FURs.-The indications are that
furs will be even more fashionable
this year than last. There are great
many limitations, and inferior goods
on the market, so would advise you
to take care in your selections. We
have used special care in buying our
furs this fall, and think we have been
unusually successful in securing some
fireat bargains. We bought nothing
that we cannot guarantee, and have
many new designs and varieties
which were not in the market last
season. Come and see our display.

him under control. Fortunately just
as Mrs. Bowers succeeded in driving
the horse into fence, Mr.. and Mrs.

scene and rendered timely assistance.
