If several sales items appear on.
the same sales slips, ring the one
that, in your mind, represents the
best bargain that you bought, and
mail it to the Shopping Editor of
The Herald, accompanied by
letter (not to exceed $50 words)
telling why this bargain appealed
to your needs as the best buying
opportunity for you on that par
ticular day.
How to Write Letter.
The way in which your letter
impresses the Shopping Editor as
to the value of the article received
for the money spent will count
most. Neatness and phraseology
are but secondary considerations.
The size of the article pur-
chased and the amount of the
price paid will not figure in max
ing the prize awards. The pur-
chaser OF a paper of pins stands
the same chance of winning on
this score as the purchaser of a
piano or an automobile.

Voluntary Prisoners.

During the early weeks of occupa- tion of Port-au-Prince by the Aneri- can marines the patrols rounded up seventy-three prisoners. The jails be- ing unspeakable at that. time, these prisoners were parked out in a clean, roofed over corral, where of course they were regularly fed. A few days after the collection was put into the corral the captain of marines asked his sergeant to go in and make care ful count of the prisoners, as he feared some of them might have escaped. The sergeant counted over his haul threo times. Well" said the captain, "are they all there?" "I can't make it out, sir" said the sergeant, i've put seven ty-three of 'em in here on Monday and there's a hundred and two of 'em, mostly soldiers, in there now."-George Marvin in Worlds Work.

MACMILLAN PARTY
 SAFE IN GREENLAND
cr0ck0r Land Expedition Heard
 From at Last.

Jnst as plans were being discussed for the dispatch of third relief ship word was received that Donald Mac Milan and his Crocker land expedition are safe. .@
 The American Museum of Natural History was informed by a cablegram sent from Dr. Harrison J. Hunt, sur geoD of the party, from the Farce is- lands on his way to Denmark.
 On July ?, 1913, the MacMillan expe- fiftion set out in quest of Crocker land, discovered and thus named by Admiral Peary fn his search for the north pole. The sponsors were planning to send the Neptune, under command of Pea ry,s skipper Captain Robert Bartlett, fn July tc. find the MacMillan party.
 Dr. Hunts cablegram shows that the expedition except Dr. Hunt and W. Elmer Ekhlow, the geologist, are at Etah, Greenland. At Godhavn, about halfway down the west coast of Green land, the message indicates, Dr. Hunt parted company with Ekblow and con- tinued by sleflge to Hoistenberg, where he caught the ship Hans Egede. The steamer Denmark, the second relief ship, appears to have reached North Star bay, about 15O miles from Etah, easily reached by sledge,
