Where's Dorothy?"
Dots mother asked me the ques-
ton before greeting me. Dots
father chimed in a moment later
with the same query.
She's home"

Immediately bristled with impor-
lance. "I'n go TO one of the agen-
cies and get her one tomorrow
morning"
I'm sorry; we're going to get
along without a maid for a while"
That was all the conversation I'M
til we got into a taxi. Then the
questions were renewed.
What's the matter? Did you lose
your job?"
NO, I still have my position. But
business is very bad"
What's that to you? You're not
a member of the firm" (This with
nasty emphasis).
I'm a member OF the firm when

My salary has been reduced"

A sure test of quality
merchandise is this: DO
you see it advertised con-
sistently and persistently2"
If you do, it is good value.
No sane merchant or man
ufacturer would continue
to spend good money ad-
vertising poor merchan-
disc. When he urges you
to buy his product. he is
stalking his good name on
your satisfaction. And he
can't afford to lose!

JAP DISARMAMENT.

One statement regarding disarma- ment has come to be the worst sort Of bromide-everyone agrees to il. and there Is nothing more to he said.
 But a Japanese Militarist paper Is quoted as having uttered 1t. The newspaper declared that America must be willing to make some of disa rmament otherwise no Power will accept his (Presidcnt Harding's) suggestions. Disarmament must be mutual, and no country caring for peace will oppose it."
 There have been noticed here re- gently various accounts of the pro gross of the movement for disarma- ment in Japan. Progress seems to be there, and the people seem to be advocating the idea.
 But the people of Japan are not Japan. Whether or not Japan, as Japan, favors the movement in good faith We have right to question. The Tap controversy. now reported settled. now reported in doubt. in- tensines that feeling on our part And VIC are watching Japan perhaps more than any other nation in this matter
 After all perhaps it is we'll to re- peat that bromide thing-wo had best go along with our program Keeping prepared and following the 1916 naval program. until there comes the day when the disa rmament will be mutual in fact and net.

 Comments have been made in all departments. IL is said. that the ad- ministration had too much energy. But it is probable that there is hope in the hearts of all United States sub of the old doorkeeper would prove a true prediction-they can't keep it up.
 But why not? It is perfectly true thai for years the men in high posi- tions in this country have gone about their serious work more or less leis- urely. True IL Is that the have worked hard when they got at it. but the getting at it took some time.

 Certain men. heads of great busi- ness concerns. have proven their executive ability to such an extent that a very few hours of each day, when they give their orders and hear brief reports from the heads of de- partments, have brought better re- suits to the concern than would have come from the most painstaking eff forts of another less competent man spread over long hours. They arc the geniuses of business. They com mand tremendous salaries and they earn them.
 President Harding has never claimed to be such a man, and it is believed that there is nothing in- spirational about him. Members of his Cabinet are of the same stamp. some of them lacking his ability no matter how hard they try. President Harding's administration, therefore. will be one wherein such success as comes will be the result of hard work and long hours.

IF OUR purpose in offering the Golden Jubilee Sales
1 had been the ordinary routine of clearing stocks, 1t
would have been a very simple matter; because our July
clearance sales, with their radical discounts, are over.
They have been successful. We needed only to make a
little extra effort TO complete the clearance Of all depart
ments.
Instead of that, however, our buyers have been busy
for weeks, in all of the great eastern markets, looking
high and low for things you will want and need, buying
widely and generously and at advantageous prices, so
that you might have more than a sentimental interest in
helping US celebrate our fiftieth anniversary. We owed
you a period Of unforgettable value giving. We have

100000 AS70R'S
BRIDAL GIFT TO SON
Elder ViscOunt's Trust Deed
Shows Substantial Provision
for Capt. John Jacob.
ANNUITY GIVEN TO BRIDE
Friendly Suit Filed Here to
Judicially Settle Terms for
an Accounting.
lNNUITY GIVEN TO BRIDE

The Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany, as trustee under a deed of trust
made by the late Viscount Astor OF
Hever Castle, filed suit In the Su-
preme Court yesterday which revealed
among other things. that Lord Astor
made q settlement OF S4.000.000 on his
Younger SON. Capt. John Jacob Aston
upon his marriage to Lady Violet
Mercer Marine in August. 1916.
The suit Is q friendly one to obtain
a judicial Interpretation of some OF
the terms of the trust and for an order
permitting 1t to render a judicial ac-
counting. It was filed with the County
Clerk by Geller. Rolston & Blanc Of %
Exchange place. attorneys FOR the
trust company The bulk OF Lord
Astor's personal property in the United
States is included in the trust. which
was made for the benefit of his two
sons, the present Viscount Aston and
Capt. Aston. and their children. II
does not include the realty holdings.
NlScount Astor Favored tne captain
marriage, the papers disclose. as on July
1915. he directed that IL the marriage
take place within the following six
months $4,000 a year should be paid
TO the bride during her lifetime. Lady
Marine was the widow OF British OF
ficer killed early In the war.
The trust estate consists OF many
millions of dollars Mr.. Geller said
last night. but would not give a closer
estimate of its value. A modification
of the trust agreement made in 1915
provides that IL all OF the 100000 for
Capt. Astor remained unpaid at the
time OF Lord Astors death, the half OF
the trust fund set aside for the elder
son should be diminished by enough to
make up the amount.
The trust deed and letter q instruc-
tions of 1916 divided the trust into two
equal parts. one for the elder son. Will
lam Waldorf. now viscouni and his
then living, and the other for
Capt Aston and his possible issue. Since
viscount Astor's death the present Lady
Aston has given birth to two more chill
dren and Capt. Astor has two children.
1t is the rights OF these children under
the trust that the trust company seeks
to have determined.
Lord Astor died October s. 1919.
