Nails driven into the trunk or marks cut in the bark do not get higher from the ground as the tree grows, although they may appear to if dirt is washed away from the foot of the tree. Once the side limbs of a tree grow out they remain in the same position throughout the life of the tree or until they drop off, says the U.S. Forest Service. Where trees grow close together in solid stands, more rapid height growth results, and lower limbs drop off earlier, making for clearer timber. Women’s Shopping in Colonial Times Colonial Dames Had to Send to London for Silk Hosjery and Other Finery FIRST DRYGOODS STORE It Caused a Sensation at Opening in Philadelphia (Correspondence to The Gazette) Washington D.C.—It took six months to do Fall shopping in the days of George Washington. If you wanted a new beaver hat and six pairs of silk stockings you seat an order to Robert Cary & Company in London, by the ship which left in May, and might plan on receiving it in October, providing all went well on the high seas. First Drygoods Store Until about 1790, the shops had been hodge-podge and the wares meager, but about this time the first brilliant retail fancy drygoods shop in America was opened in Philadelphia, according to the United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission, by a Mr. Whiteside from London, and in true Bond street style. It was at 134 Market street, and the uncommon size of the panes of glass, the fine mull and jaconet curtains, the chinizez and limens suspended in pieces or hanging feastooned, the shopmen behind the counter, bowling and smiling, created for a time a sensation. "Oriental luxury itself would not disdain the linen they wear," wrote an abserver of the times. Clerks Busy as Bees During the period that Philadelphia was the seat of government, the arrival of the Spring and Fall ships from London brought a scene of great excitement and activity. On the pavement from the pretentious example set in the capital by Mr. Whiteside of London. Signs Over the Doors Before this, the shops everywhere in this country had been known by the signs over their doors. In Boston, for instance, every business street was an endless session of golden balls, blue gloves, crowns and scepters, dogs and rainbows, elephants and horseshoes. These also served as advertisements for the business, although at first they bore no relation to it. Within, one found crimson velvets from Genoa, silks from Christian Science Lesson-Sermon.

"Oriental luxury itself would not disdain the linen they wear," wrote an abserver of the times. Clerks Busy as Bees During the period that Philadelphia was the seat of government, the arrival of the Spring and Fall ships from London brought a scene of great excitement and activity. On the pavements all along Front street, from Arch to Walnut, boxes and bales of English drygoods were scattered before the doors of importers. The clerks, apprentices and subordinates of the merchants were as busy as bees in their several vocations, some with sharp knives and claw-hammers, ripping and breaking open the packages and cases, and others within doors exhibiting the goods as salesmen, altogether displaying a pleasant bustle of rivalry and competition. The retailers, principally women, were hovering around, mugging with the men, and viewing with admiration in rich varieties of fashion chinensis muslims, chicest of the most fashionable. Dollars Not in Use All sums of money were computed in pounds, shillings, pence and farthing dollars and cents were amused denominations except in the export of Algeria. Treasury. Newbury. In Colonial times, the invoices orders from the great plantations of the South were of a prodigious length, as the needs were always multifold. In George Washington's own handwriting may be seen in an aging and yellowed manuscript in the Congressional Library a long list of things wanted from England for Mount Vernon, which included such articles as ladies' bonnets and shoes, horse scissors, five pounds of white sugar candy, 25 pounds best jar raisins, perfumed powder, six pounds at a time, medicines and herbs. It took forethought and painting planning to keep supplies on hand. Even then a purchaser might be doomed to disappointment, for the perils of the sea were very real in the 18th century. The waters were alive with pirates and privateers. Merchant vessels, of necessity, went fully armed to defend themselves against these maritime marauders, and the men-of-war of hostile nations. Merchant a Sea Captain A merchant of that time was a sea captain, and his ship was his place of business. Small sealing vessels, many of which were unseamorthy, put into ports on the whim of the vessel's master, without attracting the attention which is given the movements of ships today with cable, wireless and radio. The logs of the old merchant ships of Salem show that they sometimes proceeded without a definite schedule; their