Shoppers Who Like To Save
Will Select Their Furs Early.

The fur market is on the rise-the greatest rise
1t has ever known. Fur dealers have at last
awakened to the fact that the supplies of raw furs
are growing less every year. The Hudson Bay
Company, the greatest collectors and dealers of raw
furs in the world, are advancing prices constantly
Furs are a natural product secured under cir
cumstances that not matched in any other article
of merchandise. We do not believe that our present
stock of fine furs could be duplicated in the whole
sale market at anything like the prices we paid.
When we have to pay more we will have to ask
more and piece of fur at these prices is very
profitable investment.

declared today, land ! lost no time
in signing the ordinance"
The first ordinance was rendered
invalid because of the stenographer
leaving out the word walk" in writ
ing the ordinance, making the ord-
nance read "a fine shall be imposed
on anyone expectorating on any
side of the city. The intention
was to read Sidewalk" and on this
account another ordinance had TO be
drawn
The patrolmen have instructions

splitting on the sidewalk and in any
public places.

WHAT ANY TOWN NEEDS.

Commercial clubs are beginning
TO be more appreciated, and if the
general public fully understood the
intricate work of such organizations,
and could be taken into the conf
dence of the officers and be apprised
of the vast amount of labor and di-
plomacy required, most of which of
necessity has to be withheld from
the public in order to attain the re-
suits desired. such organizations
would be still more appreciated. and
out them.
The Henderson Cleaner says:
Meet most any man on the streets
and in a conversation lasting five
minutes he can tell you of a dozen
things which Henderson sorely needs
before it can improve. There will be
mentioned in the course of the talk

course on the subject of knockers
and tell you more things about them
and their plentifulness in this com
munity than you ever dreamed of
before.
THE gentleman probably tells the
truth, even about the knockers but
after all what good does his talk do.
II is only empty talk at the most and
empty talk has never accomplished
anything in this world. The only way
any man, town or city ever accom-
plished anything was by getting up
and doing So it seems that II Hen
derson has any chance of securing
the many improvements needed and
wants to eliminate the knocker II
will have to do less talking and do
more work.
MANY plans have been suggested
for the improvement of the city and
many of them are good ones. The
best yet offered and the most FEAST
BILE of them all is the organization
of a real, live association of business
men who will tremendously work
for the good of the town. II is a
plan that has been successfully tried
in cities and towns both larger and
smaller than Henderson and II has
been a success"

the necessity for action so far ahead

the Republicans have been spared
several months of election turmoil
and campaigning. Republicans will
go in this year, as usual, TO win II

fight. II they cannot win. they will
accept defeat gracefully. fall into
line behind the victors and do all in
their power TO bring peace, prosperi-

the county and city. The people, we
believe. fully understand what they
have received at the hands of the
men in county and city Office in pas,
years, and what they are likely to
receive in the future. If they want
change, which we would heartily
recommend, they can get il by their
votes. If they do not want a change,

which had been reported to him as
having died. Ii proved to be a case

Ii is well to send delegates to mu-
nicipal improvement conventions,
and to spend city money to do it,
but what will be the advantage? II
it is merely to get ideas tending to
benefit the city. what good will IT
do to get the ideas? Aren't the pa
pers full of good ideas for the i'm
provement and advancement of Pa
ducah every day. DO not the preach
ers, the doctors, the lawyers and
many others offer good suggestions
every day, and yet whatever comes
of them? We cannot even induce the
city government to put up the
names of streets on the corners,
which should have been done 20
years ago. We can't get anything
done, II seems, either because the
money is spent for other things, or
because the administration does not
appear TO be susceptible to ideas of
modern improvement. What we need
is not ideas for the Improvement OF
the city, but ideas for the improve
ment of the city officials.
