Cloth. For Presents In Japan.

OF one singularly attractive and dec
orative detail of japanese daily life lit
tie is known in this country. Yet 1t
touches all classes, from mobiles to
coolies-the use Of present cloths.
These are squares of all sorts Of mate
rails, from twenty inches TO two yards
across. They are used to tie up the
gifts which are exchanged on all posi-
BILE occasions. After the presentation Of
the gift the cloth is removed and re-
turned to the giver by servant. These
cloths are handed down from genera
ton to generation, and among them are
found some of the finest specimens of
the old embroidery and dyeing. Many
Of the square pieces Of japanese en-
broidery used in this country for pillow
and table covers were originally used

AT BUENA VISTA.
The Only Preparations General Tay-
Tor Made For Defeat.


Santa Anna was the greatest military
leader the Mexicans have ever known.
Santa Anna with $4,000 veterans went
to the battle OF Buena Vista with the
avowed purpose of DISCRIMINATING the
entire army of the United States, and
there was no doubt In the mind OF
Santa Anna that this great feat could
be accomplished with comparative
ease. General Taylor, with his 5000
men. prepared for the unequal contest,
and not only defended himself success
fully. but won a substantial victory
from his aggressive antagonists and
drove them from the battlefield OF
Buena Vista.
Some time after the battle was fought
and the Mexican war concluded Gen.
eral Taylor was criticised for having
made no preparations for the retreat
Of his army in the event Of defeat.
General Taylor promptly replied: Il
made every preparation necessary for
the battle Of Buena Vista. / wrote my
will, and SO did nearly every man in
my army. If we had not won that
battle, we would have needed no lines
Of retreat. 1t was, from our stand
point, victory or humiliation. The only
preparation necessary for the contin-
gency of defeat at Buena Vista was
that we should write our wills"

For the Man
Who Works.

If he is saving of his money, the best outfit for
man that works at any kind of hard out door labor
is first OF all a shoe of heavy leather with thick
soles strongly made-one that will, in a measure
turn water, and stand all kinds of hard knocks
Such a shoe of good quality be had at our store
for from 81. 50 to 81 90.
Then for evening the man who works should have
pair of good easy, roomy slippers to slip when
his work is done and he sits down to enjoy the
= evening paper. We have them at 5oc 75c and ST..
The 75c slippers are of grained Calf Skin with real
sole leather soles and can be in the garden
anywhere about the yard They fine for rest
ing the feet and the shoes, too. They say that if
shoes have rest, that is, not in steady wear
they last ever SO much longer. Now worker
needs one thing the foot wear line, and
that is Sunday dress up pair of Shoes lighter
and finer Than the every day pair. For this
there is nothing better than Vci Kid at So. 90
pair or Royal Kid at $3.50 The Pingree Kid
Shoes cost So, $35 or Sd and they certainly
worth the money.
Once in a while there is who does not like
kid of any kind, and for him we have Velour Calf,
soft, thin leather, very tough and durable
Box calf trihe heavier than the Velour, and
favorite with men who are hard shoes, Patent
Colt Skin, a bright ustrous leather-the best Of all
the shiny feathers.
This whole outfit will last year and costs
from ST. 90 to 5000 or $500. OF course you don't
have to buy them all at once but it is good way
to do The shoes we have spoken of the best
of their kind; many of them made specially for
us according to our own plans and specifications
We can recommend them for know who made
them and what they made Of
Every fall we think we are we'll hooked up for the
shoe business, but this particular season we have
certainly the best showing in all kinds of work-a-
dav and dress footwear that we have had
Let us be your shoemen this and we will do
you good
AS last word, don't forget the Gold Stamps.
Take them home to the of the household if
you don't care for Them They will appreciate them.

being connected with house of i'll fame
on Railroad street, and who declared
that they were not guilty, changed their
minds after several days imprisonment
at the county Jail. This forenoon. IN the
local city court, they were glad enough
70 retract their pleas and admit they
were guilty. The Smith woman, lie
older Of the two--and She laid claim to
only twenty-five years said 4guiItye to
the charge Of keeping house OF in
fame. Iessie Warren, aged 10 wears
was arraigned on the charge of open and
gross lewdness. She did not hesitate
to say that the charge was CORRECTLY
made Both were decidedly more ri
served than they were when brought into
city court the first time.
The cases Of both were continued for
sentence, bail Of $500 being fixed in
each case and furnished. The states

OF the hall into consideration. / think

like Barre, exclusively ia the granite
business cannot have better accommodation
for such a school. Such a school IN 4
place like this where fine monumental

Mr.. Editor, think if the CITY would
gave suitable place free nand I don't

give q little monetary help we should
have a drawing school that in the wears
