grown from a little 25x60 feet

only a question of time when
we will be forced to get more

John Wanamaker is a got d busi
ness man. He has made a fortune
selling goods to the people. He was
a successful man before he became a
politician. In iSy 2 he was trying to
get votes lo re-ek cl Ilanison and
keep himsell in the cabinent. Then
he didn't see anything good in low
tariii.
In 1S94 he is selling goods in Phil
adelpliia and is not thinking about
politics. Now he sees a great deal
that is good for his customers in 1jw
tariii'. -
Besides being a good business
man Mr. Wanamaker is the smartest
advertiser in the United States. lie
writes "catchy" advertisements that
people like to read. His last adver
tisement is a good Democratic argu
ment. He announces that he kept
619 cases of foreign goods in bond,
"in view of the tariff changes," and is
ready to offer them at lowest prices.
He adertises F. V. blankets, "on a
free wool basis." He offers "400
pairs handsome all wool couch, bed
or wrapper blankets, precisely like
them, regularly $5 up to a week ago;
our price $2.75 the pair."
Low tarift will be a blessing to
those who buy from Wanamaker.
