SOMETHING ABOUT SHOES.
Its a Great Thing to Shod Your Feet Comfortably.

.5 ~ Comfort ably.
 When you stop to think of it person uses his feet as much almost as his hands and head. And the desire for comfort reaches to your toes. The shoemaker studies your feet like the optician notes the squint of your eye. At Cosgrove's shoe emporium they are just now having great sales on "The Slip-on- Easy Kind" They are for con- venience as well as comfort. Ladies' Oxford Ties are also to be had in dainty shapes and comfortable proportions. Mems Oxfords and girls and boys shoes at the emporium are in models of par excellence of footgear. It's a great thing to have feet, and it is also great to have them shod comfortably and well, and the superlative degree is experienced when you are fitted at Cos groves shoe emporium, corner Church and Crown streets. It always pays to trade at Cosgrove's.

Why THIS DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST WOMEN

The assertion is continually being
made by the opposers of woman
suffrage that women work under
no disadvantage as result of their
acknowledgements.
Another striking object lesson
showing the unjust Discrimination
between the wages paid men and
women for the same work has come
70 our notice through the appoint
ment of woman of large expert
ence as Librarian in the Public Libr-
AIRY in Minneapolis. 1t seems that
the woman in question had been as
sistant librarian for dozen or
more years and so efficient was she
in the discharge of her duties that
she was generally recognized as the
working head, and was so recogniz-
ed by the librarian himself who de-
pended largely upon her sagacity
and resources in administering his
Office. But when the librarian re-
signed and the assistant, who had
been for years the working head,
was appointed to I'LL the vacancy,
her salary was not only cut down
to 81, 600 year less than the man
had received, but the Office of as
sis.ant librarian was abolished and
the duties of both Offices thurst up
on her at $1,000 year less than
the man received for the one Office
Nor is this discrimination
against women anything unusual.
The same holds good in many posi-
tons occupied By women and
especially in that of teaching.
While the Minneapolis librarian
was deprived Of her legitimate com
pensauon ostensibly because she
was a woman, as matter of fact il
was because she belongs TO dis.
franchised class. This Is proven
by the fact that in States where
women vote they receive equal pay
with men in public Offices for equal
work.
II the men who are crying out
against women taking their work
from them would help the women
to secure the ballot and through the
ballot secure equal pay in all public
positions, it might result in more
men being employed, that is, IL
they did as good or better work
than the women which Is now given
as reason for their receiving more
wages. Give women equal wages
and the rest will adjust itself &C.
cording 70 the fitness Of the indi-
vidusl for the position.

GROVER DECLINES.


New York, Nov. a7,-The
Brooklyn Eagle this afternoon pub
fishes letter from Grover Clevc-
lsnd in which he declines considera-
ton as presidential candidate and
says his determination in this regard
Is ''unalterable and conclusive. !"
The letter follows: "My dear Mr..
McKelway: have waited for a long

should be said to you before others.
"You can never know how grateful
/ am for the manifestation Of kindly
feeling toward me on the part of

ton would seem necessary or pro-
per. ''In the midst of it all and in
full view of every consideration pre-
sented. have not for a moment
been able, nor am I now able, to
open my mind to these thoughts
that in any circumstances or upon
any consideration, / should ever

IrEms OF INTEREST.

From the Tucker County Herald.
Several weeks ago the Herald in
Its news columns noticed the fact
that in portions of this state mer-
chants were in legal trouble because
Of their selling certain patent medi-
cines--notably Peruna. The Wayne
County Herald says several mer-
chants in that county have been
convicted and fined sroo and costs,
in cases brought against them.
The total fines amounted to between
500 and $500.
The Davis Republican, after an
existence Of eleven years, has sus-
pended publication and is not likely
TO be revived as those interested in
the Company--Mr. A. II. Cunning
ham, Mr.. A. NJ. Stsllings, Mr..
Wayne X. Pritt and others are not
apparently concerned enough to go
ahead with the enterprise. Capt.
A. r. McArdle, the editor, has re-
turned to Cumberland. The proper
~ is a good one and Capt. McArdIe
has sent out an excellent paper, but
there we're other difficulties.
II is related that a newspaper man
not more than a thousand miles
from Davis, recently received a let.
ter from a distiiling firm asking for
list Of names of citizens who
might be interested in the literature
Of new brand Of whiskey and
promising him a commission on all
sales. The newspaper man being a
joker himself sat down and made
out list Of the principal Prohibi-
iionists Of the place and forwarded
II. He forgot all about IL until a
few weeks later, when he received a
letter from the distiiler enclosing a
draft for sr6.so with thanks for the
list which had been found peculiarly
remuneratiye.
