SALE
The response to our sale has been gratifying, but not surprising. It proves that continuous fair dealing with the public creates
confidence. We want you to know that we are giving nothing away we are not selling garters at 5c and other articles at a profit
to even up. Everything is going at original wholesale cost and everybody gets good merchandise far cheaper than ever before in
this city. The most remarkable feature of this sale has been that of our entire stock two-thirds of which, as you well know, is
comprised of the highest grades of fine merchandise, the popular-priced goods are moving out rapidly and the higher grades have
been practically unattacked. This i3 principally attributable, no doubt, to the fact that we displayed only medium-priced furnish
ings, and the boys were kept so busy handing out what was asked for that no attempt was made to sell the better goods. Hence,
those desiring fine Furnishings and Hats will now be able to select them from an almost complete stock at cost of the ordinary kind.

WASHINGTON, MAY 22 With
trembling; voice, W. P. Boland, of
Scran ton. Pa., chief accuser of Judge
Archbald, of the Commerce Court, told
the House Judiciary committee today
that the memory of his little girl had
led htm to fight the railroads and
Judge Archbald.
About 19M, he said, his family was
blessed with a little girl. The Marlon
Coal Company, of which he Is presi
dent, received Its name, he declared,
from the little girl, who now Is dead.
All day he had told of what he desig
nated as a conspiracy of railroads to
get hold of his coal oompany property
and of their alleged using of Judge
Archbald for that purpose.
"I did not like to see the word
failure' written over that name," tes
tified Boland. "I could have made
money In other businesses, but I have
lost money to save It."
Perjury Charge Not Feared.
After his cross-examination -Boland
vis asked about the statement on the
stand by tteorge E. Brownell. vice
president of the Erie Company, that
Boland might be aubjected to a per
jury charge If be swore to statements
he made In his original charges to In
terstate Commerce Commissioner Meyer
regarding the Erie Railroad Company.
"I didn't hear Mr. Brownell make the
remark, but If I had." declared Boland,
"I would have told Mm that If my
evidence resembled perjury as 'close
aa his did bribery I would be glad to
have the proper authorities prosecute
me."
Boland testified that Attorney George
F. Watson, of Scranton. had told, him
that Judge Archbold could Influence
two other judges In the Commerce
Court In favor of the railroads.
Nanaea Are Whispered.
"Did he give you their names?"
asked Attorney Worthlngton.
"Yes." replied the witness, who of
fered to communicate the names. In
stead he was directed to whisper them
to Attorney Worthlngton and Acting
Chairman Floyd.
It waa not the exception, but the
rule, that Judge Archbald was willing
to serve the railroads," he said.
The witness related the history of his
fight aralnst discrimination by the
railroads and asserted that on one oc
casion E. E. Loo ml a. vice-president of
the Lackawanna, said to him: -
"Tou have the devil' nerve tg at
tempt to sell coal along our line. -
Boland detailed th efforts of Attor
ney Watson to sell the Marlon Coal
Company to the railroads. He de
clared that Judge Archbald had Presi
dent Truesdale and Vice-President
Loomls of the Lackawanna come to
bcranton to see Watson.
"Watson told me." said Boland, "that
Truesdale declared at this conference
" 'What is thla judge to do In thl
case? Is this In the nature of a hold
up? I refuse to have anything to do
witn it- "
Judge to Be "Settled With."
Boland said he asked Watson why he
was asking the railroads $160,000 for
the property, when his company was
willing to sell for 1100.000.
"Well, we have to settle with Judge
Archbald," Watson was credited with
saying.
"I said, 'I thought the Judge was
helping you through friendship,' " con
tlnued Boland.
" 'Oh. the Judge would not take your
watch, but he might take your chain
Watson replied."

Face Completely Covered. Black
heads, Too. Lasted Four Years.
Used Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment and Face Is Now Smooth.
R. P. D. 2 Portsmouth. N. H. "I was
bothered with pimples and blackheads In the
worst way lor over four years. My face and
arms were completely cov
ered with them. The pimples
would come out on my face
and fester all up. They
would scab over, and male
my face sore, besides being
so disfiguring that I shunned
my friends. I tried facial
cream balms sad bensoin
with no effect.
"On Bight I asked a
friend what waa good for
pimples, and be advised me to try Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment which I did. I
would wash my face first with hot water and
Cuticura Soap, and then put on some Cuticura
Ointment, let it stay on five minutes, and then
wash my face again with the Cuticura Soap.
It would draw the blackheads out as nice, and
ths pimples, oh say. It was one grand relief
to go among my friends and be jolly again.
After using two cakes of Cuticura Soap and
two boxes of Cuticura Ointment, my face is
as smooth as if there never had been a pimpis
oa it. 1 cannot speak too highly of the Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment, and I hope others
will profit by them as much ss I have. I know
they will after glvinr them Just one trial."

Inglos swore that they were married
In San Francisco in 1901. He said that
the woman had done away with the
marriage certificate and that the court
records were destroyed In the big fire
of 1906. His contention is that, being
his wife, she is not entitled to recover.
