 Owing to the elevation, Flagstaff be- ing 1000 feet above the sea, the tenn perature even in summer is low, while the scenery is unsurpassed anywhere on earth
 The Coconino club has made ar ran gements to furnish all the neces- saries, such as board, lodging, etc., at the remarkably low rate of $10 for each wheelman. The Atlantic & Pacific railroad will place the lowest possible rate in effect, and everything points not only to pleasant trip. but to a triumph of bicycle enthusiasts.

We have discovered that, beyond the state
ment of a six-year-old child, there Is no
evidence to show that a human body has
been creinated or in any other way dis

on Credit!

The old "bugaboo" no.
tions about credit buying
have been exploded since we
| came with our liberal credit
system. Where you used to
pay for the accommodation
of time, you are now given
all the time you want free.
It's just another way of do
ing business-and any store
could do it if they had the
capital and the buying power
which we have.
We have gotten the suits
which we used to sell, and
which everybody sells now,
for 50 and SO down to
Sc. 5O-fne cassimeres and
cheviots-and our $40 navy
and black serge suits are
sold all about town for SIS
and they don't guarantee the
color to last, either-and
they don't say "pay for them
as you can.
Of course we expect some
folks to be prejudiced for
awhile, but one by one
they'll get better acquainted
with our liberal credit sys-
tenn and our low prices, and
they will come in the fold.
We got quite a stock OF
Mems Duck Pants-S1 and
81. so ones-which we'll
offer for 49c per pair.
Won't last long.
