YOU CAN'T LOSE ARTIE;
HE'S THERE ALL THE TIME.
Hustling News Kid Starts Out With
Nothing and Comes Back With
Money.

Dou you know Artie Finley? Per
haps you don't know that his name
is Artie Finley, but you will remem-
Der that on several occasions you
have bought papers from a bright
faced little chap who is about seven
years old in size, thirteen years of
age and twenty-one years old in ex-
perience. Artie wears an old soft
hat, dark shirt unbuttoned at the
neck that hangs loosely about his
slender frame. His trousers are
fayed at the bottoms and he always
goes barefooted. 1t would be a pity
if this description should ever come
to the eyes of our friend Artie for
although, he is generally short in
this worlds goods he is long in pride
and would resent having his lack of
haberdashery advertised Artie is a
precocious youth and on many occa-
fsions his wise remarks and witty say
| ings have startled his hearers who
have looked down in wonderment at
the source from which they came.
The other day a man took Artie into
an ice cream parlor and ''et EN- up

THE MARION Daily Leader. the
leading democratic organization of
the state, holds it's hands high in
holy terror because the republican
campaign committee. received recent
~ a gift of $4,000 from some trust
magnate.
It looks a lot like a case of sour
grapes. The Leader does not state
what trust it was, but the chances
are it was not the meat trust nor the
Standard oil. They aren't very
chummy with Teddy.

Large tracts of dense forests in Aus
tralia are practically shadeless. Many
kinds OF trees in that strange country
turn their edges instead of the fat sur
face of the leaves to the sun. and thus
one may stand under a tree Of enor-
nous size and be as fully exposed 10
the sun as though he were in the open
plain. Travel through these forests
is said to be exceedingly arduous work,
as the trees. while they do not cut off
the sun, prevent the breeze from
reaching the ground, and thus the trav-
eler experiences g sitting heat.

TO BUSINESS MEN.

Labor day September 8,
should be a holiday of great
significance to the people of
an industrial community like
Hammond. where thousands
of prosperous men are at
peace with their employers,
and laboring with hand and
brain to continue and increase
the wonderful prosperity that
it has been their lot to enjoy.
The labor unions of this
city which have assumed the
responsibility of arranging
an appropriate program for
the celebration of the coming
holiday, desire the cooperation
OF all of the business men in
the city to make the Labor
day parade as nearly repre-
sentative Of the business in
terests Of the city as possible.
Therefore. in the belief
that the business men in the
city rejoice in enjoyment of
industrial peace and prosper
ity, the labor unions of Ham
mond extend to them cor
dial invitation to participate
IN the parade in such a man.

to Keep in order and are as yet very
expensive Then there are the colored
canvas and kid slippers, which are nice
to have for Il change but would not
be well to wear constantly. For town
or travelling the smartest shoe is a
high cut pump or tie of dull finished
kid with a small kid bow instead of
the fiat ribbon pump bow of last year.
This shoe is equally smart in black
and russell leather For the country a
white buckskin pump is most popular,
but canvas is cooler and less expensive,
and both styles are correct. The buck
skin pump is finished with a little bow
of the same leather. For evening wear
the black slipper most in demand is
of patent leather, with tiny steel
buckle and no bow The heels are but
medium height. the exaggerated French
heel being out of favor at present If
patent leather is not comfortable a
beaded or plain French polished kid
slipper may be worn instead.
Shoe Trees For Every Pair.
Far more important than to have an
extra pair of shoes is it to have trees
for each pair, which are kept always
in the shoe except when it is on the
foot This is absolutely necessary
with all shoes, but with patent leath-
err particularly the slippers Will keep
in shape just twice as long if proper
care is taken of them. SO
