We sell hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of second quality goods here every year. We play the game fair.

Every article Is marked "seconds," every advertisement relating to this kind of merchandise states plainly that Ihev are "seconds" In as big type at name of the article itself, and every sign over a table where such goods are sold reads "seconds," like this: "seconds" of men's fine shirts for 1.85 which we'll have Thursday. Several great shoe factories send us their factory damaged shoes, a men's fine specialty clothes tailoring house, two shirt factories do likewise and the first quality shirt that sells for $1 and 4 in many places sells for $1.85 In the Filene Basement because it has a slight defect and so it goes in all lines of merchandise. In many cases it takes an expert to find the "hurts." The damage may ruin a pair of sox you bought the next day after you buy them in one instance, but in hundreds of instances they will give you just as good wear as the first quality sox, and save you a lot of money.

A few weeks since Viachino and Fia- relll had a dispute over the alleged at-i tentlons paid by the latter to Mrs Vla- chino, and as a result the case was aired In the District Court, and Fiarelli fined $25.

He said that efforts were being made to get rid of the speculators, but they continued to work. $1,000,000 Paid Is Said Just how much money was paid out yesterday waa not made public, but it was announced that $1,000,000 was paid out Tuesday, and the line yesterday was Just as big.

It took hours to handle the crowd and at noon scores were in line. On Tuesday men and women stood patiently holding their places, and stifling the pangs of hunger and thirst. Things were different yesterday, however, for Mr Ponzl, after expressing regret for his thoughtlessness the day before, saw to it yesterday that hot frankforts and other sandwiches, as well as cold tonic or hot coffee, was served to all those waiting to get settled up with the Htr ben 1vlrt bv a vrv Parsons anxious to get their money-back did not stop to figure what the amount in interest was that they forfeited in offering unmatured notes, but at Mr Ponzi'3 office it was said that the profits to the company by the redemp- lion at the request of the holders was enormous; in fact, that on Tuesday, when $1,000,000 in unmatured notes were redeemed for the amount of the principal and without interest, the firm made $500,000. The same thinp heldrood yesterday, for of every dollar returned on Hi" unmatured note the obligations of the company to the note-holders were reduced 50 cents and they bought back for $100 a note which at maturity called for the company to pay $150. If the present rate of business continues it Is figured that millions will be saved to the company in interest.

"Run" Figured as Clever Business A man watching the crowd began to do some figuring, and decided that the "run" on Ponzl by thousands of persons money for vhich he had given notes calling for 50 percent interest, should he, as a result of the flurrv and "run," pay off the entire $5,000,000 principal without interest, the notes not having matured, Ponzi relieved himself of a promise to pay $2,500,000 in interest a saving or a profit, call it what you will, of a cool $2,500,000 for Ponzl. notes Into the line and having them cashed by the company at face value, or whether they Intended to hold and later collect principal and Interest Is not known.

He declares for a reduction of taxes by National, State and municipal Governments. "I do not believe In the saloon," he says, "but I do believe that the objec-tons' to the 18th amendment, as urged by the Constitutional Liberty League of Massachusetts, are sound as a matter of public policy." He urges immediate consideration of the danger of a food shortage and "the alarming decline In agricultural production," and demands "a definite policy to stimulate the use of our best asset ouc nearness to the ocean and to the foreign markets." "These and many other matters of importance," he says, "should have the full party consideration, which, under our present primary system, cannot be given." O'Leary Becomes a Candidate Michael A. O'Leary of Cambridge, chairman of the Democratic State Committee, is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor and nomination papers in his behalf are in circulation In various counties of the State. Mr O'Leary's candidacy is due to his failure to secure any other cand'data for jsecond place on the State ticket.

In order to make certain that the ticket shall be complete the chairman of the State Committee ha had his own name written on nomination papers. He will doubtless be glad to withdraw if some other more available candidate enters the field. The candidacy of O'Leary makes the Democratic State ticket as follows: For Governor, William F. Fitzgerald of Brookline, Richard H. Long of Framingham or John J.

Walsh of Boston; for Lieutenant Governor, Michael A. O'Leary of Cambridge; for Secretary of State. Charles H. McGlue of Lynn; for Treasurer, Patrick O'Hearn of Dorchester; for Auditor, Mrs Alice E. Cram of Jamaica Plain; for Attorney General, Michael J.

Sullivan of Salem. kind Cuticura Talcum EXPECTS TO REOPEN IN TWO WEEKS AT MANCHESTER, MANCHESTER, July 28 Joseph Bruno, local agent for the Securities Exchange Company, said today that he had received word from Boston that the audit of the books of the company there was going along satisfactorily and that he expected that within two weeks or a month again to open the local office for investors. The office here continued today to pay out the principal and 50 percent interest due on notes of July 26 and 27. which have matured since the audit of the books commenced. Mr Bruno warned speculators buying up notes that have not as yet matured that the checks for these notes would be made payable only to the persons who invested the money and that the exchange of the notes if made outside of the Securities Exchange office would have to be in strict legal form.

While the of investors in the Securities Exchange in this city appear to be confident of the ultimate payment of the 50 percent on their investment within the 4o days promised, there were, a few who withdrew rather than take a chance on awaiting the outcome of the investigation in Boston. The majority of those who withdrew their money had small amounts ranging from $50 to $500. Just before the noon hour eight or 10 Investors were in the office and received checks in return for the notes. It was stated several of those who withdrw their money Tuesday were in today to have their notes renewed. This was not done, however.

You would prove conclusively that it was the best lubricant for your car. TTOW often you are told to be careful in launder-ing the mcnfolks' silk shirts. You must not discolor them; you must not let them fade and they must not be injured so that the silk is weakened.

Sounds like a big task but not at all. Just use Ivory Soap Flakes and the cleansing of silk shirts becomes really easy, without any worry at all, because you know they will not be harmed in any way by good old Ivory Soap. The thin, snowlike flakes of Ivory Soap melt to a delicate, cleansing, foamy suds the instant they touch hot water. Cool the suds till lukewarm, and wash the silk just by swishing and swirling it in the soapy foam. You don't have to rub, so there's no chance for injury.

Wash all silks this new way next time. The men will be delighted, too. Get Ivory Soap Flakes at your dealer's. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO GO OVER PONZI'S ACCOUNTS The announcement was made yesterday by United States Dist Atty Daniel J. Gallagher that a audit of the books and accounts of Charles Ponzi of the Securities Exchange Company will be made in the course of a couple of days.

When asked whether the Government audit will be made independently of the one promised by Dist Atty Pelletier of Suffolk County, Mr Gallagher declined to answer. "Investigation may show," said Mr Gallagher, "that Ponzi is at least theoretically solvent and yet an offender against Federal laws. He may be able to do all he says he is doing and yet violate the law." "As I told Ponzi the other day," he continued, "he is either a benefactor deserving of the blessings of public pfficials and all alike, or he should be in jail Ponzi agreed to that. It goes without saying that if Ponzi is solvent and has violated no Federal statutes the Government will give him a clean bill It also goes without saying that if he' has violated the law, Federal action will be taken." It Is expected that the Postoffice inspectors who have been investigating the case will be present during la, audit, and in case it is found that Ponzi has not violated the postal iaws or is not guilty of fraud against the Government, the Postoffice Department will not take action.
