Dressing the Store Window.

changes. SO important a matter
has become both in commercial
and spectacular sense, that it is
cultivated as an art, and recog-
nized as special feature In the
promotion of trade. A store win
dow is or ought to be cameo, i'll
which We have an artistic group
ing of what is offered for sale on
the counters behind the picture.
Where this rule is observed, the
eye of the public is attracted and
its patronage not only invited, but
generally secured. Here you find
the crowd without and also the
crowd within. The clerks are
busy. The hum of business is
heard, and the cashier is in no
danger of taking nap as the
cash goes through his fingers On
the other hand, a window that has
no new picture behind its glass
fails to arrest attention, and if it
does, it is simply to leave a bad
| impression on the mind of the
passing critic. 1t is like an un-
washed face on Sunday morning,
or collar that knows more of
dirt than soap. 1t is slovenly and
forbidding, and if trade prospers
under such conditions, it is as
novel as a poke-bonnet would be
on the moon, or third eye in a
calf or a baby. 1t is needless to
say that such instances are to be
found in every city, town, and
hamlet The neglected window
has stale and invalid appearance.
The same old sadiron stands in
the corner with a suggestion of
real estate on its sombre counte-
nance. A coal hod finds a fixed
abode where the spider weaves a
web for flies on a lounging buck
saw. A stray hammer and an
imprisoned axe divided forlorn
situation with an auger and a
gimlet, that have been mutual
friends for months. A sleigh bell
has the same position in summer
as in winter, and an ice cream
freezer looks out on the street in
December as it did in June. The
idea of exhibiting goods according
to the seasons has never invaded
the petrified exhibit. The same
old stove does duty when the
world is perspiring as it did when
men were wearing ear laps, and
the pair of skates that might have
attracted a longing look when the
ice was three feet deep in the
river have still the same cold
smile for the passer by whea tn,
summer fly is being roasted on
the window pane. Now there is
no reason why this abnormity
should exist, unless it be in the
misfortune of the dealer being
born tired, or the clerk objecting
to soil his digits. In the hardware
trade as in all others demand has
its seasons, and there is certainly
no lack of material in a hardware
store wherewith to make a kaleido-
scope of its window. There can
be no doubt that little more at
tention to window dressing ac-
cording to the seasons would do
much to hlod trade when under
different conditions it has a strug-
gle to evade the sheriff. Any how
it remains a fact, that were store
window is neglected, and its ex-
hibit has the unchanging face of a
stone dog, it might as well draw
down the blinds or close the shut
ters.

The r,an With Broken Neck.

William H. Lewis, of Buxton,
Kansas, was in Kirksville Tues
day, and is one of the only two
men on earth who survives a
broken neck. Mr.. Lewis was born
in Adams county, III /, May l.,
1859. He is in fairly good health,
and is mentally bright. He is
ever cheerful, and tells the follow
ing story of the accident that
broke his neck, and witch he sur
wives to the surprise of every sur
geon that has examined him.
On July -, 1894, Mr.. Lewis in
company with his affianced bride
and a party of excursionists were
spending few hours at White
Fish Lake, Montana. Target
practice was among the amuse-
ments INDUCED in. While haud-
ling revolver it was accidently
discharged by the young lady, the
ball striking Mr.. Lewis on the
right side of the chiu and passing
through the neck, shattering a
portion of the vertebrae. The
spinal cord was not severed, but
the shock was great enough to
produce partial paralysis. After
the accident Mr.. Lewis was treated
by the best surgeons in the coun.
try, and his case excited national
interest among the medical frater'
nifty. A Chicago surgeon has sue,
ceeded in patching him up. and
prolonging his life. He visited
the Still Infrmary Tuesday anG
thinks Osteopatic treatment viii
benefit him. He will begin treat
ment on his return from Buxton
Kansas, for which place he de
parted Tuesday morning.

Some enterprising novelist
should write a story and call it
"Cuba Libre.'
No other two things hurt

lynchings and its el. -,lons.
The fact is, Cuba is too close
to the United States TO be longer

Since 1900 will not be a
leap year, perhaps the Tillmans
will not Jump at conclusions in
that year of grace.
While Spain is brutally re-
joicing over Maceo's death, thou
sands of Cubans are resolving to
be more alive than ever.
The number of Democrats
who are ''out for Congress" in the
First District makes the phrase
emphatic. Most of them will stay
out.
The Populist leaders should
at once begin to educate the masses
on the "unearned increment"
something must serve for an issue
in 1900.
Progressive Cinnamon have
inaugurated reform to quit
squeezing the feet of women. This
sounds lika a hint of the higher
education of those fellows.
1t may be that Lilioukalani
has come to this country to remain
until March 5. No doubt she
would like to see how her friend
Grover looks when he loses his
job.
We were told before the
election that Bryan's logic appeal
ed to the people. Then along
about November 5, everybody un-
derstood it had needed help sure
enough.
The recent addition of a
young folks department to Frank
Leslie's popular Monthly Maga-
zine makes that periodical more
than ever the great family maya
zine.
The West should take care

grieve to see the girl orator OF

"A bill prohibiting gold con

Georgia Senate. Thus it appears
that even in Tom Watson's own
State the Chicago platform was
supported only as a practical

-Free silver Democrats are

Cleveland has virtually become a
