Some work harder and have less than others, because their money is spent in useless ways and they don't know where to buy the right thing when they want it. People often ask us why is it our store is always full of GUS toners, whether one comes early or late We are always busy. The reason is plain. Every wage earner has come to realize that by trading with us on the Weekly Payment basis. they can buy drst-class reliable clothing for Women, Men and Children. and have money enough left from their weekly earnings to pay all other expenses of the house. Our stock this year is larger than ever before. and n our Dress Goods department you will find all the spring shades and colors at prices equal to any other place in the city.

SAYS THE LAW Is VALID.
Attorney General of Texas Decides
Against Prize Fighting.

Attorney General of Texas Decides
Against Prize Fighting.
'~ AUSTIN, Tex, July 15.-Attorney
General Crane has given out his de-
cision in the Corbett- Fitzsimmons
fight, to be held at Dallas in October.
The opinion was in reply to an inquiry
from the Dallas county attorney as to
whether the law enacted in 1891 pro-
hibiting prize fighting was valid and
operative. 1t was held by some of the
best lawyers in the state that the law
was invalid and imperative because it
denounces the offense as felony and
affixes thereto the punishment Of mis-
demeanor.
The attorney general, in his opinion.
takes the opposite view. He holds that
the law of 1891 was and still is oper-
ative. He concludes as follows: "This
law being valid, it is the duty of the
sheriff of Dallas county to see that it is
enforced. He is the authority and we
will look to him to see that the law is
enforced"
