Fnrthor testimony of Mrs. Cornell was to tho effect that Mrs. Edholm had bean given a ticket for a trip to New York by her husband, and that she was glad to get It, but that she complained that Mr. Edholm had roused her from her morning slumbers to give It to her, and that she said It was very small and mean of him to buy the ticket at n cut ra'o over n certain route, for a limited time Instead of letting her inako her own choice of tho route, tlmo nnd rato o' the transportation.

Old potatoes can still be bought for around Jl a bushel, but In spite of this the new- ones arc finding a market. The price ot sugar Is a somewhat doubt ful subject at this moment, as no con tracts are being made for largo quantities. This Is believed to be duo to anbtlicr small reduction In the sugar tariff that Is to take effect shortly as a result of tlie graduated' schedule provided by tho new tariff bill. The best grades of coffee havo gone up a cent In the last week. Eggs arc still 2S cents, but are ex pected to come, down lower very shortly.

For this reason many people look upon a salo as merely a dealer's artifice to attract Business. In many Instances this may bs bo, but when a special sale Is inaugurated by BEATON & LAIEK CO., It Is genuine It rings true. It means an opportunity for everyone to get high quality at a distinctly low figure. Why Can We Afford to Offer Merchandise at a 50 Cut in Price?

Does it Pay to Attend Special Sales? Thoughtful people havo been asking this question for several years. Business methods have been such that many people would not make a purchase unless they were told that, there was a special sale on tho article which interested them. The big fakers have catered constantly to the speculative element in human nature, and indeed pushed the "Bargain (?) Sale" to such a point that they succeeded in working upon the dear public to such a degree as to make it almost impossible to interest it without a sort of Tabasco appetizer in the advertisement. The women who ap peared'before the committee sitting in Washington (for the purpose of inquiring into the high cost of living) struck a keynote in directing atten tion to Bargain Sales as a contributing cause. THOMAS KILPATRIOK & COMPANY do not have the kind of sales criticized. For nearly twenty years in season and out of season we have attacked FALSEHOOD and FAKE and sometimes at great cost. The public conscience is awakened and it is interesting to watch the antics of the fakers in their efforts to get under cover. Wonderfully interested, too, in the toilers. Somo of them are and to those who knr)w, it is amusing to watch their philanthropic (?) efforts in their behalf. "Morrison's Pills" as the Sage of Chelsea would say. Hy LA HACONTUUSE.
