Mr. Shantz, the general sald: “Fifteen dollars gives every woman cholce of any colored suit in the entire stock, running up to $40 in value. Expensive wooltex sults are included at $15.

A Talk About How to Run a Newspaper BY GEORGE AL Every man who has not tried it, thinks that he can edit a newspaper, write a comic opera and manage a hotel. I still believe that I know a lot about the hotel business. When I went to Chicago to help Victor F. Lawson uplift a community that did not want to be uplifted, I noticed every day, in going to the roof-garden, a large and well-lighted apartment in which a number of nobby gentlemen were seated at desks talking about circulation. Most of them were smoking and the more they smoker the more enthusiastic they came about thke circulation.
