Richard Spillane Says:

St. Louis, Aug. 3l-There is not
the pesstmism in the Middle West
and Southwest regarding business
that you hear expressed in New
York.
On the westbound Pennsylvania
fiier there were many merchants
who had been East buying stocks
of goods, They reported highly sat
isfactory purchases. for they obtain
ed extraordinary bargains and some
of their experiences are Illuminating
The man from Oklahoma has a
chain of five stores in towns in that
State.
Il wanted. among other things, '
said he, young mems fall suits. I
saw some that sold $50 wholesale
when the market was high. The
manufacturer offered them at $3.50.
shook my head and told him
would want 10 retail them for less
than that He had sixty suits in the
lot. He came down to $24.50 and it
looked as if We couldn't trade. How
much can you afford to pay?' he
asked. Eighteen fifty l replied.
He said it was Impossible. but a
minute later he inquired If Id pay
cash. | said l would. then he Of
fcred If | would take l2O suits in
stead Of sixty he would let me have
them for $I9. l took them.
Il tell you, the buyer has all the
best of it in New York today.
Forced liquidation is compelling
manufacturers and Jobbers to go to
any length to dispose Of stock for
cash. For the first time in couple
OF years the retailer is able to die
tate. He has the money"
The Oklahoma man added that
there has been an end to cXtrava-
time goods were sCoffed at if the
price was moderate. Not now. The
people are counting their change.
The man from Nashville conducts
a department store. He has made
large purchases in New York.
81 wanted some ladies' dresses"
he said The jobber asked S22.
shook my head. He argued and !
shook my head again. Finally l
took my New York exchange and
asked him if cash was not an in
ducement. l paid $3.50 and
bought lot of suits"
The man from Moberly. Mo, said
he had most satisfactory trip. He
got his goods at prices far below
what he had expected. He told of
an acquaintance in New York who
started in business few years ago
with $4,000 and made S55O,OOO in
two years,
He was caught with a large
stock of goods when the banks began
to call loans" the Moherly man
added. He told be the other day
he had lost the $3.50, O0o original
capital before he got through. I tell.
you, some of those New York men
who overstayed the market have
had an awful jolting."

FILINGS.

The dentist is wise old owl
he grinds my teeth and makes me
howl; he shoves big fllings in
my face and sends me bills
with easy grace.
Says he, My friend, I'll have
to plug the cavities within your
mug with twenty-seven karat gold
for zinc, I'm sure, will never
hold
20. k, say l, and open wide to
let him haul his gold inside. For
all know it may be tin, or lead
or steel he's
showing in.
Indeed, the dentist l admire-he &
might plug up my teeth
with wire, or give me filings that
would rust-but somehow he has
won my trust.

New York City
By o. o. Mcintyre.

New York. Aug. al
This is a little puff.
For Mr.. Babe Ruth.
Who seldom has his name.
In the papers any more.
Unless he wallops,
The pill over the fence.
But there is another side.
To this mighty batsman.
That made hit with me.
And I am for him.
And I hope he makes.
A million home runs.
I was at the Polo Grounds.
With Eddie Cantor. the actor.
And Eddie doesn't think.
Any more of a nickel.
Than he does his right arm.
And so as he was paying.
For the entertainment.
We sat in the bIeachers.
And after a little while.
Babe Ruth came trotting.
To the outfeld.
While they knocked flies.
From the home plate.
And there was a little shaver.
There with his brother.
And they had a kodak.
And finally they sneaked.
Out OF the bIeachers.
Down into the feId.
And the little shy feIler.
Asked Ruth IL he might
Take his picture.
And Ruth stood at attention.
And the kodak clicked.
And the lad thanked him.
And started away.
But Ruth called him back.
And told the brother.
To hold the camera.
And Ruth got the shy one.
And put him arm around him.
And they had their picture.
Snapped in this pose.
And know that boy.
Was up before daylight.
To develop the film.
And TO show there is.
A law OF compensation.
The first time at the bat.
Ruth knocked the ball.
Clear out of the lot.

