In high-grade, distinctive
novelties, both in Suits and
Goats, we now have more very
swell things than you will
expect to find in any one stock,
and these we handle at a closer
margin of profit than is some
times the case in the large city
stores who sell these exclusive
novelties.
In more staple styles of me
dunn cost we have the most
fashion approved shapes and
fabrics at as reasonable cost as
they can be sold anywhere.
Just now the assortment of
sizes is as nearly complete as
we ever get it. For large wo-
men who need "out size" we
to-day have AZ, a and 4o bust

our range of prices runs both
above and below-say, $500
to 5000 in some cases. We
carried from last season a few
Summer Weight Jackets and
Suits, and a few warm, heavy
Winter Garments. These, if
you want them will be sold
much below value.

special bargains in every one of

sRArrLEsoRo WON EASILY.
Had No Trouble in Defeating tho
leominster Independents.

The Brattleboro football team, with
several substitutes In the line. easily
defeated the Leominster, Mass, hide
pendents on the island Saturday after
noon by a score of 1910. The visitors
were hardly heavy enough to give the
local team thorough try-out although
in the second half they showed UP to
good advantage on account of their bet
ter condition. Brattleboro was weakened
by the absence of King, Mellen and AL
len who are strong forwards and
Cooley, captain and fullback. The line
was practically composed of green
men, Howe, Longuil, Trendall, Wallen
and Stafford never having played In a
regular game before. They did ex-
tremely well, however and bid fair to
become fast and aggressive players
with bit more experience. The best
work for Brattleboro was done by Con-
land on the offensive and Barber
on the defensive. The former did a
greater part of the ground gaining
while the latter repeatedly downed the
runner for a loss. Ferriter and Will
hanson both did some good end run
ming, and March at quarter ran the
team with judgment. For the visitors
the best work was done by H. Cantwell
and Grimes. ,.55s@
All the scoring was done in the first
half in which the home team was not
once held for downs After rushing the
ball to within a few yards of the goal
line and then losing it Brattleboro
finally reached striking distance again.
On the play in which Williamson was
to carry the ball over there was FUN
BILE but Stafford fell on the leather be-
hind the goal posts thereby scoring the
first five points. The other two touch
downs We're made by Conland after
series of consistent gains. In the sec
ond half the Leomnster players
showed their superior wind by repeat
edly holding the heavier Brattleboro
team for downs and on one occasion
making their distance. Time was
called with the bali on the visitors 25-
yard line.
The contest demonstrated that Brat
tleboro has an unusually good lot of
material to pick from this year more
in fact than for several years past. All
that is needed is lot of practice and
one or two stiff games to put the team
in first class condition The lineup;
