Bargain Harvest for
Shoe Buyers.

This is the time of year when all uptodate merchants
matter what their business is begin to think OF closing out
their summer goods.
Years ago shoe dealers could buy certain lines of shoes
and continue to sell them year after year without making
any changes at all in the STYLE Now it entirely different
After we have sold certain line about six months,
obliged to either buy wider tOe little
extension edge little higher or lower heel etc., etc.
We make it established business principle to
change our styles twice year. This of course
have tremendous lot Of odd stock that must be disposed Of
We therefore obliged to close out each seasons goods
as 60 along. Our regular goods always sold
at certain very low percentage of profit Odd lots and
broken lines obliged to sell regardless of actual cost
1t entirely of not what goods cost but what
get for them"

 a Victim of Smallpox.

a fAStAu VI oLn1ipoA.
 Minneapolis, Minn, April 1.--Health department officials are pointing to the death of Charles Stevens yesterday as a signal instance of the fallacy of the characterization position. As secre- tary of the Anti-vaccination league. of this city, Mir Stevens had steadfastly refused to be vaccinated.
 It is regarded as n significant fact that the attack to which MT Stevens succumbed was the most malignant case of smallpox on record in this city. From the first the physicians entertain ed scarcely hope of saving him. MT Stevens had frequently denounced vac cination as barbarous practice entire ly without efficacy in either preventing or staying the progress of smallpox.
