Hlcctric Light Is the magnet that draws trade. The
bright store Is the "hypnotic eye" of business. People can
no more resist the attraction ol a brilliant, lilectricully lighted
store than they can resist the clarion call of a brass hand.
Is your couietitor with the Klcctricnlly illuminated show
windows, bright interior and sparkling Hlcctric Sign getting
nu advantage over you ? The moth never llutters around the
uullghtcd candle! Uptodiito stores nowadays consider
shop-window lighting a necessity, whether they remain open
after dark or not. Competition foices modern methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with Hlcctric
light will make many a sale "the night before." Hlcctric
light coiiiih;1s attention, makes visy the examination of your
display, shows goods in detail ami fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect the Hlcctric Sign. It is soliciting
"tomonowV business every moment it is lighted burning
your name in the public mind. It is a solicitor that never
becomes weary never htops work costs little.

When .Mr. HowHcr rose up from the
dinner tnblu the other evening, ho
panned through tho kitchen Into tho
hack yard, nnd after three or four
minutes the cook cnino In to Mrs. How
nor mid nuked:
"Ami can you tell me whnt'H roIiik

"How do you mean?"
"Why, Mr. Hownor Is looking for

8he win mwured thnt nothing In the

nml when Mr. Ilowscr enmc In he wan
asked If ho Imd been hunting for n
lost pockollcnlfc.
"It was Just n preliminary lnvcfitlgn

"liM'eNtlgatlon of whnt? I wish you

What would wo have known of nat

Mr. Downer didn't reply for live mill

yelling out at her. When ho had final

ho replied:

"Very well," replied Mr. Howser In
resigned tunes, realizing that any ob
jection wore- uselosa.
Mr. Howuer put on ht fall overcoat
nnd hat and took up hi cane nnd left
the house. As soon a ho got outsld

Heard a Cricket.
Mr. HowBcr walked on for half a
mile nnd then reached the suburbs.
lie had 110 sooner struck vacant prop
erty than tho voice of n cricket reach
ed him. It was n plnlutlvo voice. It
seemed to say that tho watermelon
season was ovor, tnlnco plos had bo
come tho fashion again nnd that tho
world had no longer any use for crick
eta. Matches In plenty had been
brought along, and the nmatcur nat
urallst wan soon down on his knees
and Hashing the light over the grass.
After Ave inlnutca ho eamo fuce to face
with a cricket. It wns nn old shell
back, who hnd been hopping about nnd
singing all summer and now had a
tired and dusty look. Ho even looked
Into Mr. Bowser's eyes with what
seemed to be nn appeal, He didn't
wnnt money, but ho certnlnty had cold
feet and wns thinking of feather bod,
Ho hadn't burrowed and he hadn't
frozen to death, and the discovery
didn't solve tho problem. The Insect
had Just taken a stiff hoppctytchop
when a gruff volco at Mr. Howscr'B
elbow demanded:
"Now, then, whnt sort of n rnckct Is
this? Whnt havo you tost here on my
Iota thnt you aro lighting tnntches to
see by?"
"My friend, I nm looking for crick
ets." replied Mr. Ilowscr ns he rose up.
"W-hn-tl"
"Looking for crickets, I nnld."
"Then you'd bettor havo tho keeper
of nn Idiot nsylum looking for youl
Whnt In tho dovll do you wnnt of
crickets?"
"l)o you know whether cricket bur
row In the earth at this tlmo of year
or simply die of tho cold?"
"Do I know? Do I know?" shouted
the man na he begun to swing hi
nrniH nbout. "You must think I'm n
lunatic to nak me such a question ns
that. I'm tho owner of that saloon up
there, nnd I havo no time to bo around
bug hunting. Hy whnt right do you
couio on my property without Haying n
word to mo?"
"Why, If you aro so mighty partial
lur nbout It"
"Well, I nm thnt, and you got off,
Vou may bo hunting for crickets, nnd
you may bo hunting for geese, nnd you
can t go too soon to please me."
Mr. Howser went lie renlliod that a
row In tho neighborhood would dlo
turb till tho crickets for a mtlo around.
lie continued his walk for half a tnllo
nnd then turned aside from the strcot
ngaln. There was uo saloon In sight,
and tho nearest house was forty rods
nwny, He now caught thu voices of at
least six crlckots, and he paused to In
terprct them. A uenr as lie could
mnku out, half of them wanted hot
beef ten and wooleu blankets, and tho
other hnlf wnuted to borrow spade
nud plcknxes to do their burrowing
with. Ilu got dowu nnd lighted more
mutches, nud bo was carefully paw
lug over tho cold ami brittle grans
when ho heard n horao coming on a
gallop. He hnd hardly straightened
himself up when a mounted policeman
halted twsldo him nnd asked:
"Who are you and whnt aro you do
ing hero?"

"Don't try to guy me, old man. I
wasn't liorn yesterday."
"I'erlinpa you uover hoard of a crick

"Oh, yo, I havo. I know a cricket
from nn old vng the minute I set eyes

Mr. Ilowsvr fell back on hi dignity.

"Well, I wouldn't have believed there
wns a man fool enough to go bunting

"Aye, she'll havo to," Added tho sa-
loouUt. "I'm sure tho old cock was
