The first anniversary of the introduction of the Hoosier Kitchen Cabinets into Lincoln by this
store will be celebrated by a grand display of the famous Cabinets this next week.
Our first floor will be devoted to showing the many different styles in which the Hoosier is made.
If you value your time, your strength or the happiness of your home, you will appreciate the Hoosier
Cabinet. It is a combination of pantry, china closet, flour barrel, kitchen table and kitchen safe; so
systematically arranged that every inch Of space is utilized. The flour bin is built where it belongs,
the flour is always in sight, the sifter is attached directly to the bin, and everything is arranged for
convenience. Then there is a metal sugar bin, a spice cabinet, an extension alum inoid top, an all metal
bread and cake department, and many other equally useful features. .
This week ends the first year that Hoosier Cabinets have been sold from this store. It's the
Hoosier anniversary for Lincoln, and during the year 219 Cabinets have been sold. The popu
larity of this famous Cabinet can have no better recommendation than that.

lis Divine Right Will. Usurp the Right

Crowds' are capable of -the highest .
degree of self-sacrifice, becauseas a ;
rule, the element of self-interest is not
present in their action. While it would
seen that a crow should be mastered
by the combined influences of its var
ious members, it is a curious psycho
logical fact that the common denomin
ator of a crowd Is simply the' instinct
of the primitive man. There is a col
lective mind which is determined not
only by the highest character or by the
worst character-of Its members, but'
by the native qualities which are in- -
herent in the average man. ..And the
remarkable thing is that the stronger
man finds himself in a state of hypno
tism, which compels him" .to go, with
the crowd, even, against what would be
his calm individual judgment, if he
were capable of exercising it. But his
conscious personality has been sunk
into the personality of the mob. His
fortunes are tied up ' with the mass.
The crowd lacks responsibility, in the
ratio of its number. It does not reason
out things. It is impetuous. It be
lieves itself invincible. The crowd is
dictatorial. It will brock no interfer
ence. It will not tolerate opposition.
It is set upon its course, and woe" be- ,
tide anything or anybody that stands
in its way. '." . -:
Curiously enough it , is eager for
leadership It is quick to recognize
the man who has this power.
In all this there is great danger, and
it often results in , disaster. But us
ually the common people-are right, in
their native, elemental demands, for.
history has proven that "the voice of
the people is the voice of God." The
divine right of the crowd will eventu-, '
rally usurp; the plaJe of the divine right
of the king. Rev. Charles Stelzle,
Manufacturers of New York, Ohio,
Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin have
formed a sauerkraut trust. The mod
ern tendency to "cabbage" everything
in sight is irresistible. -':".,.'
