 "If the republican party Is going to obtain power only to foster institutions that will destroy labor organizations it cannot longer rely on the support of labor. I have always been a republican, but if it comes to the worst and the ad. ministration stands idly by and allows the combine to crush us out of existence in future I shall be all things to all men
 Suppose the administration should be offended at J. P.

Parasols from $I. to SIS.

In undercothes for women we strive more at durability than anything else; give you as well cut underclothes as Paris sends out, but made by machine of American nainsook or cambric, or muslin, as you choose. Our baby clothes for the past two years have been exciting good deal of comment. Little dresses for 25c have had as much babylike beauty about them as the most ex- pensive little French dresses imported, We have everything for babies from rattle to the most extravagant layette.
 For young girls we make our own under clothes. Manufacturers are careless about proportions, and SO we undertook a few years ago to design our own. It has proven very satisfactory.
 For girls of four to eighteen years we have special department where tailor-lnade suits and cotton dresses are sold. Some things we import for girls. Our catalogue tells of the less expensive and says little of the imported. A letter will bring you information on the subject.

have bu1ded on this foundation: return what you don't want and get your money back. This is as true when you order by mail as when you order in person.
 We have nothing that is not worth to us fully what you pay for 1t, and we will give you full price back if, when you get it home, you think you would rather have your money, and it is returned in good condition.
 Now, if you please, we will turn to busi- ness.
 Laces are perhaps the most exquisite of all our merchandise. So many people, who cannot afford real lace, so love it that artists have contrived to give the world very beau tiful limitations. The best imitation faces are made in St. Gall and Nottingham; the less expensive come from Plauen.
 We have everything, and will match what you have or send you samples on request. Of course this applies to real lace, of which we have a most beautiful collection.
 Gloves for both men and women.
 The Princess May glove at $I a pair is the finest real kid glove made at the price. For women and girls.
 The Royal at SI.5o and Victoria at SI.75 are very fine indeed-perhaps the finest.
 Fans range from SC up to real lace fans at high prices.
 Our Handkerchiefs are pure linen. We have never sold anything but pure linen in our handkerchiefs and never will. Linen softens as it grows older; cotton mixed with linen grows harsh and yellow with time.
 We have them plain at SC and we have the French handkerchiefs, which begin at $2 and go up to $Io apiece.

Weaver, the young man playing center field for Selma, has been working at the Avendale mills for sometime past. He has a number of friends in the city who are watching him with interest. He did the best batting of any of the Selma players during their stay in this city. He is a fast fielder and good base runner.
 Montgomery the pitcher who relieved Bailey in the third inning Saturday, Is a product of the local diamonds. He lives at Elyton with his mother.
 Kalkhoff, although playing out of his position, covers the territory around third base in splendid style. He goes after the hot grounders like an old veteran and takes care of most of them.
 Culver is playing a star game behind the bat. He is one of the best catchers in the league and gets more foul tips than any other wind pad artist seen on the local diamond this season. He is hard work CT and is in the game all the time.
 Brandt suffered from the excessive heat Saturday afternoon, but nevertheless pitched great game, letting the visitors down with five hits, which. with two or three errors, let in four runs.

It wipes out past years of pain as a sponge wipes a slate.