THE BIBLE
translated out of the original
tongues and from the edition
Known as Our Mothers Bible"
Deuteronomy, 3s Coutinpsd


Let Reuben live. and not die;
and let not his men be few.
And this is the blessing of
Juuah: and he said, Hear Lord. the
Eolce OF judah, and bring him unto
MS. people: let his hands be sum
clent 1or him; and be thou a help
10 MIN from his enemies.
And of Levi he said LET tbv
lhummlm and thy Urim be with
thy holy one. whom thou didst
prove st NASSAU. and with whom
thou hdst strive at the waters OF
Meribah;
Who said unto his father and
10 ms mother, l have not seen him;
neither did he acknowledge his
brethren. nor knew his own chill
dren: for they have observed thy
word. and kept thy covenant.
10 They shall teach Jacob thy
Judgments, and Israel thy law: they
shall put incense before thee. and
whole burnt sacrifice upon thine
altar.
IL Bless, Lord, his substance.
and accept the work of his hands:
smite through the loins of them
that rise against him. and of them
that hate him, that they rise not
again.
II And of Benjamin he said,
The beloved of the Lord shall dwell
in safety by him; and the Lord shall
cover him all the day long. and
he shall dwell between his shoul-
ders.
l3 T And of Joseph he said,
Blessed of the Lord be his land,
for the precious things of heaven.
for the dew, and for the deep that
coucheth beneath,
IA And for the precious fruits
brought forth by the sun, and for
the precious things put forth by
the moon,
Is And for the chief things of
the ancient mountains, and for the
| precious things of the lasting hills.
Is And for the precious things
of the earth and fulness thereof
and for the good will of him that
dwelt in the bush: let the blessing
come upon the head of Joseph. and
upon the top of the head of him
that was separated from his breth-
rem.
II His glory is like the frstling
of mis- bullock, and his horns are
like the horns of unicorns: with
them he shall push the people to-
gether to the ends of the earth: :
and they are the ten thousands of
Ephraim, and they are the thou
| sands of Manasseh.
is And of Zebulun he said, Re-
joice, Zebulun, in thy going out;
and, lssachar. in thy tents
19 They shall call the people un-
to the mountain; there they shall
offer sacrifices of Righteousness: for
they shall suck of the abundance of
the seas, and of treasures hid in the
sand.
20 7 And of Cad he said, Blessed
be he that enlargeth Cad: he dwell
eth as a lion, and teareth the arm
with the crown of the head.
21 And he provided the first part
for himself, because there, in a por-
tion of the lawgiver, was he seated;
and he came with the heads of the
people, he executed the justice of
the Lord, and his judgments with
Israel.
50 T And of Dan he said. Dan is
a lions whelp: he shall leap from
Bashan.
90 Z And of Naphtali he said, o
Naphtali, satisfied with favour. and
full with the blessing of the Lord,
possess thou the west and the south.

Let it rage and clear the air
Let the wind blow Justify

Let the rain bring from the skies
All the joy that in them Lies,
And make dusty earth as clean

New York. Aug. 81. - Travellers
for Chicago and points beyond to-
day found small comfort by taking
advantage of the old intrastste
rates to Buffalo. The present. and
past railroad fare from New York
to Buffalo on the New York Cen
trail is Sl4.21, and the Pullman.
S2.7O; total, 1851. The increased
interstate railroad fare across Penn
sylvania, Ohio. and Indiana from
Buffalo to Chicago is s2O3l and the
Pullman sass; total, &25l7. Com
bined, the travel cost from New
York to Chicago, with stop off at
Buffalo, is S42.OS. The new through
railroad rate from New York to
Chicago is s35.2S, and the Pullman,
S9.72; total, $45. Hence. all that ia
saved in stopping off at Buffalo is
s292, barely enough for light
meal, let alone room at a hotel.
