NEW YORK, Dec. 10-Christ-
IN mas morning, what with the
kids shouting all over the place, the
buzz of electric engines and the
pitiful cries of mama dolls, nobody
has much time to notice father,
over in the corner quietly opening
his allotment of ties.
When the din has died down
later, however, you do like to see
a pleased twinkle in his eye as he
sits and looks at his loot.
If he's a putter, one OF those
new canvas golf bags will make
him chant to himself: "Can spring
be far behind?" He can tuck his
muddy golf shoes in it, put his
balls and tees in the extra pockets,
and accept a ride home in the
Smartest car at the club without
fear of messing it up.
Seat Cane Handy
The man who likes the excitement
of horse races would appreciate
seat cane. Then when he feels he'd
like to park minute, he takes his
stick, pokes it in the ground, opens
the handle into little seat :. and
there he is.
Another fad among horsen1en is a
leather watch chain with a small
gold bit in the center.
If father-or Uncle jim or that
wide-awake grandfather - whites
away the winter evenings with
games, we suggest you try Monaco
on him. Something like backgam-
mon, but larger and more exciting.
Aluminium playing cards will last
a long time, IN case he's fond of null
ling over a game of solitaire. They'll
withstand the wear and tear of long
evenings at bridge, too.
Lounging Robes Good
Then there's a robe. OF course
it'll be hard to wean him away from
his Old tattered one. But find a
good-looking navy flannel or a
handsome silk one such as we've
sketched and you'll see him Slip
ping into it to read or listen to the
radio.
And Of course you should see to
1t that some one else gives him
slippers to go with it. Soft calfskin
ones with leather soles and heels
or maybe cushion soles and heels.
In black, or red. or blue. or brown,
depending on the robe, of course.
Getting down to the smart, prac-
tical things which are on every
body's list this ysar-there' an UNI
brella. One with a good, sturdy
crook handle.
He'll Appreciate Gloves
And gioves-if he's had pigskins
and capeskins till he's tired of them,
surprise him with pair of boar
skins or deerskins. Handkerchiefs-
initiated. An onyx ash tray with
his fayorite kind Of dog perched on
it.

held the lure of something exactly the
opposite. Joe Barry's Ideas of penal
institutions were based upon the small
jail in Waverly where the incarcera-

else: the county institutions he had
seen here and there. places to be

the formidable aspects which

to aid in their perturbation.
Such thoughts. however. were not
In Joe Barry's mind in detail He
only knew that he was going to lose
his identity for few years In some
sort OF an institution. and that he was
to be paid ten thousand dollars for
doing it. He could call one thousand
dollars his own, and there were nine
thousand dollars more to come. He
was rich
1t was with this feeling Of wealth,
bathing his brain with anesthetic IN
guents, that he took an early train
out Of the city. A day out OF town !;
to do as he pleased. with no thought
OF anything except that he was

A Statement
Regarding 1882
BY Earl c. Sans, President
j. c. Penney Company.


Certainly we must find in the New
Year certain definite improvements.
We have gone through two years of
depressed business. Out OF this ex-
perience has come the realization that
we must accept things as they are and
build, not on a foundation of high
hopes, but on one Of basic facts as they
exist at present.
We have been absorbing losses. The
most unfortunate man or business, at
the present time, is that one which has
tried to balance between hopes for
profits that might have been and fear
of total loss of what remains.
The most happily positioned is that
one which has accepted the inevitable
losses, but has consolidated what good
has remained out of the experience.
Such a one can face the future with
the assurance that there are no accum-
ulated losses out of the past to threaten
future operations
Business has, in general, retreated
to its secondary lines Of defense and
has dug in. This is always strong posi-
ton because in it, business forces are
consolidated. Units are under better
control and better able to withstand
shock.
Those OF us who viii start to think
forward" and not backward" will
profit out Of this change in attitude.
We are out of the old positions. That
is certain. The thing to do is to make
the best of the new.
Price will be the strongest material
factor in keeping business going, dur
ing 1892; courage and the willingness
to accept our own position will be the
psychological highlights.
The extent to which the retail mer-
chant can expect business to come in
over his counters will depend entirely
upon the extent to which he is willing
to 60 in keeping prices down to the
absolute minimum.
This has already been demonstrated
in forcible manner in varying lines
of merchandise ranging from food to
Injuries.
In the conduct of retail selling il
, means that merchants must depend
upon lower prices stimulating more
rapid turnover They must look to
small profits on few turns Such mer-
chants as have realized this truth
about the present buying attitude on
the part Of the general public, are see
ing their efforts produce results.

them" Suddenly, he veered. whats
your name?"
A sudden construction rose in Joe
Barry's throat; he strove to cover II
with a cough. He felt his features
grow cold and suddenly hot.
"Bradley's my name, sir" he said
at last.
The next half-hour was hazy for Joe
Barry. He had come out to this small
town prepared to sell something that
was worthless, his physical freedom.
Then suddenly this freedom had be-
come paramount in his desires. Here
he had found an opportunity to weld
him strangely. an unfettered life
which fretted his Imagination and
tugged at him with ambitions which
until today he had not realized that
he possessed Then Uncle Dan had
asked his name and sent skeleton
of futility rafting within his memory.
He could not do this A contract had
been made and cash payment &C

how things turn out?" said the girl.
Uncle Dan and l were just talking
yesterday-that we simply must do
something to buck up the performance.
Then you came along and happened to
notice that accordion and-well, here
we are"
Yes. that's right, isn't it?' Joe
Barry forced laugh. Here we are!"

side him was saying. HE could go
out into some little town and buy
himself little business and home.
Or get farm If he liked that kind

But I wouldn't know what to do or

good time all the rest of your life
Think 1t over"
But"
KID" the man leaned closer. THAT
words licked more men than all the
penitentiarIes in the world Can 1t.
Look here" he said. "Ill give you to-
night to think it over. Keep the
money. Come to Louie's tomorrow at
noon II you're going to be welcher.
II not, get yourself on morning train
and hop out Of town for another good
time Just look the country over and

when you're really on the way. Well"
his tone had finality. Nobody ever
got anywhere by hesitating''
An hour later, Joe Barry stood
trembling In his gas-lit room. One
sweating hand was clasped about the
heavy roll of bills in his trousers
| pocket. What was few years to a
young fellow? A person had to get n
start In life somehow--better than
| half starving-half starving and being
Gagged up here in the city, In room
like this.
| He counted the money for second
and third time. He spread the GER
tificates out before him, one beside the
other, until they covered the entire
| center of his bed. There would be
nine times this many more, put to his
credit wherever he should say. Ten
thousand dollars would buy little
business, maybe a music store. and a
| home ia some small town. Start him
up In life where he could amount to
something 1t might be the beginning
| Of fortune.
After a long time, he counted the
bills again. Then he put them under
his pillow and tried to sleep.
