Isn't it Odd?

That with all the many minds and the many peo
pie advertising clothing all over the country, there
should be so little variation in what they say?
Why, to listen to most of the advertisements one
meets in the daily papers, you'd think that ''spe
Cial, or mark down. or 'Clearing sales were
in progress in one or the other of the clothing hous
es all the time. or that goods were being given
away by at least one of them, without regard to
the consequences.
But it is real hard to say just what you want to.
That sounds strange, but it is true, nevertheless.
Suppose we have suit that costs US, say twelve
or thirteen dollars. Well we want to get rid of it
we've got too many of that grade, or it doesn't
sell as it ought to, or we need suit at ten dollars
and don't care to make up any more, late in the
season. we'll we mark down that which costs, mind
you, thirteen dollars, to ten, and advertise great
reduction or

Left Ont in the Cold.

Last night Officers Furniss and Foster dis
covered about dozen pairs of cloth low-cut
shoes or slippers hanging In front Of c. W.
Lynch's shoe store on west Main street.
The clerks had evidently forgotten to take
them in, as the store was closed and locked.
The officers took the goods in charge and
left them at police headquarters. where Mr..
Lynch got them today. Had they been
left hanging in front of the store by the
officers Mr.. Lynch would now be few
Illars poorer than he is.

A Central American writer says: The
most beautiful tree | have ever seen is the
mango. 1t is the perfect ideal of a tree,
from 80 to IS feet in height, and spreading
its dark green, feathery foliage over a cir
cumference of $50 feet. Its shade is so
dense that no ray of the iiercest tropical sun
ever strikes the spot over which it stands
guard. Its long, dropping boughs give it
the shap aof d. huge umbrella Ofnever- fading
verdure. One tree will bear from 5000 TO
5000 mangOes at a time. The fruit, which
is heart or kidney-shaped, weighs from half
pound to pound. 1t has a skin like a
Plum and is Il bright golden yellow when
ripe Its flavor is combination of some
thing like our plum, peach. apple and grape,
with decidedly resinOus tinge. When
cooked ii makes delicious Central Ameri-
can apple sauce, unlike anything We have
in the United States"
