OF RETAILING ACCUMULATE OUR SPRING OPENING is not a formal function. The merchandise is not made subservient to the OCCASION. Such things belong to the cobwebs of Ancient School. Were we to organize one of the old classic "OPENINGS" we'd be running behind the age instead of AHEAD OF IT. "SPRING OPENING" here implies that the new goods' are in the shelves and on the counters ready for you to see perhaps to buy. We invite you to examine them. There is no obligation attachedto the invitation. Should a clerk urge you to purchase he violates one of our established rules. HE has been instructed to show things to you courteously and efl'ectively and under no cir cumstances attempt to press or persuade you into a trasaction.

Millions of dollars a year will be lopped off the bills for electric lights by an improvement made by an ob scure inventor in the lamps or bulbs which are used. Durability has been combined with the production of high i candle-power light and with, a small I consumption of current. The fragile I tungsten lamps which were hailed as a great improvement but which proved impractical because of the short life ! and high cost of the filament pro- duccd more light with the same amount of current or the same light I ivith less current. What the effect of the durable lamp will be upon the revenues of lighting companies can nut now be foretold, but the increased number of users of electricity hereto fore have made up for diminished rev enue per patron. .The rapid adoption of electricity for the lighting of farm homes makes this invention important in rural districts because the voltage of the hcHnc-made current is usually low and especially adapted to the new lamp. Tile filament used in the new bulbs is made from wire and has been found to stand as much rough usage without injury as the carbon filament which for ten year's has been in such universal use. CAUSE OF REVOLT. The Mexican revolt is fundamental ly and essentially inspired by the same causes as the revolt in the United States against the control ot the gov ernment in the interest of large aggre gations of wealth. Diaz has con trolled the machinery of the Mexican goveriinu'iil in the interest of those who desired to exploit the Mexican people, to gain control of their natural resources, and to create conditions against which the progressive forces in the I'nitcd States are now ram pant. Mexico, with which nature has dealt with lavish hand, has been a rich prize tor which capital combina tions have striven and arc striving to day. Mexican reforms will be more eas ily achieved when the press of the United States ceases to treat the Mex ican revolution as a joke. The strug gle of an oppressed and poverty stricken people for freedom and jus tice should not be regarded by the I essential') ridiculous. Yet the press associations have conveved dispatches which iiierred to "the opera bouft'c" war. It Htriiishcs an additional reason why the American people are turning more ar.d more to the mag.irines.