direction often being determined capital by Mr. Whiteside of London. Signs Over the Doors Before this, the shops everywhere in this country had been known by the signs over their doors. In Boston, for instance, every business street was an endless extension of golden balls, blue gloves, crowns and scepters, dogs and rainbows, elephants and horseshoes. These also served as advertisements for the businesses, although at first they bore no relation to it. Within one found crimson velvets from Genoa, silks from China, linens from Ireland, rich danasks and cambries from England, bonets, garterings, vest patterns and figured silk cloaks. In New York the first shops were along Dock street, and Queen street. Some of the earliest shop-keepers who dealt in European and India goods were the Beckmans. The shopowners and merchants of Salen, chief of which was the Derby family, took cargoes of fish to Cadiz and Malaga exchanging for oil, fruit, handkerchiefs, molasses, coffee and plums. In fact their fleet of ships sailed the Seven Seas. When Smuggling Began The lesser towns scattered from Portsmouth to New London were thriving and populous. Their proximity to water made them great trading and fishing ports. But before the Revolutionary source one could find in a group of citizens who had not some venture on the sea either regular or irregular. Restrictions laid by mother country on the commerce of her colonies led to smuggling which proved a sure road to wealth. Prominent characters in every town while under British rule, had constantly goods they would have been loath to have the custom officers see. To these harbors came vessels built for speed and laden with contraband ware, gathered in the colonies of France and Spain. Boston was long the center of the smuggling trade. Following the Revolution, smuggling almost ceased. Christian Science Lesson-Sermon "Adam and Fallen Man" is the subject of the Lesson Sermon on Sunday in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The Golden Text, from Paul's epistle to the Ephesians presents the command, "Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light." Among the Bible citations is the statement from Genesis: "And God said. Let us make man in our image after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image. In the image of God created he him, male and female created he them." One of the correlative selections from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures", by Mary Baker Eddy says: "Christian Science separates error from truth, and breathes through the sacred pages the spiritual sense of life, substance, and intelligence. In this Science, we discover Merchant a Sea Captain A merchant of that time was a sea captain, and his ship was his place of business. Small sailing vessels, many of which were unseaworthy, put into ports on the whim of the vessel's master, without attracting the attention which is given the movements of ships today with cable, wireless and radio. The logs of the old merchant ships of Salem show that they sometimes proceeded without a definite schedule, their direction often being determined by the winds and the weather, or the news picked up from passing vessels. The same trend in events which brought a handsome, well regulated shop to Philadelphia guided the course of events in Boston and New York, where shops soon took their pattern. T. R. Peebil, newly hired general manager of the California branch of Grab-BAG Selection man in the image and likeness of God." Science Lecture Radlocast Residents of this vicinity will have an opportunity to hear an authorized Christian Science lecture over KFOX Tuesday, November 19, at 8 p.m., when Arthur P. De Camp, of St. Louis, member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church lectures for First Church of Christ, Scientist, Long Beach. A RAISE IN HARD TIMES People who think things stand still in a depression are wrong, according to Dr. Julius Klein, assistant Secretary of Commerce. In fact, he declares, a depression is just the time when things happen to business with increased speed. "Every business slump we ever had has been the signal for new inventions," he says. "Also for new methods of doing business, even new industries. And the men who were able to see what those new inventions meant in terms of their own jobs, who sensed the significance of those new ideas, were the men who got ahead." The way to get a raise in hard times, advises Dr. Klein, is to keep one's eyes and ears open to every new possibility, by tooing the mark all set to jump—certainly not by standing by, flat-footed, waiting for better times and a faster track. "Hard times are changing the sales map of the nation and world," he concludes. "They are changing the system of marketing, inaugurating new ideas in merchandising, opening up all sorts of magic possibilities." EYES EXAMINED—GLASSES FITTED HOMER A. NELSON, Opt. D.
