A dozen years ago we inaugurated in Philadelphia the unheard-of idea of buying furniture away ahead of the public demand, and when manufacturers, at certain dull periods of the year at their works, were glad to sell at the bare cost of the making. Coroner Delap, of Brooklyn, was ar- raigned before Magistrate Naumer, in the Myrtle Avenue Court, to-day on charges of accepting bribes and of padding the pay-roll of his depart- ment. On the advice of his counsel, Freder- ick E. Crane, Delap watved examina- tion, and the case was referred to the Grand Jury. District-Attorney Clarke made no ob-| Jection and will begin at once to Ywe- pare evidence for the consideration the September Grand Jury. Coroner Delap’s bail will remain aj $5,000. +) Daniel\’s. ae: reer Men’s Summer M Decker, who hall from Mrs. Decker to Be Captain i) stirna in the catanite, nave been | BUR NISHINGS _ aplred to thi: vel y by the fact Land Cruise, and Hus- | triste.

The experiences and alliances that made other years great give riper knowle edge and more mature power for the success of the present movement. This year we have many thousands of dollars’ worth of fine Furniture, from factories which would not co-operate with us before—goods of a character never seen previously in an under-price sale, except perhaps a few odd pieces in some dealer’s clean-up. The scope of the August movement has broadened marvellously. This year lines of furniture are better, fuller, completer—quality is higher, prices are lower than ever before. This is partly because we have learned more-—largely because manufacturers have learned more about us, and the benefit of co-operating with us. Factories would be clogged, plans of manufacturers hampered, wood-workers idle and uncereain without the direct help and encouragement of this August Furniture movement. oat Tt pays to ke=p factory foors clear, the outlook bright, employees busy; and manufacturers willing and anxious to pay liberally for the bringing about of these conditions. Y They pay it to you, who need the furniture, which they need to be rid of. We are only the go-between—the carriers from them to you.
