Please remember that this is accounted for mainly by the fact that we HAD ALREADY REDUCED our entire stock at least 10 per cent, from the 1920 prices; and the price from which you take off the 33 1-3 per cent' is the new lower 1921 price. But we have learned that in some instances the prices on the good old 1920 price-tickets to which some stores cling so fondly are about 20 PER CENT, higher than the prices on our regular tickets.

Feb. 8 In two re cent London divorce cases In which, for the first time, women have serv ed on Juries, documentary evidence; a offered of such an important nature that the pi esidinp justice decreed that it might be seen and passed upon by men, but not by the women who were finally to help de cide an the merits of the issue. Indecent 5 letters and obscene pic tures were introduced into testimony and passed about to the male jurors who. in turn, gave the women Jurors more or less expurgated versions of the objectionable exhibits. George Bernard Shaw takes the position that this method is all wrong.

In the Daily News of Lon don he says: Th conclusion arrived at seems to have been that, as all men are familiar with abominable and beast ly letters and obscene picture cards, they should examine those doc uments and tell Innocent women what they thought ot them. I am a married man. In my sixty-fifth year, and I 'solemnly protest -that-1 am entirely fmiltless of this alleged male habit of reading abominable ami bcatily letters, and gloating over pornographic letters."

Shaw, who also asks why Sir Edward Marshall Hall, counsel for the -plaintiff in one of the cases, did not apologize to the six men on the as well as to the women Jurors for being forced to use such exhibits in presenting his cv'dence. But should a woman jurror wish to be shielded from' objectionable testimony? Representative New York women answer a unanmloua "no." Miss Helen P.

At that age they will be- in the full bloom1 of youth, and in physical condition to live for ever.

Thia startling assertion and prophecy was made yesterday by Royal F. Spats, of Philadelphia, before a large audience in the Jr. O. U. A- HEalL 107 Tatnall street The meeting was held under the auspice of the International Bible Student Association.

Feinting out the fact that in every line of human endeavor in the past forty years, great advances in information have been made, Mr. Spats said tha world should have a better understanding of the Bible. His lecture yesterday was td enlighten his audience in that word. When will dead men live again?" was one of the questions Mr. Spatz endeavored to solve.

The speaker quoted from the Gospel that the dead will live again at the end of the Gospel age and that evidence at present is clear and conclusive that we have reached that period. He pointed to the World War, when nearly all the nations of the earth were engaged, as a fulfillment of the Lord's prophecy concerning the time of the end. Mr. Spats the fact that 4 the world has known famine in many countries since 1914 as another proof that the end of the Gospel age Is at hand. 1928 la the year when the great transition will take place, according to prophecies and tables quoted by Mr.

Spatz. Any one living Jn that year may go on existing indefinitely, if these prophecies, are true. Explaining this, Mr. Spatz told of the Lord having taken Abra ham on the mountain top, and said: "Look to the north, south, east and west, all the land thou seest for sji everlasting possession. Abraham asked when he would get all this, and he was told, according to Mr.

Spatz, "Take me an heifer three years old and a she goat three years old and a ram three years old. and a turtle dove, and a young pigeon and offer them as sacrifice." tinder the Jewish law, av turtle dove or a young pigeon must be one year old to be fit to sacrifice. This promise was made Abraham In the year 2015 B. C. The promise will be fulfilled la 1925, according to Mr.

Spatz, and is worked out 'through the following table. The aggregate age of the ani mals and birds offered for a sacrifice by Abraham, Is 11 years. The Jewish year Is 360 days. Multiply ing the number of days In the year by tha age of the sacrifice gives 3960 as tha time for the fulfillment. The key to tha problem, Mr.

Spats said, is in Ezeklel, 4:6, "I will give you a year for a day," or 3960 years' from the time the promise was made up to tha time Abraham will come into possession of the land. Subtracting the year in which the promise was made, from the length of time to its realization, or, taking 2035 from 3960 years, gives 1925, or the year in which the promise will be consummated. After that time, according to Job, 33:21 to 25, old men will grow young again." Man's flesh will assume the freshness of childhood, and he shall return to our youth, as he grows oraer. Mr. Spatz declared this and many other prophecies show that when people who are now living have reached the age of a thousand they will still be In the full bloom fit youth, and in condition to, live for ever.
