A Very Desirable Calendar.

Calendars of all kinds and sizes
herald the coming year. Many are to
be had for the asking-many without
asking-but to them as to other things
the rule might be applied that what
costs nothing is worth about what 1t
costs. The calendar We always welcome
has just reached US. We refer to the
one published by N. w. Aver & Son,
Newspaper Advertising Agents, Phila-
delphia. This issue seems IL possible
even better than its predecessors. Hand
some enough for the library, and yet
carefully adapted for everyday use, it
is naturally great favorite. The firm S
well-known motto, Keeping Everlast-
ingly At 1t Brings Success" appears
this year in a new and very attractive
form. The daily presence of this in
spring motto is worth far more than
the price Of any calendar. The date
figures are so large and clear that they
can easily be seen across the room. The
reading matter on the flaps will also
possess interest to the progressive.
Those who have used this calendar in
other years will not be surprised to
learn that the demand for 1t is con-
stantly increasing. Once introduced II
becomes q welcome friend. Its price
(25 cents), includes delivery, In perfect
condition, postage paid, to any address.

home. and gate opens from 9th street

stable belonging to the Stevensons and
directly in the rear of the latter fam
ily's house.
On the Stevensons side of the fence
separating their yard from the Bur-
dens', is dollhouse. To the rear of the
Burdens, and about three feet distant
from the Hotel Brunswick is a narrow
two-story extension, the roof OF which
is three feet below the sill of Mr.. Bur.
den's bedroom windows. A window
that gives light to the maids dining
room, in the Brunswick, looks out
upon this extension, and so does an.
other that lights the hotels linen-room.
A man might easily step from the sill
Of either to the extensions coping.
third window, on the first floor, opens
upon the Burdens yard The scuttle
leading to the Brunswick's roof Is al
most open, and an iron ladder leads
from the hotel roof to the roof of the
Burden house.
These facts are given because most of
the detectives on the case think the
burglars passed through one of the
Brunswick windows to the Burden ex-
tension, and so into Mr.. Burdens bed
room, while others declare that he en-
tered Mr.. Iselin's yard through the 9th
street gate, scaled the Stevenson and
Burden fences, and then went into the
Burden house through the basement
or over the extension by means of
ladder.
A careful investigation would seem
TO prove that no one of these stories is
correct, unless the intruder was acting
in concert with some one in the Bur-
den house.

Mrs. Burden, and of their son, William.

Burden keeps her jewels and ready

Four Thousand for q Cape.

Any woman who lacks q way of
spending $4,000 may, if she chooses, in
vest it in cape which the manufac-
turers are holding at that price. 1t is
of the richest Russian sable, twenty
four inches long, and with the wide
sweep which is fashionable this year.
II is lined with a pink and lilac bro
caded silk and has high Elizabethan
collar. It's counterparts in style may
be seen in the capes costing one-twen-
tieth as much, but the material makes
the difference in price. The sable cape
is made of about forty tail pieces of the
animal, and each one OF the these Is
valued at s100. They are joined by the
"letting-in" process, which prevents
any horizontal piecing in even a long
cape. II Paris fashions are to be
adopted in this country the long fur
boa will not be seen this winter. Mon
ster fur collars and short boas with
many dangling tails have taken its
place. The collars are comfortable
looking affairs and may be turned UP
so high about the head that they
strongly resemble hood. Russian col
lars of fur forming broad revers are
seen on many of the most exclusive
coats, and high Medici collars are also
popular. Necklets of fur four inches
deep are much in fashion. They are
fastened in front with little animals
head, and two or three tails and fin
ished at the back with a large velvet
bow. A decided novelty in the way of
fur trimming this YER is the use OF an
entire skin of any small animal. The
paws and tails are used to form
girdle. The small head fastens the boa
and the skin of the rest of the body acts
as a short bolero jacket.

GROW RICH. EVERY FARMER.

The editor thinks II TO be the wish OF
everybody to grow rich, not for the sake
of the money. but for the good that can
DO done with the money. Now, there
are three new cereals recently created
that will make money for the farmer.
One Is Silver King Barley, the most
wonderful creation Of the age, yielding
30. 100 to 116 bu. per acre in 1895, and
there are thousands Of farmers who be-
lieve they can grow $50 Blu. per acre
therefrom In 1896.
Then there is Silver Mine Oats, yield
ing In 1895 209 Blu. per acre. Every
farmer who tested IL, believes $50 blu.
possible.
Then there is Golden Triumph Corn,
which produced over 200 bu. per acre.
and 250 blu. is surely possible.
And potatoes, there Is Salzer's Ear
Hest, which was 1T for table in 2S days
in 1895, yielding tremendously, while
the Champion of the World, tested in a
thousand different places in 1895. yield
ed from S TO 1000 blu. per acre.
Now, in Salzer's new catalogue there
is wonderful arrayal CT new varieties
of wheat, oats, barley, rye, potatoes,
grasses, clovers and forage plants, and
the editor believes that it would pay
every farmer a thousandfold 20 get this
catalogue before buying seeds.
II you will cut this out and send IL
with 10 cents postage to the John A.
Salzer Seed Co., La Crosse, Wis, you
will receive. free, 10 grain and grass

say, and. saying IL. laugh, that this
crime, like others that have taken place
in the last few months. will forever re-
main an unsolyed mystery. That there
was collision between some one In the
house and some one outside seems al
most certain. Everything points TO
such conclusion. and yet Mr.. Burden
says he suspects none OF his eight SER
yants-flve men and three women.
or course there is no one else upon
whom his suspicion could rest, he says.
Nor do the police point to any individ-
ual In the house as any one who might
have suggested or carried out the rob-
berry. Instead, they generalize, and
talk learnedly and mysteriously OF
professional crooks" experts"
"sneaks" and "second-story workers"
They admit that representatives Of
all these classes we're in town, but they
don't call 10 mind the fact that any one
OF them had been active in a particu-
larly suspicious. way OF late, or that any
famous burglar has recently been seen
in communication with any we'll
known fence" In fact. they seem ut
terly at sea.
The crime is one of the boldest and
most successful on record. Jewels

was composed of five strands of mag
nificcnt diamonds, and all of the first
water Mrs. Burden frequently wore
this necklace at great social functions.
and very rarely did she meet another
whose gems outshone hers.
In the center of the necklace was a
stone nearly as large as a good-sized
hazelnut, which, alone, was worth sew
eral thousands of dollars. Mrs. Bur-
den's bracelets and rings were also of
great beauty and her entire collection
is valued at something like 500, 900.
