REMEMBER ! This Is the Down-to-Date "Daylight Store" That Closes Every Evening at 6 o'Clock Saturday Included
A Tea-Table Talk:
FROM THE "OLD HOMESTEAD" 8TORE TO ITS
PUBLIC:
You know we close Saturdays as all days at 6 p.m. It's not
necessary at this scssson to keep open store evenings. A store
that tells yon it is, is a lying hypocrite that's all not to be
trusted; for if a store lies about one thing it will lie about ha
goods. That's plain isn't it? Let's get out of this hypocritical
strain, its bad for the liver. The meanest rogue living is a
hypocrite and has dyspepsia. ,
A CLERGYMAN SAID :
"Go to the mills and factories; see the grind of it all; see how
human lives are woven into cloth or riveted into boilers and
monster engines or machinery. The grind of it all the heart
lessness of employers! Ah, brethren; one half of the world
doesn't know how the other half lives." Tommy-rot! Non
sense! His liver was sluggish so sluggish he only looked for
doleful texts in the good book. Another minister said: "Be
busy; be urgent in this world's affairs. Man was put on earth
to subdue it, that his character, his mental and spiritual muscle
might be developed by the effort. Work is hallowed. There
was work in Eden before the fall. A man may be honestly .
rich; can honestly profit by the labor of others. The Word that
said there must be hewers of wood and drawers of water, inferred
that there would be owners of the woods and the wells em
ployers. There's too much stress laid on Lazarus and his reward.
That's merely a passage of comfort not a 'go thou and do
likewise.' Who got to heaven first and was there to pillow
the head of Lazarus? Abraham, the richest man of antiquity."
Yes, work is a blessingin the daytime. The latter viewpoint
was taken with a healthy liver and good digestion, 'tis a helpful
one. But don't crowd the workers after their day is done. The
stores that employ hundreds should close with the factories that
employ scores. Isn't that right, folk? Think it over. THIS
STORE CLOSES AT 6 P. M.
