A trade triumph characteristic of Hale’s energy and foresight. rom qur watch tower in New York last January our silk captain saw the little cloud of de- mand rising upon the silk horizon. He went to work increasing his orders. Manufac- turers were s8 glad to get them they even shaved their then low prices. That demand-cloud kept get- ting bigger. Black silk raglans, skirts, even whole dresses, boleros and ribbons ate up silk faster than ever before, and still there was no let-up—nor no signs of one. One silk man after another kept telling us they couldn’t fill our orders. But we knew they could. They didn’t want to send it to us. They could get more money frcm some one else. We held them up to their contract. We told them it wasn't our money we were spending—that it was our cus- tomers’; that we had made a good deal for them and didn’t propose to see it fall through. ¥ - That demand-cloud still kept getting bigger till it almost shut out the sun—got so dark you could hardly see anything but black silks. Then came the dyers’ strike. Mill after mill shut down. Pricés got stiffer and stiffer. Deliveries kept getting later and later. But we still held our iron grip on those old prices, allowing the factory men more time for deliv- ery. Silks we expected in March have come strag- gling in last month and this. We are glad to get them—so will you be at these prices: Black Taffeta.

The money loss to the Government will be collected from the surety company that went on his bond. KNIGHTS OF HONOR. Yosemite Lodge of the Knights of Honor was visited last week by R. H.
