Which store do you believe? The store that gives no unusual reason for its ability to sell at lowest prices, or Macy's that tells you definitely that its unique policy of sellinp; for cash only-no "credit" and no "discounts' makes possible its unique low prices? Macy's sells for cash only. Why this makes possible lowest-in-the-clty prices is not evident perhaps without a minute's any simple transaction as carried out by Macy's and by Blank's (any other. New. iYork store). You will see jwhy shrewd shoppers buy at Macy's.

Macy's buys a hundred articles and marks each one at a profit of one dollar. Macy's is then certain of getting $100.00 profit on that transaction. The money will be in the house before the merchandise goes out. Blank's buys a hundred articles and marks them to sell at a profit of 4 .00 each. Blank's cannot figure on realizing $100.00 profit.

Blank's knows that, say five of the articles will be sold to a member of one of the favored classes that gets 10 discount. At least 25 of the articles will be sold on credit. Probably four or five of the 25 customers' that buy on credit will not pay for six months or a year, and Blank's loses the interest on its money in the meanwhile. In all probability, at least one of the credit accounts is really bad, that is, the customer really does not intend to pay. The net result is that Blank's is lucky to realize $90.00 profit on the 100 articles.

What does this mean? If $1.00 average profit on such articles is the mhbium which a store can ret, and still live, it is evident that Blank's only course to mark each one of the articles sufficiently above $1.00 so that they will realize rrofit on the hundred articles. ft Blank's therefore marks each article at a $1.10 profit Macy's marks the art'cles at $1.00 profit. Macy's gets no less profit out of the whole transaction than Iank's does, but Macy's is selling at 10 to 12 tess than Blank's prices. This on a scale one thousand times larger is what is happening every day in New York. This is the real reason why the thrifty shopper buys every-f.

thing at Macy's. find at Macy's every desirable quality of merchandise, every store convenience, and you have the additional advantage of saving from 10 to The Basking Ridge Improvement Society has appointed Frederick Sutro and P.

Three days of rest and recreation brought a glow of color to the face of President Wilson, and he looked refreshed and healthy as he faced half a hundred Washington correspondents.

"Mainly the Indecision of the president," said Mr. Wilson with a hearty laugh, in which his hearers Joined. In response to other questions the president said he had practically decided upon the personnel of the new Industrial commission and might send the names to the senate this week. He said he had nearly made up a list of diplomatic appointments, but would not make them public until It was actually completed.
