A girl had a pet Canary. Its abode was in a plain, but neat cage. The Canary sang beautifully; it was well taken care of.
 The girl became Wealthy. She bought a Solid Gold Bird Cage. That didn't satisfy her! She heard of a Dia- mond Studded Cage, and finally purchased it.
 Meanwhile, the Canary became weaker and weaker. When the girl got home the Canary died. She then real ized "A Fine Cage Doesn't Fill a Birds Stomach"
 Fine fixtures and embel- lishments alone, in a store do not satisfy the Public's desires. They don't wear or use them. What the Public Wants is Good Merchandise, at Fair Prices.
