Page & Co., Bos ton), "Gabriel and the Hour Book," Is equlsltcly Illustrated by Adelaide Ever hart, whose artistic touch will doubt less double the sale of this book, as It did with tho other. The etory Is laid In the time of Louis XII, of France. "In those day*—It was four hundred years ago—printed books were very few, and Almost unknown to most people, for printing presses hud only been Invented a few years, and so by far the greater number of books In the world wero still made by the patient labor of skillful hands; the work usually being done by the monks, of whom there were very many at that time. These monks, or brothers, hav ing more time and more learning than most other people of those days, made It their chief work to preaervo and multiply all tho books that were worth keeping. These fhey wrote out on parchment and then ornamented the pages with auch beautiful painted border* of flowers and blrdi and saints and angsts, and such lovely Initial lat ter*, all In bright colors and gold, that to this day large numbers of the beau tiful books made by the monks are etui kept among the choicest treas ure# of the libraries of the world. Now of alt the Illuminated books for which tho Abbey of Bt. Martin's had become so famous, none were quite so exqui sitely done na those made by Brother Stephen."

The answer I* en»y—quite easy—Atlanta has, and haa always had, u combination of business men who thought more about the growth of oilr city and the general wel fare of her people than they did of n few dollar* and cents that could be had by extortion. Don’t think so. eh? Well, let’s see. For twenty years wo have been a part of Atlantn. We have not only tried to succeed, but we have accomplished our. efforts. How? Doing Just exactly what our advertisements say we do. and naturally a* follow*, one might ask, how does that help the great masses—It’s Just the some old story of being overstocked and things must be sold at cost, or even less. Well, have at home now will pass remaining season, but a new one will be a necessity next year. This Is Just an example now, mind you. Today we can sell you a first-class guaranteed refrigerator for $15.00 that you could not buy next spring for less than >20.00—a saving of 25 per rent. Isn't that correct? If It works well In small matters It surely works the same way In larger matters. Suppose you had to place an order for 310,000, the pro rata saving would be more than most people get for a year's work. Do you see the point we would make? much overstocked on refrigerate they will be Just ns good but here Is where you get some money today and let us help y We only sell the best brand* and yoi put 25 per cent In your pocket b; buying now for next season.
