NoBetter Example of the Weakness
of Words
Was ever given than in the inadequate and superficial de
scription of the vastness and intensely interesting from eco
nomical and elucational standpoints features embodied in
the GRAND EXPOSITION AND EXPLOITATION OF
AMERICAN PRODUCTIONS as being demonstrated this
week by Olds. Wortman & King. Like a vast network of
railroads, the exhibition covers every section of America,
and embraces its products. We congratulate our good con
freres upon their continuance of co-operation in the splendid
work mapped out by this modern giant among American
stores, and their conduct of it along strictly original (?)
lines. Stores, like individuals, cannot become imbued "with
too much of -the American spirit. It elevates and broadens,
and lifts one out of sordid ruts onto higher planes, where
man's humanity to man is best exemplified. American cus
toms call for shorter hours of labor, which same means a
.higher price for the laborer's product, which must mean a
higher wage for the workingman as supply and demand
regulate price. Less goods produced in eight hours than in
12 goods demand, better price the artisan gets it. Time
enough in ten hours of a day to sell American products.
Let's all get the American habit "BULLY"! Fingers
muscular and dexterous, with values for Monday and all week
beckon you today.
The World Drives to America's Shops
to Be Shod
The great shoe manufacturing centers of America supply
the denizens of every known land with footwear. Land at
an English, South American, Australian, or any other for
eign port, and the first sight Hke to greet the eye is numerous
shoe-cases bearing the imprint of a well-known Lynn, Brock
Ion, Haverhill, Wakefield, Marlboro, Worcester, Mass., or
Detroit) ,Mich., maker of good shoes. We know thousands of
smart dressers adhere to a certain shoe price because the
shoes at that price never fail to wear well and conform to
the shape of the foot, as well as to Fashion's requirements.
Oftentimes that price is $5 or $6. We buy every pair of
shoes that comes to this store with a view to its being worn
by some particular woman. So one may see of necessity
it must fulfill every requirement of, the $5 or $6 shoe. The

Xioodon ttat the 4en of Norwich, de
voted his sermon a week ago to a pro
test against the prevailing habit of young
people using the cathedral during holy
Service as a place to carry on flirtations.
To make the dean's words more effec
tive, 70 stewards and one detective have
been enrolled for the purpose of pre
venting flirting In the nave. Any young
person who has a frivolous air Is com
pelled to so. into, a front seat where the
eyea of the congregation are oa Wa.
If tk flirting Is not the stopped the
young person Is taken In hand and
marched out of the' building.
The necessity for such detective service
In church was thought to have disap
peared long ago. Car tag the first two
centuries of settle ws-nt In Kew Eaglaad
the churches were on the lookout for mis
creants, and tithing nea were appointed
to keep watch ef the young people. These
detectives walked up and down the siMe

OxxMfooally one would cry out In a se-
pulchral tone In the midst of the sermon:
'1 perceive there Is whispering In the
gallery' and all eyes were turned In the
direction of the eSesder.
Lov6-saaktag was rigidly loeked after
and all other nonsense of a similar k!uL
For the last W years the tithing man
has disappeared, even fresa the aaost re
zaste rural districts of New Eaglasd. It
was thought that a growing -sstf-respect
and the toStwnoe of rsBtthBcss sentiment
In the way of self -raUaaos had done away ,
with the necessity for a constant watch
ing, during church service.
Of late no cemplalats have been made
of conspicuous love-malrfag in churches
oa this side of the water. Perhaps ear
