In the Bahama Is land party were Mrs. Wood, Mr. and Mrs. Mark Clarke, of Chicag-o, their daughter, Miss Alice Keep Clarke, and myself. It was like a dream and what most impressed me was the wonderful strength and regularity of the teeth of the people of the Is lands. The oldest, warped and bent body, would lift a face wrinkled and old, and behold, a smile \y° uld reveal the most perfect teeth! The voices of the children are soft and musical, and I learned that the children are given each week, lessons in laughing with violin accompaniment. which may account for the melodious sound of their voices. “Oue thing I noticed especially was the absolute reverence the English man has for his flag.

We exercise unusually careful attention in the selection of our stock, in addition to buying in quantites. and get them much below what they would cost us were we to buy in smaller lots. In addition to these reasons -there are many minor ones to bear out our contention that no better values are to be had than here. For those who do not wish to go into ready cash, or dis turb other investments, we are glad to extend our partial pay ment plan, whereby a small amount cash can be paid at the time of purchase, and the remainder extended over a number of months best suited to the purchaser.
