An Invitation Repeated.

few days ago we said to Fair Visitors in our store news, what is well Woth repeatng-read it if you've just come to town. Here it is
 During the past year we have served you thro our mail order department-some of you for many years, We see your letters each week and, thro them, have come to know you intimately-give us the more per sonal pleasure of seeing you-of shaking you by the hand and welcoming you. We don't know that the South IS different from an other point of the compass, but our relation with you has been the relationship of one friend to another you, from your various homes, have written us of your various needs, leaving the matter, properly, to us as friends We selected those things that our long ac- quaintance qualified us to know were exactly what you would have bought if you were buying in person. Not a penny more than If you were standing at our elbow,-nor any thing lacking as to style and quality
 sBut is this interest of ours, centered as 1t IS in you, and your best interest, is 1t simply rare friendship; or rather isn't 1t rare good business? The spirit that impels the latter IS of infinitely a finer order-it means that the unknown to us, as we'll as the known, may send their orders here with an implicit con- hdence-That Is to say about what you want and about what you want to pay, as sures you of conscientious care and honesty qualities that have built this business Tn four teen years to be largest south of Washington

About Toilet Article Prices.

There are only few things at this store which are NO LESS. than other stores charge. The few things are those articles which two or three manufacturers sell only upon condition that the price is not to be cut below a certain figure; and they would prefer dealers to get more than the minimum price they permit-and many stores do. Just as they chargeas much as they can get, instead of the broader principle, of this store, that endeavors to see how little an article may be sold for-But that's an other story. The Toilet Articles here, the prices of which are uncontrolled by the man ufacturers, cost less than at any other store. The controlled-priced article never cost more, and cost less than stores, that charge the maximum price
 Come to the store that always charges the minimum

(In Paris the "Bolero' turban IS the rage), and the model Is supplied by Spain. Away back in the old magazines of 1869 and 1870 the "Bolero" Aourished triumphant, for Eu- genia, Empress of the French, had made 1t and kindred styles from her native .land the vogue in the fashionable world The greens and blues that opened the present season as the predominant colors in millinery are giving way to some extent to browns, tans and oreys, and our newest felt shapes are shown largely in these colors-new felt hats Tn all styles and rs-untrimmed-at 75c to BPS.
 Hats with suggestions of plaid In the trimming are among the smartest of smart hats-and the pretty soft shaped toques smaller Tn size than heretofore-are charming for street wear when made of plain colored scratch felt, with here or there a touch of favorite tartan revealing itself. Wehave special line of such hats ready now, and they are strictly up-to-date and of moder- ate cost, ranging in price from 5.oo to 18.oo---they are handsome enough for the handsomest tailored suit, or plain enough for travel or shirt waist wear
 For cheaper ready-to-wear hats we have some new hats at I.5o to $50.

THE STORM IN VERMONT

Essex Junction, Aug. 3. -During the
thunder shower Friday afternoon the
lightning wrought considerable havoc
in the house occupied by Benjamin
Wagner in this village. 1t was struck
at about ? 80 p. m. and the bolt pass
ing down the chimney entered every
room in the house, leaving its traces
in the loosened plaster, splintered
woodwork and melted metal. There
were five occupants III the building
at the time, Mr.. and Mrs Wagner,
her eighteen years old son. Frank,
John Mayo and the family cat. Frank
Wagner is sufferer from rheuma-
tism and he and the cat were lying on
couch in the front room. They
were rendered unconscious for about
half an hour. 1t is thought that the
shock has partially cured the young
man of his rheumatism, although he is
somewhat weak at present That none
of the occupants of the house were
killed is most remarkable.
Vergennes, Aug This city was
visited by one of the most severe
electric storms of the season Friday
afternoon. No serious damage was
done except the disabling of some tel
ephones. Barns in Charlotte and West
Addison were struck and burned. NC
further particulars have been learned
st. Johnsbury, Aug. During a
heavy shower Friday afternoon light
ming struck Wallace Nutting's house at
Danville. The house and barn were
destroyed. The property was well
insured. The st. Johnsbury and Lake
| Champlain road has three washouts

NO GAMBLING GAMES.

1t was advertised that no gam bling
q imes were allowed to he connected with
the Main circus, vet one of the crookedest
of games was in full swing in the menag
erie tent all the afternoon and evening of
the show here, and large number were
teeced of their ready cash.
The trick was what is known as the
envelope game Beside the operator
and a professional "capper," there were
two farmer boys used as "cappers." The
game was to allure the uusophistcated to
invest from twenty-five cents to So in the
hope of winning from S. to S25.
Cards marked with stencilled letters
were placed in envelopes. For instance a
V would win while Y would lose. If a
"capper' bought an envelope. the oper-
atOr would draw the card from the enve
lope so that the top part of the y would
show, thus making V and allowing the
'capper" to win. Then others would fall
over themselves to yet those envelopes
only to find they had lost The letters f
L and q were losers but by partly draw
ing from the envelopes could be made into
F, | and o, winning letters.
Those who watched the game for a long
time say that no one won except the
"cappers" and express the belief that
many young working Lad dropped his
entire springs wages in the trap, and that
the operators profits were as much as
was cleared by the circus.
