PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY. .It Thema Seem to Have Learned Anything BOW* From Nature. "For the stability and righteousness Of our government we are accustomed 'to think we must pin our; faith on the eonntry people who live 'near to na- ture's heart,' " writes Mrs Lyman Ab- bott in The Ladies' Home Journal, the fllrst. of. a series of "Peaceful Valley" paper which picture lf' in an ideal rural community. "But how many of them." abe says, "seem to have learned "Mything noble from her? 'Her beauty roes not refine them, her honesty does tot snotse them to thoroughness, her *ea handedness does not inspire them to lty they become narrow and skid in the midst of grandeur and lib- erality- They imagine there can be nothing in life but work er play, toil or rest, and they feel a contempt for those who play and rest, They have item learned to mingle work and: play, tail and rest in due proportion, and they veal* to find any pleasure in life unless they abandon work altogether. Like the tired -woman who wrote her own epi- taph, they fancy heaven a place where they c 'do nothing forever and ever.' "This view of life makes loafers in the village as it snakes them in the cities. When a different spirit has found roonc to grow, a new order of living prevails. Life becomes something more than a slow grinding of the mill, more than a burden, to be endured only be- cause it mot be at Rill laid down. It beconma a luxury aswell as a necessi- ty- individuals combine, not for their own advantage, but to multiply bene- factions, and as strength increases by its right use, the attainment of one worthy and ambitious advantage is only the suggestion and achievement of an- other." ." 1" LACK ORIGINALITY. ` ~ Why Keay Criminals, Are Bully Brought re Justice. "One reason why detectives appear to do something miraculous occasional- lT is that there is after all very little originality, in criminals," said one of Chief Haaen's sleuthhounds recently. "Phan a man sets out to get money brerooked means, he seldom sits down and evolves a new plan On the con- trary, he evidently thinks of the smart case he has heard of at different times, rules up his mind which Baits him best and copies the plan adopted very closely indeed.. "Henoe, .when the detective sets out, he has, in many instances, quite a string of precedents to take as guides to the course the arisninal will probably 'One case, years age, that helped me immensely in the business, was a forg- ery.

"I obtained' access to his room and found that he had developed a partial- ity for cutting scraps from newpaper& There was a whole drawerful of these, and I went through them carefully. "Several had relation to forgery cases, and one cutting that appeared to be pretty badly fingered described how a forger had got away in woman's at- tire. "I worked on the theory that my bird had flown in this manner and fol- lowed it up until I finally got on the track and captured the tcriminal. "Thp capture was regarded as a very rsmarkabls one, but, a matter of fact, the runaway had left for me an exceedingly valuable clew. If he had taken the precaution to bum that cut, ting, he might have escaped capture al- together. "—Cincinnati l-together.'"—Cincinnati Enquirer. "Bow" Vsed For "That." DrHolmes wrote half a century ago: "Don't, let zne beg of you—don't say 'how' for 'what," ' ' and "Please don't say 'how' for 'that' " is the wail of the sensitive reader of today. If an Ameri- can, he is likely- to ascribe` the reigning fancy for the sin to Mr. Howells, who has taken to it with his usual ferocity, possibly because long practice on his own signature makes the adverb easier for him to -write than the conjunction: Lately the word has begun to infest the writings of English politicians, pos- sibly as a result of association with the Irish members of parliament, for "be said how he was going" is a literal translation of the Gaelic equivalent of "he said that he was going."

In Abyssinia they have a very pictur- esque fashion of identifying thieves There is an official nominated for the purpose in each district. Upon receiv- ing information of a robbery he gives his confidential servant a dose of certain herbs, afterward a pipe of tobacco. Th. man drinks and then smokes. In dile course he begins to rave and to Brawl about on hands and knees. Then the thief catcher puts: a rope about his loins, and on all fours he perambulates Ms neighborhood, sniffing like a hound, enters a house at last and goes to sleep upon the floor. That is legal evidence of the owner's guilt Ile has to pay the value of the stolen goods or to "square" the thief catcher, which, as a rule, comes to much the same thing. The Small 'Unwashed.

