An early-closing movement has been inaugurated among the retail houses in Chicago, and a petition is being circulated to close at 1 o’clock Saturdays and at 5.30 other days during July and August. As it is headed by Spalding & Co., Hyman, Berg & Co., and C. D. Peacock, it is apt to be pretty generally signed.

In C. D. Peacock's window there is a display of briar root pipes embellished with inlaid silver filagree work, done by peasants of Bosna, a division of the Austrian Empire. The pipes bring high prices and are much sought after by those who have the leisure and income to indulge in such luxuries. As examples of artistic workmanship, they have no equal in domestic made goods.
