The DOUGLAS SHOE.

The best advertised and consequent
ly 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 Tor
$3.50 which equals in every way the 20
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 go 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 11OO hands. and all labor trou-
bles are settled by the state board or
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
rol! amounts to ABS per week. This
company makes shoes for men only,
and it is their proud boast that over
one million men wear them.-Denvef

Chinese names are not difficult to
pronounce if Il few simple rules are re-
membered. A always about as in
far; e always approximately as G in
they; ! very like in machine or pin;
and always as the of rule. Every
syllable has an Independent value, and
should be given that value in pronun
ciation. These three rules will secure
as correct Il pronunciation of Chinese
names as can be secured without oral
instruction.
For example. under the first rule, one
would say tnh- koo for TaRu, not take
yon. as one may frequently hear the
word pronounced: c-hoong chahng for
Ii Hung Chang. not lie-hung- chang;
pchllin for Pckin. not pcek-in: shahn-
hah-rc for Shanghai, not shang- high;
lSoong-lie-y yahnun and so on. Under
the second rule Tien-TSin is pro
nouured tecyentSin. Iunnan-fu is
yoOnalnfoo. not ynan-fyu. In like
manner all the words are pronounced
with syllable diStinctncsS and with uni
