Clothing Dept.

In this department we usually
have something to say about
Thin Clothing at this season of
the year. But this season Seer
suckers, Alpacas, ETC., would
not interest you. Nevertheless,
we always have something that
is interesting, no matter whdt
the season may be, and regard
less of what the weather clerk
may send US.
To-day we will call your at
tention to cufaway Suits. We
have them in light coiors--we
have them in dark coiors--we
have them in stIpes--we have
them in cheeks we have them
in silk mixfures-- have them
in every fabric in which this
style is made up--cheWots, Cas-
simeres, Serges and Worsteds.
At Sf4 we can furnish you
with a neat appearing, perfect
fitting Business Suit, which Or
dinaH!y would cost you SIS or
500.
And if you wonfa Dress Suit
we can show you some of the
finest garments in this style ever
presented for your inspection.
In Sack SUITS, if you prefer that
style, we can show you the same
Varied assortment, commencing
with our strictly All Wool Suits at
S6. Even those are NOT made from
cheap, sieasy material, which looks
we'll while you are trying it on, and
meyer pieases you after you get it.
But careful attention has been paid
to the selection of these Suits,
especially in regard to securing
strong and serWcenbie garments,
which insure the purchaser double
the amount of wear usually expected
in Suits at this price.
The sume may be said of the So
Smts--usuaiy they would cost you
more, but the continued cold weather
has left even some of the most con-
sentative manufacturers with large
stocks on their hands at the close
of the season, when they are only
too glad to part with their products
for cash at prices mlch less than
cost.
Our Sf2 and $40 counters are
also worthy of your inspection.

SOME DAY.

Some dag shall b. lying cold and still,
MY quiet hands be folded on my breast
No more TO do the bidding OF my WILL
No more the conscious morn disturb my rest.
Some day my work will all be laid aside.
Ended though ali unfinished, II will seem to
How many times fail. how hard tried
That my life's work might more than stubble
be
Some day my noisy boys will gently tread.
No ringing shout OF Mothers reach my ear:
Lord. save them from. the dangers that dread.
When Thou hast taken me past all my fear.
Some day my weary feet will cease to climb
The uphill path that was so rough TO me;
Though wel-nigh slipping, yet how sweet the
time.
LEANED my weakness by the way on Thee!
Some day the one beloved, whose gentle touch
Would send the thrilling currents to my
heart
caress and vain regrets Will lavish overmuch
And tears that with mine might have flowed
VIII start;
Dear eyes, grown careless to express their
love-
I've searched so OF; in vain-bring now their
store,
Nor glance responsive nor sealed eyelids move:
What would have been so precious, shall
need no more.
To-day great burdens lie upon my heart:
One who had so-rows left this message sweet:
Bear We another's burdens but the heavy
part
Himself doth carry. yet my hayward feet
Hath faltered, and sorely need, to-day.
Some words OF comfort from pilgrim friend,
Fulfilling His sweet will as by the way
We walk together; may be near the end.
Dear friends. to-day is ours; another dawn
may shine
Clordless and fair, with no declining sun,
No need OF any ministry nor aid Of thine
In that blest day. The work of life is done.

A famous professor of hygiene. in a
lecture before his class in one of our

an account of q novel society formed
at his table. 1t was called the "Chew-
Your-Food Society" Its object was
to secure the proper mastication of
food before its admission to the stom-
ach. Penalties were affixed for neglect
to do this. and the funds SO accruing
were bestowed upon the deserving
poo=. The inspiring cause in the for
nation of the society was dyspepsia

alluded to. this malady being caused
in his case, not by improper food. but
by improperly eating or not eating his

The rule laid down by the society to
govern its members was that of no
less man than William E Gladstone.
