Modern retail merchandising is found
ed on the rock of a fixed price for all.
But even this fixed price fluctuates
with the rises and falls of the market.
It is in the latter respect that adver
tised articles of well known brands stand
superior to the average product.
Even with the upset market of war
times few advertised articles have increas
ed prices to consumer.
They have continued to sell at their
fixed and fair prices.
The manufacturers have in many in
stances preferred to sacrifice profit rather
than public esteem.
When you see a national article ad
vertised in this newspaper remember the
name as that of an article that merits con

Oh! yes, I forgot, and that nurse is
going, too.
"The trunks were being packed
when that nurse said: ‘I suppose yve j
will have to take Drusilla along or
there will be no peace for anyone.’
“So she came here and took me and
all n y clothes and Jammed me into
the trunk among some shoes and a
heel of the one was right on my nose, j
“It was just terrible, Bobby Jones,
not knowing what was to happen or I
how long I was to stay there, and then
a lot of things were put on tori of me
and I thought my end had come.
“After a long time T heard a noise
and some ore was taking off nte, and
then I heard my little mother's voice
and heard her say: ‘You take my
Drusilla right out this minute; she will
smother in there with all those clothes
on top of her.’
"Pretty soon I was uncovered and
that nurse took me out. ‘Here is your
darling-Drusilla!’ 1 heard her say to
my little mother. ‘You better put a !
veil over her face; the salt water-might
spoil her beautiful complexion.’
“ T will.’ replied my little mother,
’T will ask mother this minute for a
veil for her, and she must have a j
linen coat like mine, too.’
"My little mother's mother said I
should have a veil and a coat if there
was time to make one, and now t am
going to ride in the train with all the
family and see all that is going on in \
spite of that nurse."
"But you can’t see much through \
that veil,” said Bobby.
"I air not fretting about that,” re
plied Drusilla, “my little mother will
have to kiss me: she always does when
she carries me, and I ant sure she w'ill
get tired pulling up my veil and leave
if off my face before we get very far. !
“Anyway, Bobby Jones, I am sure I
will see enough through this veil while
1 am gone to tell you about this win
ter, for I expect to see some interest
ing things at the seashore.”
"I wish T was going, too," said Bob
by, looking very sorrowful.
