Novelty
Week..

The smokeless stove on
which water is boiled in our
show window has been a
great attraction for several
days to students in phil
osophy. The Jewel is a good
stove anyway.
The special subject for the
people this week is not
stoves, that subject is a daily
one. This week you will
have novelties of all sorts.
This is the season when
the hens 60 on strike and
the price of eggs goes sky
ward. Hens want a little
encouragement now and
then, and the best thing
known to science is green
bones. But they must be
cut up fine. We have the
best green bone cutter in the
world.
Another novelty is the
soap saver, made of re-tin-
ned wire, basket shaped,
with long handles. This is
the best soap saver known
and we have three sizes.
Cheaper than dirt and more
beautifying.
Dripless tea and coffee
StrainerS are new and SER
viCable. There's a cutoff
attachment which prevents
coffee or tea from dripping
on the table cloth after the
cup is filled. Very cheap
these, and pretty too.
A g. knife Victor meat
chopper for a quarter seems
like dream, but it isn't. We
sell them at that price and
we sell the HoldfaSt dust

The n. Y. Times discusses the
law points involved in annexation.
and declares that there must be a
government by "despOtism" here,
and in the form in which it exists
in the District of Columbia. or if
the franchise is given, as it is in
the territories. the natives will
control local affairs, and make a
bad state of things.
We fear that there are constitu-
tional difficulties in the way of es-
tablishing a government like that
of the District of Columbia, but
believe that a territorial form of
government may be created
which will secure the most sub
stantial advantages, and preserve
our great industry. If Congress
gives the control of the local af-
fairs here, to unqualified voters,
on the theory of local self govern
ment, and we suffer by reason of
it, we must "take our medicine" in
whatever shape it comes.
