acts About the w. L.
Douglas Shoe Business.

Douglas Shoe Business.
70 those familiar with the shoe or
leather trade i. is we'll known that l
have been one CT the largest, as well
as most successful. manufacturers and
{handsewed process) shoes in the
world.
.TheWL. Douglas Shoe businessises-
tab,ished on an entirely different plan
from that of any other shoe concern.
The WI. Douglas product is market
cd in an original way. The method
by which the goods are sold has made
. place for the Douglas shoe in all the
principal cities and towns in the
United States.
The business has been steadily adj
vertiscl for nearly twenty years, until
now w. L. Douglas shoes are worn by
more people in all stations of life
than any other make.
SThe steady call upon the dealer for
w. l.. Douglas shoes insures large
and increasing business. The CT re-
tail stores in As American cities, owned
and operated by me, take n portion of
the factory's product. This is all spot
cash business. / also sell to the retail
shoe dealers throughout the country,
having usuallybu oncagent in town.
Thus, in selling the product of the
factory through my own retail stores,
as well as to retail shoe dealers in
towns and cities where have no store,
l keep the factory constantly employ
ed, turning out 1890 pairs of shoes
per day. There has been no change
in the selling price or terms in eigh-
teen years, the dealer always making
the same profit, thereby buying with
confidence. Short credits prevent the
dealer from getting overstocked.
My object in dispos;ng of half-in-
tcrest in the business is primarily that
it be perpetuated and extended. The
name, w. l.. Douglas, which is ac-
l copied everywhere as a standard of
] merit, has been applied principally to
1 mems Goodyear Welt (hand sewed
process) shoes. 1t can as well be APP
l Piled to all kinds and prices of mems,
1 womcn's and children's shoes.
The business has always been i'm
l menscly profitable. Were my only
1 aim to accumulate money, this stock
1 would not be offered for sale.
| There has not been a year in the
I past twelve when the business has not
4 earned in actual cash much more than
an amount necessary to pay 20 annual
! dividend on one million dollars, and
the past four years the business has
more than doubled andis still growing.
! l began the business in Brockton in
n small way 26 years ago, and from
l time to time have increased it, until
1 at present business amounting to
! S5,50O,0J0 annually is transacted.
! AS an evidence of the prosperity of
! the business, the fact is cited that from
I 727.S2i pairs of shoes sold in the year
ending July 1, 1898, the business has
steadily increased to 1873, 900 pairs for
] the year ending July /, 1902, or more
1 than million pair increase.

/
Sue Kirkwood Proprietor.
| Waterloo, May 24.-H. N. Silliman,
president of the First National bank at
Cedar Falls, has engaged an attorney
and will bring suit against the Kirk
wood at Des Moines for heavy damages
on account of forcible election from the
hotel.
The trouble occurred in Des Moines
Wednesday night. Mr.. Silliman had
gone to that city to attend the bankers
convention. Arriving at the hotel late
he claims with a friend from Rockford,
he registered and secured a room with
two beds in it. He also claims the clerk
checked both himself and his friend off
for breakfast together and that they
paid their bill before retiring to their
room.
About. o'clock in the morning, it is
alleged, the gentlemen were aroused by
a knocking at the door and found the
bell boy demanding adn;ittance for an
other guest, who had been assigned to
the room.
They refused. Later the clerk came
and demanded that the door be opened.
He was also refused admittance and at
tempted to beak down the door. Fail
ing In this it Is claimed the clerk went
to the Office. secured a revolver and
climbing to the transom of the door
pointed the weapon at the occupants of
the room.
They then opened the door, where
upon the clerk ordered them from the
house. Mr.. Silliman claims he had paid
for the use OF the room and that he was
entitled to its use without interference
from the hotel people. He said the
proprietor of the kirkwood would be
given ain opportunity to settle the trou-
Bile, but If he refused the matter would
be pushed in the courts to the furthest
extreme

A MISSIONARY SUGGESTION
ruartford Co,1rant I

There is a large sized doubt in the
mind of the Rutland Herald as to
whether the cause of Christianity in
the east of Europe has been mater
tally benefited by the adventure OF
Miss Stone In the opinion of that
contemporary Their is a usful hint for
the authorities of the Amrican board
in what has ben done in and for Japan
by japanese graduates of American
and European colleges. 1t thinks they
would get larger results If. instead OF
sending hundred American mission
aries to the region in which Miss
Stone had her experience with the bril-
gands, they should try the plan OF
bringing hundred picked young men
and women-Turkish Armenian and
Bulgarian-to this country and edu-
eating them American fashion.

Would Not Insure Him
Insurance Companies refused
to insure the Rev. ]. w.
Wesley because he
had kidney trouble.

This case is but one of thousands
where the head of the house was re-
fused insurance because he had kid
ney trouble. Mr.. Yeisley had given up
in despair when some friend recon-
mended DR.. David Kennedy's Favor
lite Remedy and it cured him.
Mr.. Yefsley writes:
My kidneys and liver were in
bad condition and I was anxious
for relief. 1 had tried many rem
edies without success and when /
bought bottle of Tavorite REM
edy,' it was with but little faith
in it's ever helping me, but in a
short time it effectively proved it's
merit Perhaps the best proof /
can give that 1t has completely
cured me is to state that l have
since been accepted by four differ
ent life insurance companies"
The Rev Mr.. Yeisley is the pastor
of the First Reformed Church of st.
Paris, Ohio, and is as well the editor
of the st. Paris Dispatch.
There is no question that DR.. David
kennedy's Favorite Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in the world for
diseases of the kidneys, liver, bladder
and blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
chronic constipation, as well as the
weaknesses peculiar to women. Il
quickly relieves and cures inability to
hold urine and the necessity of getting
up q number of times during the night
1t puts an end to that scalding pain
when passing urine and corrects the
bad effects of whiskey and beer.

The Grinnell News.

Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell, May 24.-The Early Settlers
Association held it's anniversary yes
terday at the M. e. church, beginning at
g o'clock p. m. The exercises were be-
gun by the singing of America" by a
choir of old-time settlers, in which the
audience Joined.
PRAYER was offered by Professor
Jesse Macy.
The annual address by the president,
Professor L. f. Parker, was then given,
recounting many of the interesting
facts connected with the early days of
the settlement of Grinnell. He spoke of
the purposes of the founders of the
town--to build UP community which
should stand for morality and educa-
ton, and of the success attained. He
called attention to the fact that in two
wears would occur the fiftieth anniver-
s,ary of the settlement OF the town,
when in all probability the whole city
would Join in celebrating the event in Il
suitable manner.
At the close of the presidents adj
dress Mrs. Fanny Sherman Rutherford
read a paper upon the early settlement
of Chester township
At the close of Mrs Rutherford's pa
per Miss Kate Hubbard favored the au-
dience with a solo.
The next paper was given by G. II.

year of $1,000. In addition to this the
city had the use of twenty three hy-
drants and forty arc lights, which if
figured at an average of $50 each would
make the net earnings of the plant
about $4,000
Taking into consideration the fact
that the plant was shut down for two
months while the new machinery was
being installed, and previous to that
operating at a great loss of fuel on ac-
count of defective boilers, this is most
admirable showing and would indicate
that the earnings for the next year will
show quite an increase over the last
The plant now is practically new

Tart of the state.
