ARE Trade? Look in

WE IN see what is being
sold all over for so
NECK cents and see our
price on it = rs
WEAR cents - too little,
you say, to be
worth anything. Words
and advertisements make
it worth no more. There
is only one way to find out
buy and try it, and if
you do not get good value
put us down as not living
up to our advertisements.
Our Necliwear trade is
growing all the time and
enables us to handle big
lots and deal with the larg-
est houses, which accounts
for the remarkable values
we can give you. Finer
qualities up to 81, but our
rs and 5o-cent goods arc
the sellers. Not a few odds
and ends or job lots, but
new patterns, styles, goods
and shapes.

Stephen Ratledge, aged "a years, a
nephew OF Councilman Ratiidge died
very suddenly about O'Clock yester-
day afternoon at his mothers rosi-
denee, Second and Hawley streets.
He was brlcklayer by trade, employ.
ed by Allen Il Co.. and on Wednesday
was unable to work on account OF the
storm. Yesterday morning he COM
planned of not feeling well and re.
NAMED at home all day. Toward
evening he asked his mother what she
intended to have for supper. aud then
laid down on q lounge.
In short time his mother heard
him making peculiar noise. and upon
hutrylng TO see what was the matter
found that he had expired. 1t Ia
thought that his death was caused by
a sudden attack OF heart disease. as
previous to the slight indisposltion
yesterday, he had always seemed to
enjoy excellent health. He was very
estimable young man, and deyotedly
attached to his mother.

attachment. Nothing was said in

the author of this bill Is no one knows,

sent to MIR. Spruance with a request

LITTLE THINGS FOR LITTLE ONES.

A little girl. grown i~neffably weary OF
"hat" life, climbed upon her fathers
knee the other evening and pleadingly
inquired: "Papa won't you please buy
me a back yard?"
A score of years ago, when toys were
less abundant than to-day, mothers
used to make very pretty cardboard
dolls furniture, covered with chintz.
The same pattern adopted then, In very
much smaller size, could DO used now
TO make an entire set of chairs. sofa and
table for a dolls house. Most of that
ready made is ugly and cheap looking,
and this would be far more acceptable
to the little mammas.

The Secretary Of the Interior and
Mrs. Hoke Smith have with them for
the winter the winter the latter's
mother, Mrs. Cobb, an old lady OF
seventy-fve years. When she arrived
recently, greatly %fatigued after the
long journey from the South, the Sec
rotary and his wife were talking the
matter over at the breakfast table, at
which, on account of her WEAKNESS,
| Mrs. Cobb had not appeared. 81 am
afraid mother will not have a pleasant
time this winter" remarked Mrs.
Smith, not thinking OF her little i've
year-old daughter, who sat listening.
and revolving in her small brain plans
for her grandmother's entertain
ment. Not a word did she
say, but, taking up her books,
hurried off to school. At luncheon
she returned radiant with the an
nouncement that she had invited her
class TO come to the house and help en-
tertain her grandmother. Mrs. Smith,
drawing the child to her, questioned
her as to the manner in which the
thoughtful little maid had planned for
her friends to accomplish this OBJ
iect. Then it t~ranspired that the child,
with a forethought beyond her years,
had arranged for her little companions
TO sing a song, "Grandma Sitting in the
Old Arm Chair"
The Secretary's wife warmly second
ed the child's invitation and insisted
npon bringing her DlaYmates to lunch
con, after which the programme. OF
songs and recitatlons was faithfully car
ried out, to the genuine enjoyment OF
all present.
