What is the condition of your home today?
Its physical condition. Are you letting it run down
at the heel because the other half of the world is at
war? Are you putting on blue goggles so that
you won't see the worn out dingy furniture, the
rug that needs replacing, the curtains that need
renewa 1? Are you excusing your action by saying
this is not the time to spend money? Well, now,
you are doing just the wrong thing.
Your Home Is Your Life
If it isn't your life, Mr. Man, it is your wife's
life. That's sure. And the children's life. Every
thing they hold dear is centered in your home.
You are in your office a third of the twenty-four
hour day, another third you are asleep. But the
Little Mother and her children are at home all the
time. They see when things run down. They
see the dingy chair. And little by little they run
down themselves.
It is the time to spend money on our homes.
It is the time of all times to make our homes cheer
ful. It is the time not to hoard money, but to put
it in circulation.
Our country is naturally prosperous. Crops are
good. Money is plentiful and to be had at low rate
of interest. What is needed is CONFIDENCE
confidence in ourselves, confidence in each other,
confidence in the country. A little optimistic
cheerfulness, a willingness to help one another, the
putting of some of the hoarded money into motion
that it may start up the stagnant mills and give
people work and wages that's what the United
States needs.
Home
branches of the Store's merchandise and service.
And, as a reward, our business is going ahead.
In Furniture
We liegin Ourselves
This IS the Time to Spend Money
In fact, we have never stopped we have never
let our home the Store run down; have we now?
We have bought freely. We have kept up
stocks, varieties, gone ahead with improvements- -never
for a moment stopping or curtailing our
service. We have kept up to the top notch all
for the August Sale now ready to open we
have prepared as largely as in other years. No
"blues" here. No lack of faith. No lack of mer
chandise. No surrender to conditions. Nothing
but confidence in the people, in ourselves, in ou:
merchandise, in the times.
Put confidence in YOUR homes. Put cheer
fulness there. Put faith there. Put there a new
piece of furniture, a new rug, or some improve
ment to show to your family and to your neighbors
that we are moving quickly into better times.
Don't let your homes get into the condition of
some railroads so run down that they may never
"catch up" again. Once run down anything costs
twice as much as it should to build up. But kept
always in good condition, things are kept efficient,
at the least expense a railroad, a piece of ma
chinery, a store or YOUR HOME.
This Little Talk (Above) is to Advertise
The Wanamaker August Sale of Furniture
A queer advertisement you say.
Practically nothing about the Store or the Sale;
merely a talk on keeping up our homes.
But is it a queer advertisement? We know
that most people will buy in the Wanamaker
August Sale if they make up their minds to buy
furniture at all this summer, so we try to show
them that they should buy NOW.
Our belief that furniture will be bought now
at Wanamaker's if anywhere, is founded on these
facts:
here are the largest stocks
here is the most variety
here are the best values
here are the lowest prices, quality considered
here is the best furniture service
here is the original August Sale of Furni-

ture, the trade movement instituted by the
Wanamaker Store many years ago; and people
like the original, the real, the genuine, and not
a copy.
Tuesday, July 27,
"First Day of Courtesy"
All the furniture will be on view Tuesday,
tagged with August prices and forehanded selec
tions may then be made, transactions to date as
of August.
The Sale includes our entire regular stock of
furniture, together with large special purchases, the
grand total reaching close to a million dollars' worth
in this one store alone.
Furniture at half price- -one purchase alone at
half price amounts to $80,000.
Furniture a third under regular prices.
No reduction less than 10 per cent, (and this
only on staples). Average reduction - from the
already low Wanamaker prices 25 per cent.
Furniture for every room in the House. Fur
niture of all grades super-fine, fine, medium, good
down to the lowest price it is safe to pay.
And all guaranteed with the Wanamaker yuui
anty that insures satisfaction as long as you
with the furniture.
Free Delivery Out of Town
The Wanamaker Free Delivery Service by
freight takes care of most furniture where a reason
able amount is purchased up to and including the
third zone for instance: 300 miles from New York
freight is prepaid on every 100 pounds of furniture
for which the customer has paid $10.

