Cash SYSTEM ONLY
JAS. SLACK REVISES THE CREDIT
SYSTEM-GOES TO CASH
AND CARRY.

Convinced that the customer is
paying too much for the privilege of
having his accounts entered and his
credit carried, and for the delivery of
goods at his door, Jas. Slack has
abandoned the old charge and deliv-
cry systems, and adopted the more
economical and surer method of re-
quiring the customer to pay cash and
carry his purchases home. The store
was closed last night, and will reopen
in about a week. During the time
the goods will all be remarked, with
a view to giving the customer the
benefit of the saving effected by no
delivery and the elimination of poor
accounts. Hereafter, when it Is de-
sired to have goods delivered a di-
rect charge will be made to cover
that service.
1t is well known that the system
of delivery maintained by a store is
expensive for the customer. 1t is
equally well known that it is the pay
ing customer who pays for the ac-
counts which are not collected, as
well as the interest on those accounts
which run for some time. He may
not pay that latter item directly. but
the cost of using money is immut-
able, and it must be paid. Either the
customer pay it or the merchant goes
stony broke. And after a long and
careful study of these matters, COM
bined with the peculiar local condi-
tions, Mr.. Slack has determined that
for both his and his customers ben
eft he will deliver the goods cheaper
to the onsum by the elimination
of a lot of this so called service"

T. Therefore, it is well for both men
and women to save themselves as
much domestic establishment as pos
sible by at least picking out as life
companions those who have been
trained in the amenities of civilization.
Thus do they preserve themselves
from having their sensibilities unduly
lacerated and from precipitating a
state of civil warfare on their fire
sides. 's::"*.:.
For experience shows that the one
thing that neither husband nor wife
takes kindly from the other is criti-
cism of personal peculiarities. This is
easily comprehended, for both hus-
band and wife like to think that each
is an ideal to the other, that each ex-
mantle perfectness to the other, and
this fond delusion is shattered into
smithereenes the minute husband be-
gins to tell wife that she does not
know how to use her fork properly,
and that real ladies, such as he has
been accustomed to, don't perform
certain rights of their toilet in public,
or when wife corrects husbands gram
mar, or tells him that gentlemen don't
do thus and so. :...=
Moreover those who marry the
rough diamond husbands or wives
with a view to polishing them up run
another risk that is extremely danger.
GUS And. that is the danger to their
pride.
Love can stand a great many things,
but it is very seldom strong enough to
survive being ashamed of its object,
and there is little domestic happiness
in those homes where the man bushes
for his wife, or the woman for her
husband. ....
And, curiously enough, people are
more often ashamed of silly little
things than they are of big ones. A
man, is more mortified by his wife be-
ing i'll dressed, and awkward of man

LACkOF PATRONS
RESPQNS|BLEFOR
CLOSING MARKET

Lack of patronage sufficient to en-
able the retail department to be run
at. profit, as we'll as lack of proper
equipment to conduct the market eff
ficiently, prompted the action which
resulted in the permanent closing Of
this branch of the Territorial Market,
according to a statement made by
Charles S. Judd, superintendent Of the
bureau of agriculture and forestry.
The necessity for closing the mar
ket was taken up at meeting OF
the board of agriculture and forestry
October 90" said Mr.. Judd. at THAT
time it was ascertained that the mar
ket was not being run at profit to
the territory, but Mr.. LOngley, who
has charge of the market, asked for
another month, when he said he be-
lieved he could show better results.
when the full report for October
was made, about the middle of Nov
ember, it was shown that the market
had been operated at a slight, but only
a very slight, profit.
There were. however, other reas'
ons for closing the market. chief
among which was the lack of proper
equipment to care for the food, and
lack of sufficient funds to keep EN-
ployed necessary help. Though the
week the patronage at the market
was light, and easily handled by the
force of statesmen employed, but on
Saturday, when the bulk Of the
weeks sales were made, the help was
entirely inadequate to wait on the
customers and some of them would
always have to go before their time
came to be served. This created dis
satisfaction On the part Of those who
had to be put off.
Furthermore, continual complaints
were coming in about the way the
market was handled. and talk of in
efficiency was common. At the meat
counter, the meat could not be dis
played, but was kept in the lcebo%
and brought out when asked for
There. was no refrigeratlng plant,
such as up-to-date markets have, anu
the meat, when left out of the icebox
became discolored, and looked as if il
were not fit for use. Before the bu'
reau Of agriculture and forestry took
over the territorial market the legis'
Iature had been urged to appropriate
a sum sufficient to put in good re.
frigerating plant. and otherwise
equip the market for the proper
handling of meat and produce, but
this appropriation was not made.
Consequently, it was impossible to put
in the necessary refrigerating service.
"And there was yet another reason
for closing this branch of the market.
The original purpose of having a re-
tail department in connection with
the division was to create a whole.
sale market for island meat and veg
etables. The result has been obtain
ed. 1t is believed now that the local
will buy all the meat and
vegetables that the ranchers and
gardeners throughout the territory
can put on the market -.
"Of course, closing the market is a
hardship for those OF the city whr
had been in the habit OF making all
their purchases of meat and yege-
tables there. That is the unfortunate
feature of. having to close the retail
branch Of the market. However, the
percentage of patronage was so
about 300 weekly pur.
on an average, patronized the
market-that it was not the part of
