A LETTER FROM FRANCE AND A

Somewhere la Fraae*.
Tho letter* we all wrote on the

had made a few remarks the censors
thought wo shouldn't. Since the*
I've been 10 busy, I've had little time,
so many interruption.
We err ponding all ear spar* time

sums fife in old U. S. A.
Por instance I'm In n nice sunny

We have all made a large bag with

We sent our linen to be washed

when I reached New York after

They formed a unit to be ready for

preat many things for thorn. For in
stance the Baltimore Bod Cross, made
op a purse and gave to tho Superin
tendent to use for the comfort of the
nurses, (the little things we have to
boy over here).
She and they are broad minded wo
men, perfectly willing to share with
oar extra crowd, but just tho same
that puna was given by the City of
Baltimore and the friends of their
Hospital My crowd represents nine
teen different hospitals, and we feel
that our friends will be glad to do
mnseUilng for us too, whan they know
the situation.
Ask Clinton Bod Cross to ask that
our surgical supplies be seat to Bast
Hospital 18, and ws will get them
nil right
We only have batter new and the-,
and no white breed at all, so please
ask my friends to make some old

OBODY ever went wrong through making a pur
• ' chase at this store; always our values have stood out
as prominent mile posts on the road of economy. This
year our old and new patrons will find that the protection
of their interests has been our main aim, justs it has been
since we began business—this year we are offering the
same service, giving the same attention to personal wants,
exercising the same care for the satisfying ol each custo
mer that has been one of our chief character! .tics always.
We can’t, however, offer you the same prices. Grim
necessity of war has forced prices to a new liigh level in
the wholesale markets. At present it is hard to buy some
goods at any price. Merchants who were net far-sighted
enough to foresee in some degree present conditions, will
not be able to satisfy customers this fall. Fortunately we
were among those who placed our orders in time. Conse
quently we have a full stock, bought at prices a good deal
lower than the same goods now command.
As in former year* our customer* will *hare in our
Kod fortune. Throughout our clothing, dry goods, mil
ery, shoe and furnishing department* we h:ive a variety
of standard good* that you must have. The prices are go
ing to be kept as low as we can keep them. V'hen they are
gone, there is no telling what the next lot will cost All
of these goods were selected with an eye to p'easing you.
They are good selections, and we want you to look them
over. j1
