CLOAK AND SUIT DEPARTMENT is CON-
QUOTED IN THE BEST MANNER.
1t is an unwritten law with us, L. s.
Plaut & Co., that if any article bought
here is unsatisfactory, money is re-
funded without a word of argument.
This, however, is no reason why you
should buy your outer garments of us.
We believe you should buy because 1t
is an undisputed fact that garments
bought here always give satisfaction,
and in order to assure you of this, par
ticular attention is given to every de-
tail in every garment before 1t is put
upon our racks. You may have noticed
perhaps the Innings, the stitching, the
s'chic" custom effect that every gar
ment sold here possesses. A CLOAK or
suit made of the same material, same
lining, same length, and style from one
maker does not produce the same neat
appearance as that from the maker who
is working for a particular house and
who knows that every point of the gar
ment must be made s'just So or it will
be sent back, when delivered. to l.. s.
Plaut & Co.
The maker who gives this careful at
tention is the one that gets l.. s. Plaut
& Co.'s patronage. Thousands of dol
lars are spent every year by careless
buyers for department stores and these
garments are sold to the retail trade and
the ladies who buy them are the real
sufferers. We know of garments bought
and ld--thousands of them-which
could find no room in this store. In
spect our assortment and we shall abide
by your good Judgment. This is an ex-
cellent time to come in to see the new
styles. SO7S

LETTER TO JOHN r. PETERS
Morristown. NJ

Dear Sir: You know your painter; we
don't; we only know painters in general.
There are two sorts, as there are two
sorts of everybody else. One paints as
we'll as he can; the other as poor as he
can and get business.
The one who paints as well as he can
is all the time learning; the other one
knows it all now.
Josh Billings says "it's better not to
know too much than to know 80 many
things that ant So" There are lots O.
things in paint that amt so.' Lead
and oil is one of 'em.
Devoe & Reynolds lead and zinc lasts
twice as long; is better in every respect;
is ready to dip the brush in; you can
depend on the colors: no mystery; no
uncertainty; costs no more; costs less.
We hope you employ Mr.. Open Mind
Painter, and not Mr.. Know -it-all-now.
Yours truly,
F. W. Devoe q 9. T. Reynolds Co.
P. s. - George E. Voorhees, and
Thatcher & Pantaneius sell our paint in
your section.

The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1901-12-19

entitled THE Rose of Dawn" But it
is probably in her juvenile work that
Miss Hay is at her best, and in her
Little Boy Book" published some
months ago, were found the most de-
lightful appeals to childish fancy.
She now has a collection of stories
almost completed, and will publish
them soon after her marriage. Miss
Hay is also a contributor to the
Magazine.
Payne Whitney is we'll known in
Washington, where, as the son of
the secretary of the navy, he spent
many pleasant days. He is the sec
ond son of William c. Whitney, of
New York, who was secretary of the
navy under President Cleveland. He
was former classmate of Adelbert
Hay, the brother of Miss Hay, at
Yale. His elder brother is Henry
Payne Whitney, who married Miss
Gertrude Vanderbilt. His sister,
Miss Pauline Whitney, married Mr..
Almeric II. Paget, of London.
Miss Hay has long been interested
in philanthropic work of Washington,
and one of her graceful works is to
go to the reading room for the blind
at the Congressional library several
times a season and read for the habi-
tues of the pavilion.
The wedding, early in February,
will be Il quiet affair, witnessed by
only the families of the two young
people, and will take place in the
Hay residence in Washington.

HELEN HAY ENGAGED
Daughter of Secretary of State to
Marry Payne Whitney.
Young woman Is Exceedingly Popu-
lar and Has Decided Talent for
Litcraturc--W edding to Take
Place in February.

Secretary of State and Mrs. Hay have
formally announced the engagement
Of their eldest daughter, Miss Helen
Hay, to Payne Whitney, son of the
former secretary of the navy, Will
liam c. Whitney, of New York. \
pretty romance will end in the we'd
ding which is to take place early in
February, and which was begun many
months ago.
Matters did not, however, assume
serious phase between the lovers
until late in the summer, when Mr..
Whitney became a guest of the sec
rotary and his family at Lake Sum
apee, the summer home of the Hays.
Miss Hay is beautiful girl, small,
finely formed, and with large brown
eyes and wealth of dark hair. Her
voice is most winning, possessing
great depth and sympathy. She was,
before the long mourning period TO
which death subjected the family, one
of the most beautifully dressed girls
in Washington.
The literary tastes of Miss Hay
have brought her into close touch
with the literary people of the coun-
try, many of whom were frequent in
vitcd guests at her fathers house.
1t is hoped by her friends that her
ambitions in this line of work will
not be interfered with in her mar
riage to Mr.. Whitney. AS the daugh-
| ter of the American ambassador at
| the court of St. James, Miss Hay was
much admired, and on her return to
| America did some serious literary
work, as well as mingling constantly
in society, both in Washington and
| Boston.
A little book much liked by her
| friends she called "Some Verses" and

accomplished a more ambitious work

A NATIONS NEGLECT.
Tclah of William Henry Harrison
in a State Of Ruin.
IL In Located Mt North Bcnd, o., Not
Far from CincinBnti-shouid lie
Marked by an Appropriate
Monument.

Cincinnati has perpctuated the
memory of one of Ohio's bravest sol
diers and most distinguished states
men with handsome monument
the artistic equestrian statue OF Gen.
William Henry Harrison, that COM
mands the Vine street entrance to
Garfield place. At North Bend, o.
the place where the dead statesman
lived at the time he was elected presi-
dent-his ashes lie in n tomb which is
in state of neglect That fact speaks
but lily of the respect which the ma
tion shows for the memory of those
who helped to make it great.
The insignificant tomb stands on a
little knoll and overlooks the broad,
tawny Ohio river, which there makes
a wide sweep to the southwark. An
ideal location for the eternal home
of one who loved the spot, even as
dearly as he loved his country.
A dreary looking tomb it is at it's
best. No one could have planned an
abode more INTELLECTUALLY severe.
The cold gray granite, damp and
dank, peers from the ground like the
rude foundation for some house which
was never built Over the iron door
of the vault-which is reached by "a
path through a small cut in the hill
side-stands the legend Harrison
The door itself seems imbedded in
the stone WALL unpainted and rusty,
and marked and marred with the
scratchings of vandals. Names are
scrawled across thames of those
who are unknown, and whom no one
need know. A rusty iron lock, which
might be smashed with one blow, is
all that keeps the door fastened and
prevents the vandals from further
desecrating the abode of Harrison.
The path leading to the door is lit
tered with rubbish and underbrush
Hosts of weeds mar the beauty of the
green turf from which they spring
No one cares, or seems to care, how
the spot stands as a monument, not
/ to the soldier-statesman's worth, but
