The department store must do the same thing on an im mense scale without the element of personal service. Individuality, which is a store's trade mark. is. a difficult, com plicated affair, and is revealed only in a store's service. Individuality is that group of impressions inseparably associated with a certain store in the minds of those who shop there. Stores are sepa rated into different classes with policies that appeal to all sorts and conditions of customers. Some use premiums, some different forms of amusement, prizes, contests, to popularize and gather about them a clientele. This store had in mind from its very inception to attract trade through the merit of its merchandise only to gravitate trade to its wide-aisled, well-serviced, perfectly equipped, commodious store, to render trade permanent. By courteous treatment, polite clerks, prompt exchange of pur chases and no misrepresentation of merchandise to create indi viduality, not to any one class but to the general public who seek to secure the greatest return for the sum total of its expenditures.

DESERTION CHARGE DENIED Wife of Late President's Son Says She Is Too Dumbfounded to Give Thought to Answering Suit. Rival JTot S.nspected. SAN FRANCISCO. July 24. (Special.) Mrs. Elizabeth Chapman Grant, of this city, today professed utmost sur prise at the divorce suit on the grounds of desertion brought yesterday at Goldfleld, Nev., by her husband, Jesse Root Grant, youngest son of the lato President and Civil War General. Mr. Grant has been following mining for the past six months In Nevada. Mrs. Grant resides in Washington street with her son. Chapman Grant, and her mother. News of the institution of the suit reached San Francisco a few hours af ter the sailing of Grant's eldest brother, Ulysses S. Grant, Jr., with his bride, the former Mrs. -America WIU, for a two-year wedding trip. Ulysses. Jr., Is the oldest son of the warrior President and Jesse Root Is the young est. The other children of the fa mous General were the late Frederick Dent Grant and Nellie Grant Sartoris. "I do not understand why my hus band should charge me with deser tion," she said. "I have always been devoted to my home and my children. Woman Says Phe I Deserted. "His business, that of a mining ex pert, has taken him away from home much of the time in the 30 years we have been married and It would appear that I have been the deserted one, not he. "I used to accompany blm on his trips throughout the country to out-of-the-way places of the world or to New York or other big centers. But I couia not keep up. because my chil dren needed an established home. So I settled down In San Diego, where we had our home until a few years ago, when he came to San Francisco. "There was never time when my hus band did not know that we would be glad to welcome him home, either for a brief or long visit, or to stay perma nently, but lie has preferred to stay away. "I do not believe that there Is an other woman In the case, as has been hinted. If there Is I do not know of It. It is not a preposterous idea, though, and while I do not charge any thing of the kind. I should not be sur prised to learn that such was a fact. Marriage Trip Xot Made. "Mr. Grant did not come to San Francisco to the marriage of our daughter a few weeks ago. He was In Nevada and the trip would hve taken less than three days of his time, but he refrained from coming. I have not seen him for more than a year." When Miss Nell Grant, the only daughter and. elder child of the couple, was married on May 15 last to Lleu-tentnt-Commander William Piggott Cronan, United States Navy, It was whispered the nuptials were made un ostentatious because Lieutenant Cronan was divorced and. preferred a Justice to a Protestant clergyman. The family gavo out the Information that Jesse R. Grant had arrived from the East on the same train with the bridegroom. It was. considered sur prising' that Miss Grant should choose a prosaic wedding In a dingy office, but the solution now seems clear; the bride would keep the fact of her parents' unhapplness from the world. With a simple wedding and no guests It would never become known that her father did not come from Nevada to give his blessings to his only daughter on her wedding day. Mrs. Grant says she la so dumb founded at "her husband's action that she has. not given thought to answer ing the suit. She says she has not engaged an attorney and does not yet know whether she will Contest the di SEND THE FOLKS To North Beach. Season tickets 4; Saturday to Mon day 13.

RHYTHM GAUZE CLOAKED Scanty Clothes Give Freedom to Movements, Explains Seattle Girl When Sunrise Exercises Are Stopped by Officer. SEATTLE, W8h, July 24. (Special.) At 4 o'clock this . morning Officer Gauntlett entered Volunteer Park from Fifteenth avenue North, and five min utes later encountered the most amaz ing experience of his career. There was a pink flush In the eastern sky. A filmy mist hung over the snow clad peaks of the Cascades. Officer Gauntlett was too tired and sleepy to be Interested in the approaching sunrise-He stooped to drink at the fountain, when there came to his ears the sound of voices singing in plain violation of the ordinance forbidding music after 10:30. He looked around a potted cypress and saw six maidens, garbed In gauzy robes which were "as transparent as a child's lie." - They were singing and dancing, all six, barefooted in the dewy grass. They danced hand-ln-hand. Their slen der bodies swayed and writhed, their bare, white arms described mystic cir cles. They danced with rhythmic grace, round and round and round. Then hands parted and each m1Hn danced alone. The rhythm changed iruni easy grace to aDanaon. The song, too, changed, and took on a wilder, sad der cadence. "Hey," he shouted. "Hold on." The maidens halted. "Music," said Gauntlett, wiping his brow, "is forbidden after 10:30 at night Go home and put on more clothes." "Oo-oo Oo-oo," squealed five maid ens. But the sixth, though blushing furi ously, faced the officer with dignity. "You do not understand." she said. "We dance and sing here every morn ing. As for these robes, they are the latest word in classic simplicity, and give to our bodies an absolute freedom of movement. Thus robed we can give rhythmic expression to the highest thoughts. By means of the body we express the mind. Now, if you will per mit us, we will return to our homes, as the sun has risen." Assistant Secretary Miller, who is ac companied by Billings men.
