BargainQiving: in Black Dress Goods It is but seldom that bargain giving on such broad-gauged princi ples as we offer today comes to the women of Scranton in the way of Black and Colored Silks and Black Dress Goods. There's a reason for this. Such goods are not of the general bargain counter order at the Globe Warehouse. In fact, we carry nothing in stock in these depart ments but the best staple weaves and seasonable novelties expressly de signed for middle and high-class buyers. Consequently, no matter how low the price may be, the materials, shadings and styles are the veiy best the market of today has to offer, while the wealth of choice afforded in our limitless stocks such a special sale as the present a bargain oppor tunity of such surpassing excellence that shrewd buyers of limited means who feel it their duty to be in keeping with the times in the matter of dress, cannot afford to miss it.

THE QUIET HOUSE. Oh. mothers, worn nnd weary With cares that never cease, With never time for pleasure, With days that have no peace; With little hands to hinder, And feeble steps to guard, With tasks that Ho unfinished. Deem not your lot too hard. I know a house where playthings Are hidden out of bicht: No sound of childish footsteps la heard from morn till night: No tiny hands to Utter, That pulls things all awry; No baby hurts to pity As tho quiet days go by. And she, the sad-eyed mother What would she give today To fed your cares nnd burdens. To walk your weary way? Ah I hnppy she. yea blessed, Could she again but 60e The rnmns all strewn with playthlngj. And the children round her kner! -Mrs. M. E. Juhu. In Montreal Wltnrsi. CASTOR!
