Kejolworth Wants Maix. An effort
is being- matte to have a 12-inch main laid
from the Section Line road through
Kenilworth and the Williams tract, but
action is held up on account of uncer
tainty relative to the dedication of
streets in Kenilworth, and also, as to
who shall pay for the main. The streets,
wlnle laid out, have never been dedi
cated but measures to have them dedi
cated have been taken through the City

GEORGE STRAUSS MILLER, a clerk
In the office of J. P. O'Brien, gen
eral manager of the Harrlman lines In
this territory. Is leading a troubled
life. The fact that he Is new to the
business has callod down on his head
a number of practical jokes from his
fellow clerks. Shortly after his enlist
ment In the Harrlman service, he was
sent out for the time-honored "hand
car report." He wandered from de
partment to department, and from floor
to floor in the labyrinth of offices In
the Wells Fargo building, vainly pur
suing the elusive statement which
seemed ever Just beyond his grasp.
Finally weary, footsore and hot, he re
turned to report that It was evidently
lost.
Yesterday he bought a new overcoat
at a downtown store and this inci
dent provided another laugh for his
fellow-workers. The coat was left at
the store for a few alterations, and
one of the clerks in the office tele
phoned to Miller, representing to him
that a mistake had been made In the
price of the coat and that It would
cost $40 instead of $25.
Miller, who adheres to the belief that
a bargain should hold, and that a
mistake of this kind on the part of the
salesman should be the customer's gain,
hurried to the store, where he demand
ed an explanation and called for the
coat to be produced at the original
price. The resulting surprise on the
part of the salesman and the confu
sion of the young railroad man can
best be imagined.

Why Courteous Saleswomen, Superior Talent and Moderate
Prices are always found at Fraiey's.
At Fraiey's, where correct style and exclusiveness are supreme, shopping
is a real pleasure, for courteous and experienced saleswomen gladly exhibit
their most beautiful creations, without urging one td buy.
Situated in a district where rents are low, Fraiey's can profitably pay the
high salaries demanded by expert millinery artists and competent saleswomen.
Ilaving an unusually large clientele, they are enabled to purchase direct
from the wholesaler, instead of through the local jobber. Extremely moderate
prices are the direct result of the saving thus effected.
