SUCCESS.

We announced last week
in these columns that low
prices on footwear was
now receiving our atten-
ton. Success is already
crowning our efforts,judg-
ing our increased patron
age.
Our competitors are COM
planning because we are
selling shoes at such low
prices. Let 'em mplain.
A reasonable profit is due
us, that is all we have a
right to expect. 1t saves
consumers money though
and that is what makes it
pleasant for them and still
we are happy. No better
shoe stock in the county
and no shoes so good at
our prices.

Literary News and Notes.

The growth of the suburban trolley
lines promise to affect the habits of the
American people about as much as the in
vention of the bicycle. A few years ago
driving on country roads was luxury
reserved for persons who had horses or
could hire them. Now, as f. S. Martin
points out in ''This Busy World column
in Harper's Weekly for August 9th, all
over the land the trolley makes long coun-
try rides possible to thousands of persons
who are too young, or too old, or too in
firm, or lazy to ride bicycle, and too poor.
OF too timid, to drive horses.

There is life line for the sick. as we'll as

WRAPPED IN THE FLAG.
Dramatic Burial of the Last Survi-
vor of the Old Frigate Constitution.

Mill Creek, Me, April John
Cheney, who claimed to have seen
longer service on the old frigate Con-
stitution than any other member OF
the crew, died at his boarding place in
South Orrington Sunday and was bur-
led in the Mill Greek cemetery this aft
ternoon. He was SO years of age, ana
retained his full physical vigor until
within two days of his death.
Though he was a veteran of the 1872
and of the Mexican war, and though he
was made nearly deaf by the explosion
a battle with a privateer in the sum
mer of 1915, his pension was only $l2
a month. For the past so years he had
been subject to fits of religious in
sanity, and during these spells he all
ways gave away the last sent he had
compelled him to work hard in order to
live. When he could find nothing else
to do he made wooden models of %fOld
Ironsides,'' and, having put in Spars
and rigging, peddled them from house
to house. Nearly every well-to-do fam
mems of the old mans handiwork. As
he was a very artistic wood carver,
these toys are highly priced by the ir
owners.
An hour or two before he died he told
an attendant to go to his sea chest and
bring a bundle to him. Inside a lot of
oiled paper, perfumed with camphor
and cologne, was an aged but well pre-
served American flag made of raw silk
when / am buried put that about
my coffin,'' he said, and soon after be-
came unconscious. His last wish was
respected, and veterans of the late war
came miles away to pay their respects
to an old soldier and sailor whose serv-
ices antedated theirs by nearly half
century.

THE MAJOR HOOD CLUB.
Emporia is Doing Some Active Work
For Its Candidate.

W. L. Higgins, of Emporia, president
of the Calvin Hood Campaign club, was
in the city to-day, returning home from
a trip to the western part of the state.
He said:
"Emporia Republicans are much en-
couraged at the outlook. Reports from
various parts of the state indicate that
Major Hood is developing strength
everywhere. Although he is not spend
ing much time travelling over the state,
yet his friends are doing good work for
him.
1.-The campaign club which we have
organized in Emporia is the biggest
thing of the kind ever undertaken
there. There were 1913 men, every one
of them voters, at the first meeting.
The membership rolls now contain the
names of over 800 men. prominent
among them being Democrats, Popu-
lists and silverites.
"A glee club of probably fifty will go
to the state convention and help whoop
things up for Major Hood. Twenty
members were taken into the glee club
the first night it was organized, and
Professor Jones is drilling them regu-
larly. Everybody in Emporia seems to
be for Major Hood, and we have much
reason to believe that he stands an ex-
cellent show of securing the nominal
ton. He is eminently qualified for the
place to which he aSpireS, and would
give the state a first class administra-
tiOn.'

coLBYs LOST OPPORTUNITY.
Greed of Land Owner Gave Good
land the Rock Island Division.

Colby April 5.-When the Rock Island
road was built through Thomas county.
in 1888, M. A. Low, general attorney for
that road, saw a beautiful half section
of land adjoining Colby and north of
town, which he wanted, and offered the
owner, Judson E. Van Cleave, a snug
price for it.
The report was then that the Rock Is
land would make this a division point
if this land could be bought. The own
er of the land believed it himself, and.
so confident was he that Colby would
secure the division, he wouldn't listen to
less than $1S,0 900 for the tract.
Mr. Low being a man of firm decis-
ion and of few words, drove on to Good
land, bought land cheap and made the
division.
Mr.. Van Cleave is now on the Pa
cific coast, having lost the quarter sec
tion of land. One quarter was sold for
$3.50 to satisfy a mortgage, while the
other was bid off for 81, 942.
