GRAND OPENING.

The grand opening of the Broadhurst
and Barnett Shoe Co., at S23 18th street
next Tuesday, will eclipse anything of
the kind ever attempted in Denver.
This enterprising and reliable shoe
firm is now in their new store with the
largest and most complete stock of
shoes this side of New York. This mod
ern store Is indeed credit to Donver
and that they will continue to increase
their large patronage goes without say
ing. The fact of their handling the
the best grade of shoes in the market
makes the firm name "Broadhurst and
Barnett" badge of reliability. The
COLORADO STATESMAN takes pride in
this firm to all who want
good goods. The repair shop in the
basement is unique in every respect in
fact it is strickly modern store.

Inaixidualitx in SIGNATURES.

The signature of an individual has
long been recognized as the best and
mcst reliable proof of Identification.
and in consequence the seal has long
si1ce gone out of favor. Although the
modern system of penmanship tends
toward teaching the same style, yet.
Notwithstanding, no two individuals
write alike. After a person has IL
tanned majority the handwriting be-
comes uniform and fixed, the sigma
ture always being the same. and
hence any unconscious change in the
writing points to a physical or men
tai deterioration.

Women's Day at Campbell A. M. E.
church last Sunday was a decided sue
cess. The program was presented in
full with but two exceptions. The vocal
solos by Mrs. w. w. S. Dyett and Mrs.
NJ. Boyd were all that could have BEEN
expected. Mrs. Dyett possesses voice
Of wonderful compass and sweetness.
The papers by Mrs. G. f.. Williams, Mrs.
George Morrison and Miss Ethel Fit
chue were carefully prepared and were
received with marked attention. The
reading by Mrs. Esther Morris solicited
the clostest attention. The leaders who
were to raise ten dollars each excelled
expectations and after full returns the
neat sum of one hundred dollars was
realized.

Ate Head of Human Reina.

An English officer, during ii sue
cessful campaign in the east. many
years ago, expressed a wish for
well-cooked boar's head. On the fol-
lowing day his table was graced with
what was represented to him as a ma
tive dish of the food that he desired.
prepared with especial care by one of
the most noted cooks of India. The
officer ate with unusual relish. not
neglecting to bestow most extrava-
giant praise on the manner of cook
ing, and begged that the recipe for
preparing boar's head might be given
him. The reader may imagine his
horror when the Engishman after
ward received !ucontestable proof
that he had dined off slaves head,
who had been killed for the purpose,
instead of boar, no such animal be-
ing known in that country.-Ex-

Whistlinu for Exercise.

Whistling is the newest fad pat
forth by the health seekers, and the
possible result of such an exercise
coming into universal practice fills
one with dire thoughts for the future
Unfortunately. all who whistle are
not experts. and the idea of all tho
members of a household indulging in
the mournful sounds which some
times issue from some gifted throat is
anything but pleasing.
1t certainly does away with the old
adaSe which most women have had
thrown at them in their tomboy days:
"Whistling girls and growing hens al
ways come to some bad ends"

Courtney Holmes of Burlington has
IN his possession an old So bill of the
continental currency of 177S. 1t is a
small piece of rough white paper, not
over Axe inches, now yellow with

On the face there is round emb-
lem and an inscription in Latin, with
ne words United States of America"
across the top. To the right of the
emblem are the words: This bill en-
titles the bearer to receive eight Span

vANITIEs OF LUXURIOUS ROME.
Women Carried Care of the Person to
.Extremes

Women of ancient. luxurious Rome
used to eat parsley as a month
cleanser. Honey boiled in wine and
aniseed was also sweetener of the
breath and pastils of myrtle were en-
ployed for the same purpose. Silver
tongs and knives were employefi' IN
caring for the nails. No woman of
social eminence cut her own finger
nails; those who had not skilled slaves
employed BARRIERS. Perfection IN
these respects was one of the thirty
beauties attributed to Helen of Troy.
Great pains were bestowed on the
feet. for it was considered that the
breeding was betrayed by them as
easily as by the hands. They were
always much in evidence, the sandals
worn not hiding them. Long. taper
ing fingers were highly priced. Va
rious kinds of herb decoctions were
employed to beautify the fingers
Pliny gives recipes for removing any
undesired substances from the nails.

Flying Turtles.

in one of the gallery tanks on the
salt water side of the Aquarium are
three sea turtles, each about a foot
in length. the three including two
green turtles and hawksbill. They
attract much attention here, where
they can be seen close at hand and
their motions in the water studied.
1t may be that one of them will be
seen swimming through the water,
head up, with its body suspended at
an angle and Tapping its two broad
forward flippers, one on iether side,
like the wings of bird. Then the
turtle looks strilingly like some sort
OF odd bird flying through the water.
A visitor who halted in front of
this tank yesterday was so struck by
the sight of one of these turtles that
he raised his arms and swung them
with the swimmers Tapping fiippers.

Rino-Taied Wild Cat.

A ring-tailed cat. an animal decided
ly rare in northern Michigan, has been
caught by Herman Thiele, 4 Negaunee
man, in trap set at Goose Lake. five
miles distant. 1t was the first speci-
men ever captured by either Mr..
Thiele or his father, and together they
have been engaged in trapping for the
last forty-five years.
The animal has fine, silky gray fur.
Though there are some black stripes
down the back, the most striking char
acteristic is Il series of black rings
around the bushy tail. In this append
age 1t differs radically from the ordi.
nary wild cat. The wild cat, like the
lynx, is possessed of bobtai!. while
the ring-tailed cat has a tail more
