We Are Pleased to Be
Told and We
Believe 1t

DCllcNS IL
TO he true, that what we are doing to
serve the public through our simple,
straightforward, storekeeping these
days, is most gratifying.
It is common to have people say
"that there are no make-believes
about your Store"
That new clerks make mistakes and new
delivery men fail to get deliveries promptly
and that some old clerks are careless and
sleepy will always happen and has to be
accented as the human failure in spite of all
efforts to have it otherwise.
As to our building-where is there
another like it in this or any other city in
the United States?
With more business than ever, it is
never OvercrOwded.
II is clean, healthful, freproof and from
its top floor down has four fireprooted
brick. .and-stone fire towers capable of
emptying any number of people from each
floor.
Please think over the great
clearance of our high-cost stocks
which we made four months ago to
prepare for recent events.
We also put stoppage on the inten-
ton to further ddUance prices.
We frmly adhered to an edict to not
be bound.
We are not no,U, and lv;H'not be in the
future, loaded up lDith heavy high-cost
stocks.
Nor lviH Ue suffer ourselves to take
over the storages of manufacturers to
rush big sales.
Some of us who were country
boys remember that warmed-up
dinner of what was left of former
meals never seemed very eatable
and. as merchants, we shall rot make
up warmed-overs Of merchandise,
out of date, shape and season, to be
unloaded upon our good customers.
First of all. our merchandise must be
of dependableness and of freshness.
Second-everything must bear the
lowered price as fast as reductions can
be secured
This Store, with it's opportunities
to purchase for cash and its we'll
known capacity to aid the manufac-
turers to dispose of large quantities
of properly made goods, will always
be favored as helpful to keep busy
the workers they employ.
We are not spectators or fancy
advertisers-just plain old-fashioned
merchants.
Be free to visit the Store and
judge it by what you see.

JEWS NOT EASILY CONVERTED
osrmon to Which They Were Annually Forced to Listen Failed of lts
 Purpose.

In John Evelyn's diary of January !, 1645. there is a notation of pecu- liar ceremony which seems to have been of annual occurrence at Rome. It was a sermon preached to a con- pulsory congregation of Jews, with a view to their conversion. MT. Evelyn says "they are constrained to sit till the hour is done. but 1t Is with so much malice in their countenances, splitting, humming. coughing and mo- ton. that 1t is almost impossible they should hear a word from the preacher. A conversion Is very rare."
 The Zionist movement. which has gone on for years and received . new impetus by the changes made in mid ale Europe as a result of the world war, was outlined In a poem written by Robert Browning during his resi- dence In Italy, probably about the mid de of the nineteenth century. He calls 1t "Holy Cross Day"

Fri9htfuI Experiences.

"What was my most thrilling expe- rience7" unused the ex-pilot. "Ah! I could never forget 1t. It was bright starlight night, but the lurid flashes around us obscured all else as we sped through the air. The advancing enemy was hard upon us, while all around we heard the weird, savage music so terribly familiar. and the thud as of thousand falling meteors.
