THE DOUGLAS SHOE.

j II Z .FDOO1LAo S7OEs
The best advertised and consequent
~ the best known shoe in the world
today is undoubtedly made by the w.
L. Douglas Shoe Co., Of Brockton,
Mass. The one idea OF this company
has always been to sell shoe for
$3.50 which, equals in every way the IS
shoes Of any other concern. They are
able to do this on account Of there be-
ing no middle mans profit, as the
goods are sold direct from the factory
to the wearer. In 80 of the principal
cities Of the country they have their
own retail stores. The goods are made
in all sizes and. widths, and few shoes
equal them for style and durability.
The factory at Brockton employs
over LOO hands, and all labor trou-
bles are settled by the state board Of
arbitration. Nothing but union labor
is employed, and pay about the best
average wages of any shoe workers In
the United States. The factory pay
roll amounts to $17,435 per weerL. This
company makes shoes for men only,
and it is their proud boast that over
one million men wear them.-Denyer

Ruler of Montenegro.

Prince Nikola I. of Montenegro, will
celebrate his fortieth anniversary in a
few weeks The Montenegrins, the
seryians and the Slays of the Balkans
will participate in the celebration. The
prince is one Of the most remarkable
of all the European rulers. Only soo,-
600 people are under his command.
Their ancestors, centuries ago, sought
refuge from the barbarous Ottoman
hordes in the impregnable natural
fortresses Of the Monte Negro. Prince
Nikola, in a comparatively short time,
succeeded in making his land an ideal
one as regards military training, Gull
ture and wise government. Under his
fatherly ruling, Montenegro has be-
come the strongest factor OF ell the

no objects, that you can really know
