Tfie man who writes dictionaries says a -"feat" is "a flying mammal, possessing a pair of leathern wings which extend between the
fore and the posterior limbs." He might have added "and only flies about nights while brighter birds, including the great American
eagle, are resting from their labors." Leathern wings may do for bats, but it takes the Marconigram to keep pace with Time today
leathern wings arc things of yesterday. We, as storekeepers, strive to take time by the forelock to ever keep in advance of the
field down-to-the-minute in every modern idea in the merchandise we carry in the conduct of our store the service we give and
the values we return for the favors received from our thousands upon thousands of patrons. No leathern wings for us the wireless
or nothing! The leathern wing stores of our grand-daddies kept open night and day. The modern establishments of today close
evenings, thus giving their salespeople time for well-earned rest and recreation. This is especially applicable to Saturday, that the
army of helpers employed in our great "Different Store" may make proper preparations for Sabbath observance. Seme storekeepers

HILL "WILL FIGHT STRIKE HARD.
If Great Xortliern Men "Walt Out, He
"Will Sot Arbitrate.
ST. PAUL, May S. In an Interview
today on the possibility of a strike on
the Groat Northern Railway, President
J J. Hill said:
"If the men have voted to authorize a
strike, I can se no common ground on
which the matter can be further arbi
trated. They will be allowed to accept
the consequences of any action they mav
decide upon. Our Information is, how
ever, that the men are holding meetings
lor the purpose of opposing the demands
of the committee. I am quite sure they
do not want to strike, if left to act as
they would df their own accord.
"The quesJon tat issue is one which
does not affect the Great Northern di
rectly: ours is not. a double-header road.
Less than 3per cent of our freight mile
age is handled oy doubteheaders, and
this includes the pushers, to which no
opposition has been raised. About 1 per
cent of the men who would be called upon
to strike should the grand officers and
men decide to declare one would be di
rectly Interested in the properties they
would go out to vln'dicatc.
"We have good trainmen and have
agreed to give them the Increase in pay
they ask. but if, without anything that
affects them directly, they vote to go
out we do not want them to work for
