"WAUKBNPHASTS' :

Mems "waukenphasts." or shoes
this shape we've had something TO say
once before this spring. A new make Is
here to-day for the first time. They are
marked to sell at &5 pair. At no price
above IT is there any make of" Wauken-
phasts" In the market sleeker nor neater
shaped than these. In many of the lead
ing shoe stores of America to-day they
are supplanting the higher priced shoes
of renowned makers. The reason for this
becomes apparent to every shoe man
after q critical examination of the many
points OF excellence possessed by them.
These "Waukenphasts' are described by
the makers as ian everyday shoe u
moderately stout walking weight for
men who walk or stand a great deal. The
fronts are of superior calfskin Of stand
ard wearing weight, cut whole, without
seams at the side The tops are DOngOla,
soft, pliable and damp proof. The sew
Ing OF the soles, called stitched aioft, is n
special feature. The stitches show ON the
bottom. This gives more strength TO the
stitch and fiexibility to the sole, which
is very desirable, the latter being of a
stout substance, tough and serviceable.
Nothing Is used In this line of "Wauken-
phasts" that will in any way cheapen
them. They fit the formation of the bot
tom rs well rs the top of the foot hence are
positively easy and comfortable in wear.
The best evidence that skilled work peO-
pie alone are engaged in the making of
them Is the best attested by closely exam
lining and judging them upon their
merits. We bide favorable result with
confidence.
Other grades of Waukenphast -
$3.50, $500 and "a kinds. Plenty sorts to
choose from. 1t will be easy for us to
suit you.

" | Cannot Afford It,"

Hurrah for the man who is able 10 say
In manly, unblushing and sensible
way,
" cannot afford it," when tempted to
buy
Whate 'er will distress him when pay day
is nigh.
Hurrah for that man. Though his way
we neglect,
He has our profoundest, sincerest re-
spect
To him-be he ever friend or foe
Unchecked admiration we all have to
show.
And well he deserves it. He teaches the
way
Of boldly ignoring what people may say
Or think in a matter which only concerns
The one who, for reasons, extravaganza
spurns.
We honor him truly-though seedy his
clothes;
We love him-Though little of fashion he
shows;
We trust him though
poorer than clay:
We pray that our children may grow in
his way.
And isn't he happy Just look at his
face.
Of care or worry there isn't trace.
His conscience is clear. All the riches or
earth
Can't give him the joy that right doing ii
worth.
No statesman. no ruler, no great soldier
brave,
Is prouder than he-who's nobody
slave.
~ cannot afford it." All praise to tn,
man
Who fearlessly says it and lives on tina
plan.

colored men and all the whites with
the exception of few Italians joined

Baltimore for foreign help and car
load of Italians arrived Thursday
evening. The work on the yards is
not progressing very rapidly, owing
to the fact that the hands employed
do not work regularly, and they are
constantly leaving and new ones being
taken on in their places. 1t is not
known whether the strikers demands
will be granted or not, as the contrac.
tor says he cannot afford TO pay high

years. A husband and five children
survive her. Mr.. and Mrs. Guy are
well-known in this county, having
been yearly visitors for the past thirty
years. One of their sons is a pugilist
of no mean renown. He recently
stood up before Jackson, in Washing
ton, and in the number of rounds
agreed upon Jackson failed to knock
him out. The death of Mrs. Guy
is regarded as calamity to the party.

Some of the HERALD readers may
have mistaken our comment on the
High School Superintendency as re-
ferring to the present incumbent. 1t
left him out of the question entirely,
and merely said what he knows as
well as everyone else, and what we
said before he was ever appointed,
that the position of Superintendent
should be filled by home teacher.
But until such a one qualities himself
and applies, there is policy in letting
well enough (best) alone.
Prof. Cox does not want to teach
school forever. He has high literary
qualifications thGt fit him for college
professorship or the presidency Of
some educational institution, or even
for journalism if his inclination runs
that way.
