Prizes ?
If you are, then come with us
and let us see what there is in
this vast store.
The very first thing we see is
a lot of pure white Pearl but
tons, ioc a dozen. There may
be a pearl button for less, but
not this quality.
Next we pick up a new ma
chine thread in black, made
from Sea Island combed cot
ton-Ioc for spool of 500
yards. 1t takes the place Of
black silk in many places.
Here are little boxes of bone
buttons, each box containing
three dozen "our own idea,
and the price for the box Ioc.
What are these ? Another
little box with bright brass but
tons with prongs to them. All,
yes We see they are for poor
old bachelors who can not sew
on their own buttons. All they
have to do now is to punch a
hole, bend down the DrOnOs
and the suspender button is
safe-7c a dozen.
On this other counter are
cunning worsted socks for the
wee babies, in pink, red, blue
and white. Two little balls
dangle at the ends of crochet
ribbon.
Long ones to go over little
shoes and ankles way up to
baby's knees, soc, handmade.
What's left of q" Fascinators"
hanging up here before you
now down to 55c-in blue,
garnet, brown and cardinal.
Infants Jackets of softest
worsteds, awfully nice ones for
81, but less than half that gets
a good one if you want it.
Lots of other little worsted
things that mothers like to add
to baby's comfort,
Only a few shoulder capes
left. but those few are nice as
ever, and at price that is
about as you want.
AT the gentlemen's depart
ment we find bang-up stock
ing, seamless, IL I-2c, and a
good big handful they are too
nothing slimsy about them.
Give you a good white shirt
for 58c.
Good flannel shirts for dol
lar that are worth buying.
Fast black hose for the men
that mean what we call them
they are the same grade as the
ladies'-three pairs for SI.oo.

too. Lots of EN- to choose
from, CSC each.
Dogskin gloves for a dollar
that you are in the habit Of
paying half as much more for.
Linen collars of all kinds, but
ones that are good for some
thing. We give you two for
25c.
Fifty-nine cents is the price
now for heavy undershirl that
ought to be 75c, and would
only for the extremely favorable
winter. Better no sales Tor
shirts than a hard winter, so we
let them go at SOC gladly; 7oc
gets a dollar one.
Leave the gentlemen and
lets go over again to the ladies'.

CHINESE ASTROLOGERS.
Remarkable Sagacity of tho F1owery King
dom's Imperial Family.

Remarkable Sagacity Of tho F1owery King
dom's Imperial Family.
The household of the Emperor of
China includes thirty umb ella-bearer5
and seventy-ive astrologers. The as
trologers, who correspond to the signal
service bureau of this country, pre-
dict every day the weather for the
morrow. If they predict rain the um-
brella-bearers take a day off. If they
announce fair weather. on the other
hand, the umbrella-bearers, mandarins
of the overshoe and macintosh men
report at the palace at $3.50 a. M.
The Emperor of China may be a
heathen Chinee, but he knows enough
to copper his astrologers and meteor
ologers. AS an instance of the sagaci-
ty of the Chinese Imperial family in
this regard we may mention the sig
nal refutation of judicial astrology
made by Hung-Beef-Tung, grand
uncle Of the present Emperor. Chow
Chow, president of the Imperial Col
lege OF Astrologers, came to Prince
lungs palace one morning and said:
''Scion of seventy thousand genera

thou and I were transformed into

OF equal length, and with equal flight

ty. what of it, young fellerP"
This, my puissant and graceful
lord, that thy life and mine shall be

Colonel Hung, is infalIible."
You are liar!' cried the Prince.
and slit the astrologer's weasand. And
it seems that Chow was a liar. For
Old Hung survived him twenty-eight
years and would be alive now if he
had let opium alone. Since Chow's
death the Chinese astrologers have,
by Imperial order. confined their pre-
dictions to the weather. If they make
a correct prediction they are executed,
but thus far none have incurred tho
penalty. The American signal-serv-
Ice bureau has still something to learn
from Chinese methods.-N. Y. Sun.

The Latest and Largest Steam En-
CINE.

The largest steam engine in the
world is that constructed for the
new Italians cruiser Sardegna. 1t
really consists of four triple ex-
pansion engines, which can be used
together or separately, as desired,
the entire combination being
capable of developing a force of
%, 900 nominal, or 2 5000 actual
horsepower. The ship is driven
by twin screws, and two engines
are connected to the shaft of
each screw, but one screw can
be stopped altogether If the
vessel is to be turned around,
or for ordinary sailing one engine
only may be used for each screw:
but, in case it should be necessary
to increase the speed, the other
engines can at once be connected
and the full power exerted. AS
usual with naval machinery, a large
number of auxiliary engines are
used. On the sardegna there are no
less than twenty compound aux
Hilary engines for feeding the
boilers, keeping up the draught,
and so on, besides a great variety
of slngle-cylinder machines