Wasminiitos, July "JD. Attention hero
Is being directed again to tin. condition
of tin. United StateK Treasury. The Gov
ernment's receipts as compared with Its
expenditures have, not Improved slnco
thu beginning of the new fiscal year, July
I, and It Is becoming apparent that
something will have to he done within
il few moutlm to meet the situation
unless matters Improve,
Tlm Treasury started the new llscal
year with u net balance of about jsil,
nnn.UUII. The three weeliK of the new
llscal ear have reduced this to about
ti.i ."'in In other words, tho (Inveru-

excess of expenditures ovi.r receipts
should continue at this ratio it would
taku only about foul teen weeka three
and u half mouths to exhaust the pres
ent balance.
Many here believe that unless an un
expected chango occurs, the Administra
tion will be obliged to net rm tills mat
ter by October 15, Tin. relief might tilke

might call Congress In session to enact

Bishop Charle n. Williams of Michi
gan, preaching In Grace Church yester
day mornlnir, wild strcng things about
church training of the day. He talked
of the "rags and pomp" of church ser
lces, and declared that tho real Christ

In the Episcopal Church, his statements
nttraetod attcntkn even from the sum
mer congregation of strangers.
"The ccclelastlclsm of to-day and
those who administer It are to le com
pared with the scribes and Pharisees,"
said the Bishop. "There Is abroad In
the church a passion for name, a crude
theology and a strong desire to ticket
every man and file him away.
"Ecclesiastical preparation does lt
best, and that best often succeeds In
Its effort, to unlit a man for the ex
periences of life. Afte,r such prepara
tljii most men am ready tu cast out
everything that does not correspond
with their training. The most pathetic
part of It all Is that young men so
reared have never had u glimpse of
tlm real Christ.
"The vast majority of peoplo know a
Christ of dogma, tenets and unprac

Surrosfnte Finds Former Trans-1 Will (.'luirue 12 Year (Quarrel

'Serious Errors.' dren in Seclusion.
Surrogate Cnhalnn has decided that
llieio were "serious errors" in the re-1
puit of former Transfer Tax Appraiser
John V. Coggey In fixing the value of ,
the estate of Peter Doelger. the brewer,
at J". 856,123. and has ordered a new.
appraisal, Mr. Cogger who Is a Tam
many dbtrlct leader, (lied his report on
December 30 last, the last day on which
he held office.
An appeal was taken an once by
William W. Wlngatef of counsel for
State Comptroller Travis, on the ground
that the appraiser's findings that the l
giod will of tile brewery buslneji had
no value was not supported by the facts,
and that his valuation of the realty
holdings owned hy Mr. U.elgor In con
nection with the brewery business was
inadequate.
Mr. Doelger owned lit, parcels of
realty In Manhattan, twenty-four In
Brooklyn, ten In Queens ami two each
In Nassau and Suffilk counties. Tfu
most valuable are his residence at 'JSU
Klverslde Drive, appraised at H50.000,
nnd the brewery slto at 407 to t:i7 Kast
Fifty. fifth street, valued at 149,000,
Tito other parcels were nppralfrd at
KMI00 or less,
The Coggey teport showed that the
average annual protlts of the breweiy
were $325,751, but the appraiser de
cided that the propetty should have
yielded n31,tifi7 at 10 per cent, on the
cnpltnl Inveited, nnd becauso he held
that the protlts were $300,000 less than
they should have been ho refused to
find any value for the good will.
Counsel for the State Comptroller ar-l
gued that conditions am Increasing
luther than decreasing the demand for
beer because many persons who foi
inclly used whiskey are now taking
beer. He also stated that certain ma
chinery lu the brewery which wan ap
praised at only 141,000 Is actually
( WPrtU 1600,000.
.Mrs. Kathleen OnlTioy, who outwitted
her husband and tho Greenwich, Conn.,
police and obtained iKissesslou of her
two children, was clever enough to keep
the little ones under cover yesteiday so
that even her attorney, Huso Wiutnet
piofessed Ignorance of thnir where
abouts. Mrs uiilTrny told Mr Ulntimr
that she would keep the children lu hid
ing for a time at loaft. because she fears
that her husband, lloland D. Onftroy.
vice-president and general manager of
tin I'nlted Five and Ten Cent Stoles,
will try to take them away from her
again If he leains where they are.
After her exciting chase fiom Co.i
Cob, Conn., where she found the chil
dren lu a bonding houe, to Bitiadwny
and 135th sttcet, whern silo left the
automobile, on Saturday nlglil, Mrs

that slnco tho couple's niairlage In
