PIZITZ'S NEW STORE
Montgomery People Quick to Patron.
 ize Moderate Price Concern

The Montgomery Times has the follow ing account of the opening of the Pizitz new store in the state capital:
 Never in the history of Montgomery has there been such throng at a sale of ladies' ready-to-wear The reason was evident in the lowest prices given here since before the war Long before the opening hour the scrowds stood in line waiting for the doors to open.
 The three floors soon filled with eager buyers. So many crowded fin that the selling force. the largest ever assembled in store in Montgomery, were unable to wait on them all.
 Ihere was not room. to pass in the aisles. Only the first in were able to get near the counters, filled with attrac- tive bargains. Customers near the coun- tres cheerfully passed the goods to those behind them, and a jolly spirit prevailed the whole store, as the crowd jostled to- gether- All expectations were more than realized. The best of it is, too. that these bargains are continuous Every day they are offered at .Pizitz, and close watch on their advertising will save many dollars in every household"

 Use discretion in the cashing of checks-pay particular attention to persons presenting check in pay ment of goods or to be cashed,
 Do not make change in a hurry be on your guard when persons present large bills for change.
 Avoid having much money on your person at all times.
 Trade early in the day to avoid return home late with goods or money in your possession. When travelling on streets or roads, use every effort to be accom- panied by some other person.
 
 same watched until you return. Store or shopkeepers should ar range to have an assistant who will remain with the store or shopkeep- ,. CT until the store is closed st4@ The large stores should be wired k ' with buttons and buzzes for giving % alarms in eases of emergency.
 Make frequent deposits in the bank to avoid having much money on hand.
 When in crowds--crowded eleva- tors, stores or around depots or other places. do not keep pocket book or money in the hip pocket; when people begin pushing against you look out there is pickpocket and his assistants getting ready to take your money.
 Keep your automobiles locked se- curely and be sure to remove the key.
 An adherence to these sugges- tionS will prevent loss and trouble"
