Some seem TO think because so
many of our dress and business salts
are seen wcrn by different persons
that we are ont of stock. Brss that's
a great mistake as we are. never

business man knows the trade of HIS

to such advantage. We have fine
assortment Of business and dress

But don't for moment imagine
that these comprise our fall stock.

why Is 1t So.

1t seems passing strange to us that
Shreveport has not made some public
effort to do something for the yellow
fever sufferers at Brunswick, Ga, and
the flood sufferers of our own State,
when cities and towns OF smaller mag
nitude are doing all they can. We, at
least, could like the Poet ''give to
misery all we have tear, or in other
words If we have nothing to give for
sweet charity sake could manifest some
sort of feeling for the poor unfortunate
ones who. while VIC are basking in the
sunlight of plenty, are suffering untold
miseries of death and suffering under
a dark angry cloud of woe. Ii We
would avert the disappearing frown of
an Allwise Providence we should mani
fest a feeling to be ready at all times
to exercise that spirit of love and
charity OF which the Bible tells us Of.
People of Shreveport, we are not dis
posed to believe that. you are willfully
Needless in this matter, but rather that
YOU have in the hurry and scurry OF
everyday affairs overlooked 1t. You
have always heretofore responded to
the call, no matter from whence it
came. Let it not be said that you
willfully disregard the present cry for
aid. If only few dollars, it may re-
lieve some poor unfortunate.
DIR. Booths letter to us has been fully
coroborated by the daily press. He is
