Christmas is Nearly Here.

Already the peoples thoughts are on
Christmas. Christmas brings up all
sorts of thoughts. However, one OF the
most important events connected with
Christmas is the question of Christmas
buying, Christmas giving and Christ
mas presents.
Isn't it worth while to try this year
to spend your Christmas money wisely
and conscientiously andsto the best ad-
vantage? Think MOI jnent what are
the best things to buy for your family
and friends as suitabl9'christmas pres
entS.
Each case ought to be studied on its
Individual merits. 4 little thought will
give more genuine pleasure to the buy
er and to the recipient than ma1y>dol-
lars.
There's a wide range of syllable pres
ents to select frSm. Ifj4doubt consult
the advertising columns of THE MAN
MING TIMES. This year let your Christ
mas giving be on sober, substantial
lines. Think of the head as well as the
feet.
And the best piece OF advice is what
ever you buy, buy early. Nothing is
gained in waiting until the last mo-
ment. Then the stores are crowded
the clerks overworked and the stocks
picked over. Now is the time to con-
slider the serious question Of spending
your Christmes money to the best ad-
vantage of widespread happiness.

Truthful Advertising.

In this advertisement last week ap-
pesred this statement: Coats spool cot

take and we make haste to correct it.
It should have been CLARK'S SPOOL

We are firm believers in plenty CT
good, iudicious advertising, but we are
also impressed with the fact that all
advertising OF LONG STANDING,
GOOD RESULTS must bear the ear
marks of truthfulness and honesty. The
merchant who indulges in fake adver-
tising may prosper for time sbut If he
wishes to build up permanent busl-

will do him far more injury than gooo.

Chart Claims against them, to notify

way is to prevent the payment of the

The MARQUIS de MOres.

The Marquis de Mores was a strange
man, who came into the West as q
fantastic shadow out of another world
and tried to fashion the big, raw cOun-
try after the pattern Of things he
knew. 1t was his ambition to found
a great American house in the Bad
Lands. He was slain, as he slew his
man in the Bad Lands from ambush,
while leading a French military expe-
ditlon In Tunis something more than
four years ago. His widow now adj
vances the claim that he was the vic
tim of a conspiracy on the part OF
certain French Government officials.
He is still remembered in the Bad
Lands, where his green mansion
stands lonely and weather-stained Oh
the bleak, slant side Of a treeless
butte, and his abattoir, wind-haunted
and falling to decay, marks the low
bank of the Little Missouri. The
acres of unprolific soil over which he
held lordly sway still bear his name,
and cattlemen smile grimly and point
out here and there fragments Of the
wire fences he built. - Everybody's

SPIES IN PRISON,
Valuable Information From Fe1on's
Confidence.

!
1t might be thought that. when the
| police have arrested criminal and
obtained for him suitable term OF
/ Imprisonment their interest in him
lapsas for at least so long rs he is
safely incarcerated. But such IS not
always the case. Sometimes the po-
lice arrest and get convicted n man
who might be able to give them most
valuable information concerning other
crimes and criminals; and there Is no
time at which a felon is more frank
than when in prison, and no person to
whom he so readily confides his deeds
in the past and plans for the future
as a fellow-felon.
In France every advantage Is taken
of this, and detectives are sent 10

mon jailbirds-fOr the express pur-
pose Of meeting criminals and obtain
ing their confidence. 1t is also done.
less frequently, I'm this country, and
from time to time the police secure
in this way most valuable information
which could not be obtained by any
other means.
Scotland Yard, London, has n staff
of detectives who form one Of the
most mysterious bodies Of officials in
the world, so mysterious that not one
person in a thousand knows more
about them than that they exist. They
are employed in cases where absolute
lsecrecy is required. They never make
arrests, they never give evidence III
asy court--in short, they never do
Anything which would imply that they
have the remOtest connection with the
police. Yet they execute most i'm
portant duties. So close is the secret
kept that none Of the ordinary staff
know by sight or name any Of this
mysterious body of detectives. They
are totally unknown to each other;
indeed, the probability is that the
only person who Is acquainted with
them and could say how many there
are is the head of the Criminal In
vestigation Department.
1t is these men who, among hun
dreds of other difficult and danger
GUS duties. have from time to time be-
come jailbirds and worm themselves
into the confidence Of criminals whom
the police believe could render very
valuable information. For famous

himself in prison-dress and insinuate
his way into the trust Of thieves
would, 1t is manifest, be the sheerest
stupidity; prison dress is about as bad
q disguise as anyone could possibly
assume, and clever rogues make it one
of their first tasks to learn the PEI
sonality of every Scotland Yard de-
tectiye.
But the jailbird who at labor yearns
to say something to someone else ;han
the members of the prison staff, ana
blabs out that he wants pal for n
Job he means to work when he gets
out or some other equally interesting
item of information, may, for all Ii,
knows or suspects, be whispering in
the ear of a Government spy who IS
living like felon simply on the
chance OF eliciting the information
then being freely accorded him.
Detectives often have put before
them clues and other matters the
source of which they cannot conceive,
and not q little of it is supplied to
their chief by innocent men who wear
and eat prison fare be-
cauae it Is part Of their duty.
