and
1aking.' The former was the
price they asked and would like
TO receive for goods offered, and
the latter the price they were
ready and willing to make sale.
AS could be expected, business
founded on this principle could
not long exist and today we find
but a small percentage stick to
1his far-fetched method.
Today we find all elements Of
chance removed in stores and con-
Germs which aim to build on a
solid foundation. Goods should
be marked in plain figures and
prices displayed so as to make
shopping as simple matter as
dropping nickels in a slot. The
;storekeeper who still sticks to
the obsolete method of pricing his
goods III secret figures proclaims
the fact he is not open and above
BOARD. Strange as it may seem, {,
man entered a store well known
from coast to coast and, upon
turning over the article, was CON
Ironted with the following in lieu
of price tag: G. d. x. What G..

Ii, perchance, you have made
che error Of pricing your goods in
a secret manner, do not let an
other day elapse before you re-
move all signs Of this practice
from your goods and substitute
open markings. It will SURPRISE
you to note how much added con
didence trade will have in Won,

lions are to be credited, business
prospects in the United States are
good.
It is true, there are some
"outs'' in the situation. Among
the more important Of these are
the labor troubles that are break
ing out in various sections and
which are to a greater or less de-
gree tending to check industrial
activity. Deplorable as these
are, they appear to be to some ex-
tent at least a natural outgrowth
Of existing conditions and will
have to be treated as such. It is
case where labor seizes upon
what it believes to be an oppor-
tunity for taking capital at a dis
advantage and enforcing it's de-
mands, with the result that both
the capital and labor Immediate
ly involved are seriously Grip
pied.
The other side Of the picture is
much more encouraging. The
yield Of agricultural products
promises to be large. The coun-
try's .keenest business seers and
prophets put the corn crop at
3O0,OOO,OOO bushels in excess Of
the highest record, and 100000
900 bushels in excess Of last years
yield the proviso, Of course, be-
ing interjected that early frosts
do not interfere with the outlook.
The cotton crop has suffered
somewhat from dry weather in
Texas, but east Of the Mississippi
River the prospect is said to bt
excellent.
Last year was a bad year for
wheat, but now a country virtu-
ally bare Of wheat awaits a
promising new crop. If this year s
wheat yield comes up to expecta-
tions-653, 100000 bushels-the
United States will have, after re
serving 1OO,OOO,OOO bushels for
seed, only 100000 bushels to
spare for export, the normal rate
for home consumption being $780,
! 100000 bushels. It is probable,
however, that this normal rate
will be materially cut down, for
there is now a general disposition
to economic in the use Of all
foodstuffs, wheat included, that
the United States may have a
greater supply to send to it's
European Allies Financial Re
view.

Sour Stomach.

Eat slowly, matsicate your food thor
oughly, abstain from meat for a few
days and in most cases the sour stom-
ach will disappear. If it does not, take
one of Chamberlain s Tablets immed-

most likely to cause sour stomach and
you may find it best to cut them out.

DRY GOODS
 BY MACHINERY NOW

The latest aid to serving patrons of dry goods department is the "Measuregraph," an instrument that measures the goods and computes the total price, according to the number of yards procured by the buy, and this, as the literature of the company says, insures "correct measurement and square deaP to the merchant, salesperson and customer"
 The first of the machines to be in- stalled in an Arkansas establishment have been added to the equipment of the Froug Department store, which has made reputation for promptly adopting every device or method to improve efficiency and give better service to patrons. The Froug store has put in four of these machines, and in future purchasers of goods by the yard at the Froug store will see the machine measure off the goods, and ring up" the price that is to be paid on the basis of the price per yard. There will be no need for the customer to do mental multiplication the machines do it for the customer and the salesperson. For instance, if the customer orders 3 5-S yards of goods, worth g cents per yard, the piece will be measured off, and a dieal will show that the purchase amounts to 91 cents.

ORPHEO THEATRE.

Dorothy Dalton, Triangle star, ap pears in "Wild Winship's Widow" g smart comedy written by John Lynch and produced under the supervision Of Thomas H. Ince, which will be exhib ited at the Orpheo theatre today.
 It is play of gayety, smart clothes and courtships. The settings are of Virginia, including lovely mountain vistas, the imposing southern mansion set among gardens of flowers and tall trees and the spacious ballroom, where Dorothy Dalton as the queen of the Hunt club ball presents the silver trophy cups.
 The star appears in the first part of the picture as a. weeping widow, ever devout to the shrine of her late hus- band. Later she is transformed into very witching widow intent upon enjoying life. The change in her disposition is due to the discovery that her hero has been a libertine, who had married her for her money. So she lays of her weeds, assumes dashing gowns and enters upon a round of social pleasures with the purpose of attracting Morley Morgan, a former admirer, who has feigned in order to win her com pletely from her mistaken hero wor- ship.

USE 15 BARRELS OF
 OIL ON ELEPHANTS

Arthur Hopper, a representative of the John Robinson circus, is in Pine Bluff today for the purpose of se- curing fifteen barrels of crude oil, which will be delivered to the grounds when the show exhibits here Mon day, Sept. "A. The fluid will be used on the elephants.
 eve oil our elephants to keep their skin from cracking during the hot dusty months" said MT. Hopper. "There are fifteen of the big beasts with the show and it takes full bar rel of oil for each elephant. The oil is applied with broom and is then thoroughly rubbed into the skin. When the operation is over the beasts look as well as the debutante who has just had a facial massage.
 Although the hide of an elephant is thick and tough, it is exceedingly sensitive and the hot winds and blaz- ing sun of summer dry up all the natural moisture. This moisture we supply by giving the oil bath. It's rather expensive. but then you know, a live elephant is worth more to us than a dead one, consequently, we spend the money with smile. Our menagerie man says the oil is essent- ial; that without it, the beasts would die"
