IT'S A GOOD THING TO REFER to the reputation of a store, before making any important purchases therein. Before you buy is the time to look up the matter. Ask questions. Find out if the store you intend pa tronizing keeps its pledges. Be sure that you learn if it sells the qualities it claims; if it treats ts customers honestly and fairly, then, if satisfied, buy there. Do all the asking yon wish about us among your friends, and that you will result in your com ing here regularly.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2&Free passes may be issued to bona fide excmploycs of a railroad who are traveling to re-enter the service. Passes cannot be extended to the families of employes who died a nat ural death while in the service of railroads, although the privilege is accorded to the family of employes killed in the service. These are among the rulings announced by the Interstate Commerce Commission yesterday. The commission holds that a rail road may provide in its tariffs that whenever, because of mishaps, or ac cidents, passengers delayed beyond their ticket limit or so as to curtail their stopover privileges, the conduc tor or other agent may by endorse ment on the ticket extend the time to cover such detention. This is to be honored by succeeding conductors on the company's line but no carrier can provide such extension over lines other than its own, except when pro vided in a proper joint tariff. The commission also has author ized changing (by November 30) the terms of short time excursions far tariff under certain conditions. When the excursion is limited to not more than three days, changes may be pos ted one day in advance in two pub lic places for these reasons: Change of dates or . meetings, ex tension of. the return limit, addition al selling dates, additional top over privileges, etc If the excursion is limited between three and thirty days cancellation of tariff or change in its terms may be made on like notice of three days.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2&Women turned upon women yesterday in the cause of the ballot. And It was no less a person than Dr. Anna How ard Shaw, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Associa tion, who did it. Dr. Shaw, addressed art enthusias tic rally of Chicago suffragettes held in tha afternoon in the assembly hall of the Fine Arts building. Rep resentatives of ten local suffrage or ganizations were there and every representative was looking for some thing interesting. None expected just what came, "One of the great obstacles to, women's suffrage we have in this country today," said Dr. Shaw, "is our great body of idle women. The industries that occupied their grand mothers do not occupy the grand daughters and this has taken from the woman the opportunity of being producers of wealth. "They are consumers, not produc ers. We are depriving them of all incentive to intellect. We are using the state's money in educating them and then throwing them back on the state as dead lumber. We are send ing girls out from our colleges with the desire to. serve and are giving them nothing to do. They are not enough professions to go round and what else' are we offering them?"
