Second Week's Sale N l&X Stock from Receivers at 50c $
o -
Another series of matchless bargains pave the way for big selling this
week. A careful perusal of this advertisement must make the fine savings
apparent to all. Last week's shoppers were highly enthusiastic over the
values. Later arrivals make the second installment 'even more attractive.
Rarely do prices on needed dry goods of all kinds touch so low a level.
The N. Y. Dry O'ds Exchange 'was a wholesale buying syndicate forced
into receivers' hands. Through them this stock was sold at 50c on the dol
lar to Bennett's in conjunction with a large Boston house. In the trade it's
conceded the best "buy" of the year. The goods are all seasonable, with
values firmly established at twice the prices we paid or that you now pay.

Some Things You Want to Know
The German Advance The Tariff as a Factor
r
...
Great as was the political genlua of Bis
marck, he would not have been able to
unite Germany Into a compnet Imperial
stat had It not been for the trlff. The
cuet'Wni union or Zollverein, formed be
t 18i8 and 1838, made Prussia the cen
ter of commercial Germany "by consent of
all the German states but Austria, long
. before any of the non-Prussian states
would have tolerated a suggestion of Prusr
(Ian political domlnacy. The customs Par
liament, or Zollparllament, which met In
Berlin In 18C8 had for Its Immediate purpose
the revision of the treaties constituting the
Zollverein. It was composed of two cham
bers, the upper one representing the sev
eral states and the lower composed of
deputies chosen by universal suffrage of
the people.
It was die first national assembly In
Germany which recognised both the prin
ciple of state soevrelgnty and the doctrine
of popular control of government, and was
modelled frankly on the lines of the Ameri
can congress. In It was represented all
vt the states except Austria, and all of the
German people except the Austrian.
It did revise the constitution of the Zoll
verein, but it also did much more. It
proved to the south Germans that their
commercial interests were too much in
common with those of the north German
confederation to permit further political dif
ferences. It furnished an object lesson In
the practical workings of a national Par
liament The Zollparllument resulted in the
imperial constitution of the German empire
Just tit the Annapolis convention on In
terstate Commerce resulted In the constl-
tutlon of the United States of America.
It was tariff reform that gorged the chain
which for the first time bound up the ma
terial Ihteros'.s uf all Germans outside of
Austria than those uf one nation. When
that economic union was accomplished,
nothing remained for Bismarck to do but
lo provide the dramatic situation which
would uppe.il to the putriutlc Imagination
ht tht Hplc to 1)1 liu: about political union.

In hla dreaming, who was first to apply
to the problems of practical governmental
administration the knowledge of the fact
that all mankind Is divided Into two politi
cal parties one hungry and naked and the
other filled and clothed.
Bismarck .was a Junker a born aristo
crat, lie believed that the princes of
earth, with their aristocratic retainers,
should rule the people of earth. He never
was a democrat, and he never was able
to trust, the people to do anything wisely,
even In their own behalf. He tolerated
some forms of democratic government be
cause he had to do so, but he sought al
ways to control the masses by appealing
to their Imagination, which they possessed
In abundance, rather than to their reason,
which Bismarck believed they did not have.
Bismarck probably did not believe in the
divine right of kings, but he did believe that
It was better both for princes and people
to leave the control of the government to
the hands of the princes. Believing this,
he examined Into the history of the past
and consulted the spirit of the age the
Zeitgeist to discover how the rule of
princes mltrnt best be guaranteed In per
petuity. !
He found that princes always must fear
two thlnn the greed of other princes and
the hunaer or the people. He and all his
fellow Germans were suffering under the
accumulated burdens of a thousand years
of war among their prince. The Zeitgeist
told him that the most splendid 'princely
throne In Europe had tottered and fallen
when the Paris mob cried In vain for
bread. He had seen his own people, when
he was a boy. defy their rulers because
they had no food. He had heard the In
furiated cries of the hungry workmen in
England when they overthrew the corn
laws and humiliated the British aristocrat.
Other men of his time also saw and heard
these thins, but only Bismarck attempted
a rational remedy.

