BOYS CLOTHING
At LESS THAN COST At
LEVY & DAVIS.

The enormous stock OF Holiday Goods
now arriving makes 1t imperative that we
have the counter in centre aisle for the
proper display OF the goods. When we
opened our Boys Clothing department
this fall, this being the only available
space. we assigned h entire counter TO
clothing. But as the Holiday Goods must
be shown, and we must have this counter,
we have decided to close out our entire
stock OF BOYS SUITS AND OVER
COATS. To close out the stock quickly
we have cut the price on every suit and
O%vercoat to LESS THAN COST. This
great reduction offers you Clothing at
prices you will never see again, Is you
will please bear I'm mind this is not a sale
for an advertisement, but a sacrifice sale
to make room for Holiday Gods.

teau pleat, gathered in at the neck, and
falling quite loosely. Instead of this pleat
the back may also be cut quite plainly
in the ordinary princess style. Enough
material must be added in the middle of
the back to form this pleat. No seams
are made in the middle. and the lining can
be tlght-htting. Beneath the waist the
back and the round sides furnish enough
length TO form a train. 1t is not abso-

be sewn to 1t as far as the waist. from
which point downwards the stuff falls
loosely. There are tight-ftting sleeves
with great epaulets trimmed with gold
lace. Around the waist a thick silk cord
Is doubled, which is tied in front. This
passes under the Vatican pleat, for
which purpose two button-holes have been
made in 1t. The bottom of the cord is
ornamented by passementerie stars. Ma

Southern papers are INDUCING in great
expectations over the proposed establish
NEST Of a new, grand highway of trade
which, starting from England and Aus
tralia. will enter the country at Savan-
nah or some other Southern port In that
locality, and continue to the Pacific over
the Southern Pacific and other Southern
railroads. It is estimated that by rail-
road this line would be S45 miles. and by
water $500 miles shorter than present
routes, while the inciemency Of the
northern Atlantic passage would be
avoided. If carried out it is expected to
do much in building up the South by Gre
nting a profitable direct Southern trade
with England and by an nfluX Of Euro
pean tourists. Wealthy English capital
lists are reported to be interested in the
project.

The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, discussing
the Rothschild plan presented at the
Brussels Conference, thinks that if adopt
ed 1T would not provide for the use Of
silver as money. What the European
nations would do with their $25, 0OO, 900
worth is not settled, but. says the Eagle,
'if they should circulate it as subsidiary
coin. as seems to be assumed, this is not
money, as the term is employed here,
or as it is economically defined anywhere.
The plan really provides at most for a
market for silver. This is what nobody
here wants. Most of US think there is
too much of a market already for silver,
as our Government began long ago to
find out. What is wanted is use for sill
yer as money. and that Is not contem-
plated by the English proposal.

true. Advertising has grown into

Users of the SpIuttering kind that
eXaggeration and miS-StatementS
don'tpay-that people will eventu-
ally stop to consider that a store is
not better than its advertisements.
If they put a discount on eXactnesS
of course the store believes in that
way of dealing-hence, you'll be-
ware. Barnum'S breed of people
who love to be humbugged is dying
out. So more and more neWSy
grow the advertising columns of all
reputable journals. We pay thou
sands of dollars to the newspapers

About seven years ago the village OF
Forest City. Pa, was excited over the
mysterious disappearance of William
Doolittle. One morning William left
the house TO buy some meat for dinner.
During the forenoon the meat was
brought TO the house by the butcher.
but William failed to appear when din
ner time arrived. Months went by. but
no trace of him could be found. Eve9y
one thought that he had been foully
dealt with.
Saturday afternoon Doolittle arrived
il Canondale, after an. absence of over
seven years. His mind had become de-
ranged. The past was blank to him.
except at two or three intervals, when
he could for short time remember
something of his house and, family. Four
years ago he found himself in Omaha,
and then for the first time in three years
remembered his name and that he had
left his home in Forest City TO buy some
meat for dinner. He could not recall
anything that occurred after he bought
the meat. His wife and two children,
who live in Canondale, greeted him as
one from the dead. He left Omaha four
years ago, and has been on the road
working his way homeward ever since.

Extrayngance in Smoking.

Nestor Gianaclis is bright young
Greek who some years ago moved to
Cairo and engaged small army of dark
skinned men. women and children to
make cigarettes for Americans to
smoke.
Mr.. Gianaclis is said to be the best
judge of tobacco in the world. Last
year 2,500,000 of his cigarettes passed
through the Boston custom house and
during one month $50, 900 have been en-
tered there. These cigarettes pay duty
of four dollars a pound and are sold at
five cents apiece or forty cents for box
of ten cigarettes.
By actual experiment it costs one-half
cent a minute to smoke an Egyptian
cigarette, which. makes them probably
the most expensive thing in the smoking
line.-BostOn Herald:
