Hence the rising prices now in vogue. Ten Cents for Toast Two pieces of transparent toast cost in most restaurants ten cents. Cherry pie. with the pits in the cherries, twenty cents. All along the line there is a rising trend in prices for food. Wage-earners. ,eren although their salaries nre aboe the average, have difficulty these days In meeting living conditions. Clothing is high, rents still soar. Necessities of life, and particu larly wearing apparel, have mouuted to heights that place them above the means of the majority.

"Probably it is because that nickel re mains in their mind as a stationary figure. It's easier to raise the price of nn article from twenty cents to n quar ter than from a nickel to a dime. The cost of cream, as everybody knows, lins been raised, but the wholesale cost of coffee hasn't changed. And the public is tise to that fact. We'll not increase the price here."

We flivc always contended that only the loafer, the idle man or womnn, who dawdles along the city streets with nothing heavier above the brows than a hat to continue, only this class could gaze with intense curiosity at such a soul -stirring sight as the up rooting of a car track or the painting of n window or to get to the caRe in question the lifting of a safe to a second-floor window. Despite the tnles of certain humor ists, we are confident that only such a class could crowd the streets for an hour while tlio Vlicels of Industry hummed on every side. Therefore we were very much sur prised today when we reached a crowded section of Chestnut Btrcct to observe a great crowd of men and women intently watching the elevation of a safe, with apparently as much interest as though it. were the 11-31, about to hop for home.

At last we stopped upon the outskirts of the swelling multitude in despair. Then wn noticed a young man, well dressed, hurrying down the Btrcet. look ing neither to the right nor to the left. Evidently the safe performance meant nothing to him. "At last." we thought, "we have found one business man who has no time for sightseeing." What's the Hurry? The energetic one, in seeking to evade the crush, ran Into us heavily. It may be that we swore. "What's the hurry?" we said, "won't your work keep?" "I ain't hurrying," came the answer, "and I ain't had no work for two months." He dashed ou and left us gaping.

Never yet have we been able to present such values to a man's public that is growing greater in discrimination every season. First of all, our stocks were "clean" that is to say, broken sizes and such-like stock excuses were not ours to make. We had excellent and full ranges of all the fabrics and styles that go to make up the consistently good selections that are always yours at this store. But for years we had held a Clearance at this time of the year and didn't feel like backsliding on those who maybe were counting on the Becker Clearance Sale. We cut prices on our regular lines and, in addition, made a purchase of clothing that would make the average vendor of odd lots gasp like the .proverbial fish. Thus our mental attitude on this Clearance! We feel and we know that it is decidedly unusual, and the many hundreds that have come and bought at these prices justify our stand. The Suits at $15.00 and $19.75 are typical young men's' styles and altogether just what you want! Come in t For July and August Week-ends: Plain gray and striped Outing Trousers, "Superior" Brand.

The more rich and delicious a certain food is, the more care people take to avoid eating too much of it for instance, plum pudding or candy. The same rule applies to smoking. Cigar smokers, for example, are today more careful to avoid too many rich, heavy Havanas. (In fact, more and more cigar smokers now smoke cigarettes too, to help cut down the number of cigars.) In the same way, cigarette smokers are learning that Turkish tobacco, delicious as it is, is so over-rich or heavy that a man can easily smoke too much of it. But they are learning also that, instead of cutting down the number of cigarettes per day, they can cut down on the proportion of Turkish in each cigarette. How to reduce on Turkish. THEY candothisbyswitchingfrom straight Turkish to part Turk' ish, or "Turkish blend," cigarettes. The first Turkish blend cigarette ever made and the one which haa always held first-rank importance is Fatima. Fatima contains more Turkish than does any other Turkish blend cigarette. Perhaps this is the main reason why so many smokers of straight Turkish cigarettes keep switching to Fatimas. Less worry about"too many" ANOTHER reason undoubtedly is - the fact that Fatimas treat, Fatima's Record At scores of pUees where one would erpett only fancy, straight Turkhh ciga rettes to eell, Fttma is today tho leader. For example, Fatima tho largest teller at: smokers so kindly. The Turkish Is so perfectly "balanced" by the other tobaccos in the blend that Fatima smokers never have any worry about smoking "too many." A T any rate, whatever the reason ' "- may be, Fatima keeps on attract ing more and more of those smokers who, if they preferred the fancy, expensive, straight Turkish ciga rettes, could easily afford them. This is shown, of course, by Fatima's record in having won tho top notch in sales at so many of the fashionable clubs and hotels and other prominent places all over tho country (see below). How much is "just enough"? DOES not Fatima's record seem to prove that this is the one ciga rette containing just enough Turkish? Not too much nor too little Turkish, but just enough.