machine which would be as effective
in abolishing poverty as was the Prussian
army In destroying political enemies.
The spirit of the Piussluti army organ
isation, which was the spirit of Bismarck's
statecraft, was the extinction of the In
dividual will In the general will. Bismarck
thought of the German people as he
thought of the privates In the Prussian
army as mere parts of a machine. Hi
error was that he believed, that the hunger
and cold of the people could be satisfied
merely with food and raiment. He did not
know that men always will be hungry;
thbt when they are filled with bread and
meat they become hungry for other things.
This was Bismarck's fatal error, and In it
Is to be found the explanation for the dis
content among the prosperous German
masses of today,
In the half oentiiry Intervening between
the downfall of Napoleon and the advent
of Bismarck, Great Britain had enjoyed
practically the sole use of the steamship.
the railway and the great number of newly
Invented mechanical devices for manufac
turing. Germany had been torn with' the
petty quarrels resulting from disunion;
France was occupied with politics, neve
knowing at sunset whether the dawn would
find It kingdom, empire or republic. The"
United States was held back by the great
struggle over slavery and the natural dif
ficulties of pioneering. Great Britain hid
discovered that the age of machines mad-
of Iron and brass and steel, dilven by
steam, also was to he the age of machines
made of flesh and bone, driven W brains.
The English machine set up on this mode!
was a trad machine. It extended till over
the world and It brought to Its controllers
a steadily flowing streum of Kolii. But Its
ei pincers, who were wise enough to caru
assiduously for their machines of Iron and
rteel and brass, did not deem It neces
sary to devote Flmllar attention to the'r
machines of flesh and bone. That was the
JIHtish mistake.
About the time that Bismarck began to
set his economic machinery In motion the
Americans, recovered from civil war, began
to take advantage of the possibilities of
this newly found force of organisation. But
they applied It only to money making and
not to money saving. They Instituted their
machines In banking houses, and carefully
excluded them from , the council chambers
of slate.
Bismarck did all that the British had
dune, he did all that the Americans were
doing, anQ then he did much more. He
over every man, and It made each man
do the thing which seemed In the mind of
the - state to be most necessary for the
advancement of the military power of Ger
many, of the political Influence of the
Hohenzollerns, of the' economic - welfare
of the state, and of the social betterment
of the German race.
For the political, economic and social
organisation he used as his principal Im
plement the tariff. He took Into his hands
the control of this agency of life and death
to trade, and, so used it as to make the
Zollverein represent ta highest material
Interests of every ktnil and condition of
men in Germany. He had no free trader's
conscience and no tariff baron's rapacity.
He used Intelligence in the study of the
tariff problem and skill in its application.
Forty years have passed, and now Germany
Is the most successful Industrial com
munity on earth, and, -considering its
natural resources and congested population,
Its people suffer less from poverty than
do the people of any other nation. And
yet the Germans are filled with political
discontent.

MUSICAL CLUBS OF WOMEN
One Ilendred Thousand Members
Are Now Fostering; the
Art.
The woman's musical club follows the
flag. Skimming through the pages of the
Utest musical directory, the Inquisitorial
eye discovered the existence of the Ladies'
Amateur Musical club In Skagway and
Nome, Manila and Guam. Even Honolulu
and Ponce, In Porto IUco, are In the record.
But, sad to relate, the heavenly art, which
soothes the savage breast, la as yet without
classified disciples in Jolo and Samar and
a few other haunts of our untamed little
brown brothers.
A little arithmetical persistence reveals
1.000 of these womep's musical clubs In the
record, with an aggregate membership of
100,000 and a geographical universality cov
ering every urban' community ' of Impor
tance under the Stars and Stripes.
The woman's musical club Is entirely In
digenous to American life and It la to the
credit of the American woman that, having
attained leisure she has employed It In
acquiring higher standards of llvlmr. The
l,0..OuO enrolled club women of America are
an evidence of this Ideal and music, the
most widely seixed upon as an avenue of
growth, in the feminine campaign for cul
ture. With growth In membership and Increased
musical activities,, the musUai club, partic
ularly In the larger cities, has evolved be
yond -a parochial influence. Through Its
engagement of native artists and foreign
virtuosos. Its support of the great or
chestras of the country, when on tour, and
Its promotion of music festivals, the music
club exerts a potent Influence on our na
tional musical development. John Warren

