What a grand field Formosa
is Just now for those who have
mastered the trade OF statesman
ship. On that island there are
2,ooo, 900 people and republic
is proposed for them. Perhaps
100000 have an indistinct idea
of what republic is like. About
nineteen-twentieths OF the re-
maindcr don't care and the
other twentieth is ready for
any excitement or adventure.
But it is rich country. The
Chinese have undertaken to de-
liver it to Japan and must turn
it over in good order. Perhaps
Japan will assist in the repairs.
Perhaps Russia and a few other
countries, both interested and
disinterested will say: "A re-
public is a sacred thing and all
hands must be kept off," Then
Japan will get mad. The pros
poets for pretty big racket OF
some sort are very good indeed.

We propose to talk about
lamps this week. Coal oil lamps
of every conceivable sort and
description.
We will start at the entrance
of your house. Does your hall
have a hanging lamp, or a lamp
of any kind to brighten 1t up
evenings and make it agreeable
for your guests and family? Our
hall lamps are beautifully made,
the incest kind have B & H
burners improved. One of our
hanging lamps ought to suit you
even if you are very fastidious.
If your hall is large one you
need a chandelier with two or
more lights. We have some very
unique designs and late styles,
With Bradley & Hubbard iounts.
They are in enameled brass and
hammered iron. All sorts OF
pretty globes and shades go with
the hall lamps and chandeliers.
When you reach the parlor or
drawing room you must have a
lamp there. For a large room
one of the chandeliers is needed
and Tor one smaller a tasty and
neat hanging lamp. Our ban
quet and stand lamps are also
very attractive. These stands
are trimmed in brass, nickle-
plated and hammered iron, are
in many designs of glass, and
China, and have detachable
founts and with the improved
B & II burner. Speaking of this
new burner-in Lighting the
lamp you simply push up part
of the burner, raising chimney
without smearing the polished
glass with your moist fingers;
and should the lamp blow out
you are not obliged to wait until
it is cool to prevent burning
your fingers. OF course il you
have piano you must have a
lamp to go with it. Either the
stand lamp we have just spoken
of or a regular piano lamp, is the
thing The piano lamp is OF
various designs and resting on an
extension rod is very easily
raised and lowered. To go with
the stand and piano lamps we
have some OF the prettiest silk
shades you ever saw. The colors
are pleasing; they are made In
many shapes and dalntily trim
med with fine lace, making the
lamps when finished with one OF
these shades one of the most at
tractive features of a room.
For the dining room we have
the banquet lamp and you can
use some of the same designs as
for the drawing room in hanging
lamps and chandeliers.
After talking so much about
our elegant lamp fixtures, we do
not wish to slight the old relia-
BILE Rochester lamp in brass and
nickle. These lamps have been
SO long before the people that
they have become one OF the
household words and as we
always keep large stock we can
suit you in any pattern.
Have you bought set OF the
