New Spring Styles
In Gypsy Hosiery.

We believe two pairs of Gypsy Stock
ings will outwear three pairs of any other
brand. 1t is best by test. The newest and
nobbiest designs in open work stockings and
fancy goods are shown in the Gypsy line.
If you have a strong, healthy, husky boy at
your house, who seems to wear out a pair
of stockings every day, put him in Gypsy
Hosiery. They outwear all other brands.

misses last night on Military Heights.

but this morning Mrs. Page found a
horse grazing in the yard and sad
die beside a tree. Then she found a
young man asleep on the Darlor floor
IN drunken condition. Mr. Page be-
ing called aroused the sleeper and
asked whence he came and what he
was doing in the house. The young
man was still dazed with liquor and
said he did not know what he was
doing when he entered the house as
he had been drinking. He said he
worked for Judge Poage. Mr. Page
ordered him out of the house and he
saddled his horse and rode away.
