I THE BETTER THE STORE THE BET TER THE ADVERTISING PAYS. Your own observations in the store-world will confirm this truth. PUBLICITY is bad only for a bad pro position. It is just as surely good for a good one. What IS a "good store"! One that really SERVES THE PUBLIC, protecting its pa trons as to VALUES, not merely as to PRICES. , There , are many stores in this city an swering to that definition completely. In "' every city there are always some stores that do not. . . . - An important phase of a GOOD STORE'S SEpVICE TO ITS PATRONS is its news paper advertising. This Bhpuld be complete, frank, informing. It should tell, the store news as fully as a good newspaper tells the news of tho day. v Perhaps the W possible NEW POLICY for tho GOOD stores of this city to adopt would be that of DOUBLING THE AD VERTISING SPACE THAT THEY USE thus giving them "elbow room'.'; 'giving .them bigger opportunities for telling, their - patrons, in detail,' about every selling event, about every bargain offering, 'about every dollar's worth of new stocks.

Msthed ef tho 'Fabled Bird's Life and Ossth and Rebirth, The ancient triidltlou concerning the phoenix has Introduced Into nearly ev ery luiiguagotho tmhlt of applying that nmtie to whatever Is slngulur or uu coiiituou among Us kind. According to ancient writers, the phoenix was a bird of great bcuuty. about the size of an eagle. A shining and niont beauti ful crest adorned Its bond, lis plumage contained nearly every tint of the rain bow, and Its eves spnrklod like din mom!. Duly one of these birds could live si a time, but Its existence covered a pe riod of WW or yenra. When Its life drew to a close the bird built for Itself t funeral pile of wood and arojnatlc spices, with Its wings funned the pile Into a flame aud therein consumed It self. From Its ashes a worm was pro duced. out of wblt-u another phoenix was formed, having all thy vigor of youth. The first care of the new phoenix was to solemnise its parent's obse quies. For that pun It made a ball of myrrh, frankincense and other fra grant things. At UcllopolK a city In lower Kgypt, there a uuigtilOcent temple dedlrated to the suu. To this temple the phoenix would carry the flagrant ball and burn it on the ultnr of the sun as a sm rifle The prkwt then examined the register and found that exactly . years or exactly (Kin years had lnped since that same cere mony bad taken phu-e.
