It's a pleasant story.

One never tires in telling it.
No one ever tires in hearing it.
There's Such a fascination
about this story Of Lace.
No matter when you tell it,
or where, the eye grows softer
and the voice gentler.
For it touches the very inner
circle of woman's love for
pretty things, and with it she
satisfies more longings for the
beautiful in dress than in any
other way.
1t is all her own-the love
Of it is not for public display,
she fondles it when no one is
near, she treasures it because
it is precious to her.
A bargain in Lace touches
every lady; you want more
yards of it than you often think
best to buy.
Now-kAlS very moment-
you can get more yards for the
money you can spare than
you're likely to get in TorcAom
or Meaaca Laces during this
year.
For 22c the "chief" prom
ises you something remarkable,
and, his judgment is worthy
fullest faith by every one.
He says that this accent
lace is really the most re-
markable bargain in this quail
ity ever secured by US"
So, then, you may come
here prepared to get great
bargain, and we are sure that
you will be more than satisfied.
There is some that is ex-
cellent for Ioc, and really good
can be had at sc a yard that
will be all right for many uses.
Thanksgiving is coming and you
won't forget about your LINENS, will
you?
The table will have an abundance
upon it.
Surely you WILL have delicate
white covers and dainty TRAY
CLOTHS to embellish it.
Have you thought it over?
Have you decided upon what must
be had?

The First American Railway.

The first railway built in the United
States was three miles in length, ex-
tending from the granite quarries at
Quincy, Mass, to the Neponsett river.
1t was commenced in 1926 and finished
in 1927. The gauge was five feet; the
rails were pine, foot thick, covered
with hard oak, which was in turn strap
ped with iron. In January, 1927, a
short coal road was completed from the
mines to Mauch Chunk, Pa. The rails
on this road were also Of timber with
fiat iron bars. The first locomotive for
use on a railroad was invented by Rich
ard Pre-iteck in 1904, and first tried il
Wales. Geo. Stephenson built the first
really successful locomotive in 1914,
and tested it upon the Killingwood road
in the north of England. The first To-
comotive for actual service constructed
in America was E. l. Miller's BEST
Friend" built for the South Carolina
railroad company in 1880; Peter Cooper
built little earer mental locomotive
early in 1880, before the Best Friend"
was completed,-St, Louis Republic.