By this we mean the cause of its ex - existence, or the needs of people in proper clothing that would support so 'varied and unique a stock, in the first plat, ,our business is the supplying of any ind of wearing apparel for men an boys. The comprehensive - 1 Hess of ur stock is seen in the fact that we how and sell any article .'of clothing that is worby men or boys. F ' Thq .paces us in • the positiou of strictly el.c thing people. We have made and intend to make the clothing busi- ness our study, thus 'to keep in: touch with every phase of the business that may tend and help to the rendering better service to our customers. With our steadily increasing busi- ness, we -have kept this point ever iu view, that to gain and retain the con- fidence of a purchasing public, you must be possessed of a knowledge con- cerning your goods,superior to the know- ledge of that possessed by the purchas- er of these goods: So it has fol owed that in devoting our work entilcly to _this business, we have cone to reason that we are the better able to serve your interests in clothing, because we know the business, also it is our only business: We have given you the -reasons for our existence as straight clothiers, viz : 1 The demand for a store where any article of masculine attiro might be bought. We will now acquaint you with a few lines of seasonable goods embraced in stock. On entering to our store you are struck at this season with the heavy stock of men's .and boys' Over- coats and Suits ; in our last issue - we spoke at great length about our Ovt r- l coat stock—three - principal styles f1 which were then illustrated. We will 1 turn our attention this week more to i the Suits. However,before leaving the Overcoats, we wish to quote prices. A very large range of Black Frieze and Serge Overcoats, at $4.50 and 5.00. The better grades sell itt $6,50, 7,50, 8.00, 9.00, 10.00 and 12.00. You are assured of a good cost in dealing with • us. Boys' Overcoats and Pea Jackets, in large range of prices and qualities; a very good Pea Jacket -at $3. The buying of good clothing for boys' is necessary. It does • not pay to buy fine material, buyj something with body or substance in it. T "yrs FIG. 1. Out No. 1 is made in all qualities— tweed, ,serge, worsted, ranging in price from $2, 2,50, 3.50 to 4,50. FIG. 2. Cut No. 2, also a very neat suit for a boy, may be purchased at similar prices No. 1. to r JL r" -e. j !-z r r • � � •S 3z-412 Fro. 3. Cut No. 3 is a very good reproduc- tion of the double breasted suits for boys, purchaseable as low as $$2. i0, ranging for all wool goods tjp to 1.50. FIG. 4. Out No. 4 is similar in many re- spects, to No. 1, -save it has no belt. This line is also priced at the same' as the others. Two articles of boys' c'othing— reefl"er jackets and odd pants—are shown in cut No. 5. 2 FIG. 5. Ae you are aware, we nlalce all our own boys' pants ; the prices are 500, 65c, 75c and $1 for some very large siz s. Pea,`Jackets are growing in favor. We are showing very stylish coats at $3 and 3.90.. Every style and shape has its place, and attention is given thereto. - Figures 6, 7, 8 aid 9 repress nt the Settee IMENCMAIMMI ALS business, the social, the clerical and the corpulent phases of society. These men have to be clothed and we endeav- or to do our share. FIG. 6. Our made to order suits we never let out of the store until we aro satisfied that the customer is equally satisfied. In ready -made suits our aiin is not ro much to sell low priced stuff as it is to give good value and satisfaction for your money. It often happens that s man wants a roughing suit, at $4.75, ov 6.00, which saves a tetter suit. These qualities we have in stock and the lines we show are durable anjd good fitting. The price at which we sell most of our Readynaade Suits are $8, 10.00 and 12.00. A man giving these prices is assured of satisfaction. In our last special announcement we did not give. the attention to our furnishing stock that it deserves, so that in this issue we wish to be a little more explicit in describing many lines. At this season Underclothing is a paramount necessity, - and in Under- clothing we -wish to particularize. How is it with you I Can you bear to wear the all wool, or does it irritate too much. For - those who are so afflicted the Artie or Fleeced Lined Underwear ccmes as a bles-sind, it never bothers, is as warm or warmer than the all wool. Theprice for the Cotton . Fieeeing is $1 ,a suit ; for the Wool Fleecing $2 and 2.50 • a suit. From actual experience we are forced to believe that there is no Underwear ila' the market as comfortable, and for that matter as durable at the several prices. Of course you have been pestered Iand bothered by over anxious sa!E s - people. Who has escaped it? Aid while we are as anxious as any people to sell, we draw the line at playing a man when he enters -our store ; if you want anything in our Iine we are de- lighted to show and sell it to you. In presenting the special all Woll Underclothing, at $1 a suit, it is to set forth its value at all times in our ads and by word of mouth, for we think it is the cleanest Underwear we have ever shown at the pril e.