Mission Work la ladla.
Rev. J. H. Gardner, a missionary, wtiose
fields are In India, In speaking of the mis
sion work among Hindoos,' said that the
people of India are rapidly becoming Chris
tianized, and that the Methodist church la
one of the leading churches in' the con
version of India, and at present has eight
conferences In that country.
Mr. Gardner has been engaged in mis
sionary work In Indki for the past twenty
six years, being connected with the South
India conference. "A great deal of oppo
sition has 'been encountered by the mission
aries," said Mr. Gardner, "and they have
been persecuted greatly, especially by the
native police. At one time, when I was
preaching in the streets of one of the cities
of India, 1 was stopped by the police and
told not to preaoh there any more. I Im
mediately reported the matter to the police
commissioner, from whom I received the
reply that If I did not wish to be molested
I would have to cease preaching, which I
refused to do.
"In India tha task of converting the
natives Is very hard, for those who become
converted are regarded as outcasts by their
people and are forced to give up their
families, friends and relatives. This dif
ficulty Is overcome to a great extent be
cause of the caste system which exists In
that country. The great laboring and agri
cultural elapses, comprising about eO.noo.OOO,
are recarded as outcasts by the other
clashes, and ll Is among these that the
work of the missionaries Is most easily
carried on.
Mow to I'oanbat Error,
"The prevalence of doubt and unbelief
places a very heavy burden of responsi
bility upon the preacher and pastor," ob
serves the Christian Intelligencer. "He Is
constantly confronted with the problem
how best to meet and withstand the Insid
ious assaults upon the verities of our holy
religion, which characterise much of the
literature of the day, and notably the sec
ular pi ess. The temptation Is strong to
state and combat erroneoua views In the
pulpit and to Indulge In polemic preaching.
This Is a mistake.
"Desirable ar.l necessary as may be the
safeguarding of his "people against ship
wrecking of faith, and laudable as may
be the desire to meet the difficulties which
may be troubling them, the wise and Ju
dicious pastor ever avoids the controver
sial attitude. The stating of error In the
pulpit, though It be for the purpose of
refuting It, hat a two-fold danger. It may
suggest skeptical notions to those who have
never entertained them, and the answer
may not be as convincing to the hearer as
It is to the preacher. The one' safe course
is to hold fast to the presentation of pos
itive truth.
"The best safeguard against error Is a
thorough grounding in the great truths
of the gospel. The best protection against
malaria Is thorough sanitation, and pesti
lential error Is to be fought In the same
way. The building up of a vigorous Chris
tian character- and life by preaching the
great indisputable doctrines of the word
of God Is the best and surest preservative
from lapses Into unbelief."

"We are living In an age of Investiga

tiuths handed down from generation to
geneiatlon In the Bible have been vigor
ously attacked during the present time.
All through the centuries the Bible has
been acknowledged as the word of God,
and now scientists and others have at
tacked It and aro trying to point out many
Inaccuracies which they say are found In
the holy book.
"Are we entitled longer to consider the
Bible the word of God? Are we to have
It in front of our churches? Are we longer
to instruct children from it?" he asked.
"If the Bible la a book of fables, as some
historians would have It appear, then we
would have reasons to doubt Its teachings,
but we have every reason for believing
that .the Bible la true. Historians claim

"There Is nothing In the two stories of
the creation of the world and the creation
of man," continued Rev. Mr. Williams, "to
unfettle the fulth of anyone who Is -disposed
to believe In this book. The world
Is a product of the divine intelligence! Man
Is a product of earth and ak. The Bible
is not to be blamed for the religions wars
any more than the man who Invents n
labor saving machine for the mlserv and
poverty produced among working people as
a result of his Invention. The ciii(ts
of today have accepted as one of their
axioms that 'God Is Immense in creation,'
and I am convinced thAt the time Is not
far distant when the llf f rencs and un
