Karpen & Bros., of Chicago, New York City, and Michigan, city, are the pioneers and leaders in the manufacture of parlor, living room and library upholstered furniture in ma hogany and fibre. They also make an extensive line of porch and sun parlor fibre furniture. Karpen makes the very Best that is made in Upholstered Furniture They also make a medium priced line, but they make it better, very much better. These facts are known to a majority of furniture buyers, is admitted by all dealers, although all dealers do not handle Karpen goods. We sold from our store more than $6,000 worth of Karpen goods in 1920 and our 1921 business has shown an increase. The Karpen peo ple have become interested in the furniture sale of their goods in Wilmington. They made us a proposition to ship us a car of their goods," of their own selection, pay half of the advertising, and reduce the price considerable, provided that we would put on an introductory sale at prices which would only cover the expense of handling. The object is to introduce people who have not heretofore bought and used Kar pen Furniture, to buy a piece and become acquainted with Karpen Quality. The Conditions No customer allowed to make bu4 ONE PURCHASE at these prices. Thereby giving the opportunity to as many housekeepers as possible. One person can buy but one single piece only, if an odd piece; if pairs, one pair; if suits, only one suit. We have overstuffed suits, cane back suits, rockers in pairs, one rocker, one chair, davienette and davenport suits, odd davienettes and davenports in mahogany. Three-piece and five-piece suits, rockers, chairs, pairs of rockers, chaise lounges, day beds in fibre. Terms Strictly cash on the marked prices. Karpen thought all should pay cash in consideration of the low prices. We have arranged to charge to people of good pay at a slight advance in price. Price for below what furniture half as good has ever been offered. Much lower than we shall be able to sell at again. This is an introduc tory sale to place Karpen Furniture in new homes.

Besides the mass meeting, there would be local meetings held in the various depart ments, all at the expense f the time of the government. . The greatest public Inconvenience was caused by the attitude of the pos tal employes, including the telegraph and telephone staffs. Dismissal was threatened thos,g who attended the daily labor meeting, but that threat only partially succeeded in restoring discipline. Telephone service was practically at a standstill. Persons would attempt to get the centrals for hours and would finally give it up in despair. Occasionally, a central op erator would answer, but there .was never a guarantee that the connection wanted would be given. The letter carriers also participated in the "white strike.'', The street let ter boxes became filled too full for an other letter. They were only emptied when it satisfied the whims of .the man assigned for the w.ork. The service was completely disorganized. Vr ' Premier Giolitti gave orders that all adhering to the "white strike" must be punished. Accordingly over 100 were it in-cr ri Jn Rome.. 400 in Milan. 140 in Naples and large numbers elsewhere. GREAT BRITAIN IMPORTING LOTS OF AMERICA COAIi LONDON, Juiy 9. The coal stoppage here has developed into a trial, of strength. The importation . of. Jorelgn coal, chiefly American., continues on a large scale, t -says . the American cham ber of -commercevin London.- The" shortage of coal, the report con tinues has resulted in a rush to con vert coal to oilrburning InstaUatlons. Mills,. railways, breweries and electric power stations are among the latest recruits to this system, ' but in many of the cases the conversion from cnal to oil is only of a temporary nature. Unemployment is still ' increasing. Wage reductions are being, steadily ef fected. The wages of 1.250,000 workr ers were reduced during April; 900,000 of these reductions being due to the operation in the cost jof living scale. Increases in wages were received, by 18.000.
