What Do You Think!

Or did you ever think about buying your
Gents Furnishings at a Department Store.
Perhaps you have thought that the line was
not as complete or that the goods were not
up to the prevailing styles. If you have, you
were wrong. If you will inspect our stock
you will admit you were wrong. Of course
you understand that we are not dependent
upon this particular line as is the regular
furnishing goods house. and that the price
will be right. But then prices need not be
talked about. We guarantee the goods and
invite you to inspect them. These prices
talk for themselves:

THE WAR IN AFRICA.
Great Dissatisfaction at the British
Governments Inertia.
SEVERE CRITICISMS BY NEWSPAPERS


London, Oct. 3.--The chorus OF dis.
satisfaction with the inertia Of the
government is daily gathering force
Winston Churchill, M. p, speaking at
Oldham, described the situation In
South Africa as serious and disquiet-
ing" lie said the war could not be
ended by proclamation or threats, but
only by vigorous military operations.
The Daily Mail and the Daily Chron-
icle comment upon the fact that the
huge British army Is seemingly only
able to remain on the defensive.
The Standard says: "rhe Beers are
fighting with a determination and a
contempt for their own lives such as
we're seldom shown in the earlier
periods of the war. Their plan is to
keep Lord Kitchener's army busy in
the north to give the rowing com
mandoes in Cape Colony an opportu-
nifty to raise the Cape Dutch against
Great Britain"
1t is believed that the government
at last recognizes the necessity OF
meeting the renewed Boer activity.
Preparations are being made to re-
place Lord Kitchencr's exhausted
men by fresh drafts. .
Lord Kitchener has sent home a
fresh batch Of imperial yeQmanry
suffering from organic diseases unfit
ting them for life on the veldt, to-.
gether with a strong protest against
the waste Of public time and money
in enlisting such men.
There Is further evidence Of the
seriousness Of the situation in Cape
Colony. The Cape premier. Sir John
Gordon Sprigg, has gone to Johannes
burg to meet Lord Kitchener and
Lord Miller in conference, probably
on the subject Of declaring martial
law in Cape ports.
