WARMING IS GIVEN AGAINST IMPOSTORS

The Salvation Army would like to inform the general public through the courtesy of The Republican that the people around soliciting, wearing uni forms resembling the Salvation Army and having tambourines, are not the Salvation Army. We have no solici- tors out of any kind, and any person selling notices or soliciting clothing or money or anything else is not from the Salvation Army.
 The officers of the army here are desirous that the generous public shall not be imposed upon by imposters, and anyone who is solicited at their resi- dences by a person who leaves an inn pression that he is from the Salvation Army is asked to call phone 4153 and oblige,

THE NAMES IN DICKENS

It seems surprising that the names of Dickenss characters odd though they were, should be found in real life, for it was from life that many of them were taken. Some, ase is known, were copied from the names of signs over business places, but that was not the novelsit's only source of selection. John Forster. his biographer found among his papers carefully drawn list of names, with the sources from which he obtained them. Some of the names are too extravagant for anything but reality: Jolly Stick, Bill Marigold, George A1uzzle. William Why, Robert Gospel Robbin Srubban, Sarah Goldsacks, Catherine Two, So- phia Doomsday, Rosetta Dust and Sally Cimblett.-Chicag Journal

Quantity selling, which is deemed
necessary to normal trade, has not
followed some of the low prices that
have been named by dry goods Job
bers, according to Thomas A. Fern
ley, secretary of the National Whole
sale Dry Goods Association. In a
letter to the association members. he
points ont that several leading Job
bers have complained Of the hand to
mouth policy of buying which re-
tailers still maintain. Low prices do
not stimulate quantity buying, they
say, but lower the profits on the en-
tire sale.
''In view of the greatly increased
overhead" says Mr. Fernley, "the
view has been expressed by manv
members that inasmuch as we are
forced to participate in the small
buying, or hand-to-mouth buying
policy, it viii be necessary to make
profit on each Of the small sales"
One member, he adds, has discov-
cred that his packing department he's
been doing from 80 to so per cent

Der of small shipments.

desired effect in restoring confidence to
