If one is stole, out of work and has no money and in need of assistance they can alwaya count on having their Immediate wanta supplied by the generous-hearted Salvationists. ' Mr. Stanley told me he found It waa better policy to charge a small sum for the clothing than to . merely give it away. He. believes that independence la the keynote of self-respect and miti gates In a large degree the sting of ab ject poverty. Clothing Offered. The clothing offered for sale on the counters of the Industrial store Is good, and to the woman who is clever with her needle and has the knack of mak ing over things It must be a veritable boom. A cotton 6V wool waist can be had for the low sum of 5 cents, 15 cents buys aV excellent coat or hat, ladles' skirts come all the way from 15 to 20 cents and there Is nothing on the counters for over 60 cents. The man or woman who buys his clothing has a sense of freedom and Independence he ' could not possibly hope to have if he knew .himself to be an object of charity. There Is something In the fearless American spirit that instinctively re sents getting something for nothing, so the Industrial store pay for what they get. according to their means. There are nine men employed at the Home and they have three wagons in constant une with an extra wagon to respond to hurry-up calls, of which they have quite a number from people who are leaving the city or moving and want to get rid of their old furniture at the earliest possible moment. The employes of the Home are housed In rooms upstairs, consisting of a large dormitory, reading-room dining-room and kitchen. The meals are plain and wuolesome and of a better quality than la generally found in worklngmen's boarding-houses. As a further Inducement to Independ ence the men are paid a small wage In proportion to the work they perform. The salaries range all the way from to a ween up. . tloUArm,y Indue tr la?
