Would Hold Both. Senator Cummins has made known to some of his friends his desire to hold both of his present places, and there is precedent for this. It is understood, however, that some of his advisers have told him of a growing sentiment agalinst selecting one man for the two offices and that he prac- tically has decided voluntarily give up one of them. Should Senator Curtis be chosen President pro tem. the exacting of- fice of party whip would be left va- cant, and party leaders believe there would be difficulty in filling it. The to | place. duties of the office are such as to re- quire the almost continuous pres- ence of the whip on the Senate floor and that of itself is rogarded as making it a rather unattractive Mrs. Cora Laforge of St. Louis re- cently married for the thirteenth | time.

Would you believe the man who told you Hardly. that? However, there is a way of domg it that amounts to practically the same thing. It is to turn in, as part payment on your new, some old or used furniture pieces that you have no further use for. This is being done by Washington families every day in the week through our Exchange Department. This is how it works: First, you come to the store, look through our stocks and see if we have the new furniture piece or pieces, or the new rugs that you have in mind buying. At the same time see if our price is satisfac- tory to you. If you find what you want here (and most folks do) then tell us what used pieces you wish to trade in as part payment on the new. We will send our Appraisal Man to your home to look at it, and he will then and there tell you just how much cash we can allow you for your used furniture. If the amount is satisfactory to you the deal can be closed right there; we will deduct the Appraisal price from your bill; the same truck that brings your new furnishings will bring back the old, and that is all there is to it. For the benefit of those who do not already know, we wish to say that we repair and refinish this used furniture and then place on sale in our Exchange Department (entirely separate from new stocks), where it is bought by people who are glad to get it at the price. (You do these people a good turn as well as we.) Credit arrangement same as on ordinary selling. Drop in when by the store, or phone us, if there are any questions you may wish to ask. Welcome.
