To interpret the defeat of Mrs.

urgallant. It was not, indeed, a
slap at women at all, but at a

IN THE NATIONS CAPITAL
(By Stephen James)

Washington continues to bt
the Mecca for visitors. and thi.
summer the most popular spot
in the Capital City undoubtedly
has been the Washington monu-

During August it is estimated
that 1929 persons viewed the
city from the peep holes in that
historic marble shaft. On one
day alone the new elevator, re-
Gently installed, made so round
trips in four hours, carrying
1920 persons.
On holidays and Sundays the
facilities of the lift are taxed to
the limit, but many prefer to
climb the 898 steps that lead to
the platform above. This pre-
ference is shown by those who
naturally would be expected to
take advantage of the convent
ence afforded, but grandmothers
and grandfathers are among those
who match endurance and SIAM

of stairs many beauties are re

stones taken from famous bat

WHAT IS
"VALUE.:i?"

n. When the reputable Washington merchant adver
tses for example, mems $40 Suits, $25," do you
know what he means? Relying on the integrity of
advertising you have the right to believe that the
suits, similar for all practical purposes may be
had in reputable stores at the time the advertise
ment appears for not less than $40 Then the claim
is bona fde and the value established.
If, on the contrary, the same suits or those similar
in quality and workmanship are available for less
than $40-the claimed value-the statement is in
accurate and untrue.
Some merchants do not use value claims Some
apply them only to former prices in their own stock
while still others them strictly the basis set
forth above. ..,.-~ ~.:.
