The modem _business roan on the other hand considers thia LOOSE thinking and VERY misleading, because he knows beyond a doubt that the whole question of rent is one of RELA TIONSHIP TO SALES. A merchant might have a very low rent, indeed, but if it amounted to 10 per cent of the business lie did, it would be a very high rent. Any reasonable person is thou forced to disregard the back street claim, and, as far as that goes, the front street claim, too, and ask about that really vital thing—“relationship.” The meter in Ihc rornrr of this ad vertisement shows the rent account of Orchard & Wilhelm Company for 192d in relation 1o business trans iieted, together with the aitnation for other years in the firm’s history. Today our rent is cheaper than ever before because our volume of sales is greater this is the only relationship worth considering. In a furniture store a low percentage for rent is obviously unusually im port Ant on Account of the great space required. «nd it is generally a tiling that take* a period of year* to attain. « • * It is only right that Omaha people should know whether the store in which they have placed *o too li confidence ia operated econouii w and the tendency of those opet. < costs.

"Did you ever atop to think what a nice thing a track i» fur a train.' It saves the train a whole lot of thought and worry. All it has to do is to stav on the track and keep going " 'i'll* mother of a 12-year old boy was discussing the matter the other flay because she hud discovered that the track on which the youngster v.s* traveling whs heading for the ditch. We can t get along without track*, ■he explained. They make life aim pier. If It weren't for tracks we'd have to spend all our time picking out the road like * motorist cross ing Main street without a traffic po liceman or like an explorer picking a trail through the virgin forest. "Now that son's track seems to he lauding off Into the swamp* at the roadside instead of along the straight highway I will have to atop end travel with him every etap of the way until we gel another route organised," thle mother explained, aa she told why she was taking the^ioy out of s< hool and rearranging his w hole plan of life. '•you see," she explained, “without ;lie ludt, » regular old established plan, without a program that works. It means constant thought and care until we get a new way devised. "Perhaps It will be a different s, hool, perhapa It will he so many hours at home with n,e. or it may l„. a little w ork for'a w hile to teach lorn some valuable lessons; but what ever it Is It means constant thought. "Vou really don't know how thank ful a street .car ought to he for the rails it rune on," she added. Hut most of us hate the tracks which we travel on because we think them monotonous We call them ruts and get to imagining that they are so deep we can't even look over the tog, .Some people. It Is true, do get Into that kind of ruts, down wo deep that ' ou c*n t see * he hub of the wheel. Then the going aunt be pretty tire some. ltut a tra< k needn’t be a deep rut A track lies a top the roadway *n< baa long shining rails that go sums where. And the traveler who use them usually gets 'here a good dew more easily and more quickly th*t If he has to pick Ills way througl Getting tired of the grind, at w call it. I» human enough, wantiiu to ditch It all and wander at will l a romancer’* dream; but th# grind or the day’s routine. If you want t< call It that, is in reslltv a kind friem which make* the going easier a’" which makes th* getting there moiv certain. Throwing up this Job only tnesm starting another. Kvea the womat. who «a>* housekeeping i* a deadly grind and an apartment hotel look* like freedom and leisure and *" * kind of parad se would soon And her self as distraught as ever "t the Job of picking her way through the traf pr of things to do and th* way mlghl lead to nowhere in particular. i _-_l A Special Purchase Fine Silk Frocks ON SALE WEDNESDAY DAYLONG FROCKS, including those for street, dinner and semi-dressv wear.
