TO THE 'FRONT.'
A BEAUTY PARLoR

B. B. Smith, the ready-to-wear
merchant Of Lexington, has added to
his display rooms, 301-315 West
Short street at the corner of Mill
street. about 5000 square feet of
floor space and 100 lineal feet of
show windows, making this the most
desirable ready-to-wear business
rooms not only in Lexington, but in
any other place in Kentucky. The
finish inside and out is in mahogany
and the many columns through the
building are provided with box mir
rors. The walls show the artistic
touch of decoration. The furniture,
every piece Of which is modern, to-
gether with draperies and floor COW
erings, make this the real city store.
Our story thus far is only an intro
duction, for such store needs to be
and is filled with the most stylish
creations of the pattern designers. 1t
matters not what you want, be it for
a girl of sixteen or the more matur-
ed woman, it is to be found within
this beauty store. For a time Mr..
Smith has courted the Mt. Sterling
contributors to Lexington and the
more they trade at this store the
greater the attachment. Be blindfold-
ed and placed in these beauty parlors
and your dreams would be of city
of 100000 population and more. The
change is worth seeing.

strikers coming second and the new en-
ployees taken on during the strike third.
The union leaders say they have never
considered and will not consider any
thing but return TO work with the
strikers ranking exactly as IL they had
not struck at all. When strikers win
they get back their seniority. when there
Is compromise they usually get IL
back, when they lose a strike they go
back TO work as new men. This Is the
traditional practice. and the union lead
ers say that as the men who walked
out haven't lost the strike and are un-
willing TO compromise in the matter Of
seniority, there Is no reason why thcy
should yield an inch.
Not Particular on PhraseoloSy.
Apparently they are willing to have
the settlement terms framed in almost
any way so long as what they actually
mean Is that the seniority Of the strikers
is preserved How the railroads feel
about this cannot be learned. as the cx-
ecutives have agreed TO let Mr.. Cuyler
do all the talking, and he feels that the
conference has not reached stage re-

ether stands. The men want to, go BACK
to work under the terms or July 81, anu
the roads want them back. the dispute
over seniority. which never was a

il is easy of settlement and the unions
are trying to show how to dispose of
the seniority matter without going into

cent public The railroads can easily
help us to a settlement by recognizing
the seniority principle and applying II 10
