her in 1915, still lives in the Polk man

The great success which our
"ONYX' Dyed Hosiery met
with has induced us to make a
further improvement by pro-
'ducing the goods from Ingram
Yarns, thus giving greater
strength and wear to the fabrics
and combining at the same time
the excellent qualities of dye
which have been thoroughly
tested and approved in previous
seasons. We guarantee them
not to stain the feet or garments
and to withstand the effects of
repeated washings as well as
Precipitation, and confidently
recommend them to our Gus
toners as the best article for
purity Of dye and wearing quail
tiles ever offered to the public.

ROSENTHAL ON WICHITA.

Mr.. Joseph Rosenthal, of San Fran
cisco, who was in ST. Louis the other
day. was interviewed by representative
of the Globe-Democrat for his opinions
on real estate as the great representative
of that interest on the Pacific coast and
the following Is what Mr.. r. said:
In the course of my real estate specu-
! lations, which are extensive on the Pa
cific slope, in Texas, Kansas and Ohio,
and l hope will be in Missouri, always
take into consideration the effect of cur
rent events upon the real estate market.
The development of San Francisco can
only be limited by time. 1t will ulti-
mately become the second city in the
country. AS to the relative effects on
her commerce of the Nicaragua and
Panama canals we feel in this way: We
believe that the Nicaragua will be COM
pleted within six years, and doubt if the
Panama canal will be until the interocean
commerce is so large that one canal will
not accommodate it. The Panama canal
will give us a direct Liverpool route,
while Nicaragua will give us a short
route to our own seaboard. We want
one or the other, and favor the one that
will be first completed. The admission
OF Washington territory to the
Union is big thing for the
Pacific slope. We have seen
how much better Oregon has thrived as
state than as territory. Once state,
the government is vested in the hands of
residents, who are identified with Its fu-
ture, and not in control of band of sol
diers of fortune sent out from the east.
| am heavily interested in Kansas not
ably in Wichita. | consider my proper
ty there good investment. True. dur
ing the speculative era, [ made money
enough in Wichita to cover myself if
my property today was worth nothing.
Kansas must have town with a popu-
lation in excess of $4,000, and I believe
that Wichita is to be that one. While in
Texas inquired into the probability of
its citizens ever availing themselves of
their constitutional right to divide into
four states. do not believe that will
be done in the next fifty years. The
Texas idea is to continue great empire
state. and they look forward to the day
when their representation in congress
and in national conventions will be
larger than that of any two
states in the union. Their
magnificent state house will
in itself, prevent division for years, |
am interested also in Findlay. O.. where
there is natural gas, but / must say that
no natural gas town has the opportunity
that st. Louis has TO manufacture fuel
gas in the coal fields of Southern Illinois.
and pipe it to the city. Illuminating gas
will soon be, in comparison to electric
lights, thing of the past. The biggest
real estate booms now in existence are in
Buenos Ayres, in the Argentine con-
federation, and at Melbourne, Australia.
In the latter city, which has population
of 400, 600, such property as is being held
in st. Louis for $4,000 per foot is worth
81. 500. or $500 per foot. St. Louis will
wake up, | believe, to an appreciation of
Its own value before long.
