Buy Leather Shoes at F. 5.
Wilson'S Store.

The labor IS just as great and costs as much
to make shoe with paper insoles, moulded coun-
ter, and leather shavings, or other worthless i'm
ltatlon5 of leather as that required to make an
honest shoe of LEATHER The only difference
in cost is the material and the cost of making
s working in, and hiding these worse than useless
) limitations Of leather is wasted, A cost The
) wearer must pay for and receive no extra value
s Why this wasted money? Why buy shoes made
Of material never intended for foot wear and
{ which is an actual tetriment? We have d. ided
not to sell such shoes. If you prefer sucll, be-
cause they little cheader Che difference be-
tween the price of eatherh and tie price of paper
advise you not TO buy of us. The extra
I leather saved by substituting paper would cost
from twenty-five to fifty cents pair of shoes,
and if any one thinks it economy to save in this
way ne will be obliged to go elsewhere Sew
eral months ago decided to handle honest shoes
made from leather, We wrote to several man
ufactuers of shoes stating plainly the kind of shoes
we wanted. We finally made contract with
) Hamilton & Brown Shoe Co. in which they agree
not to send me shoe at any price in which there
s had been used an imitation of leather shall
( hold them to a strict compliance with this contract
and ask my customers to help me by promptly re-
porting to me any evasion whatever. Now we
do not warrant the leather to wear any particular
J time, nor do we warrant patent leather not to
s crack to crack or scale We do not warrant
: shods to not out or burn up if put into the
fire. We do not guarantee satisfaction.
5 Why? Because some persons are much harder
on shoes than others. Because patient leather
are not made for hard scuff work Because
( some people could not be satisfied if they were
paid for being dissatisfied. What then is our
guaranty? No shoe bought from us bearing
the name Hamilton-Brown Shod Co. has any inn
itatons Of leather used instead Of leather in it.
We will pay dollar per pound, forall the paper

last Saturday that Lloyd Gamer,

leaving several thousand dollars
indebtedness unpaid. The report
is that ne sold his livery business

ing about $4,000 for them which
amount he is said to taken with
him. Old Mr. Ash of Trace Fork,
Ed Gamer, his brother, and Fran

the report is Incorrect, as Lloyd
has many friends in this county

was backslidden and out on the line God
wanted He began to give light on many
important doctrines which we preach and
practice to-day. One that has meant more
to our people in many ways than any
thing else, was the holy dance. In the old
holiness movements, there was OCCASION
ally a man that would jump up and down
when he was moved by the Spirit" as
they said, but for whole church to
jump at the same time in unison was
something that had never been heard OF
in any religious organization. The Lord
showed Sister White that He was waiting
to revive the holy dance, and that 1t
would be pleasing to Him for the whole
church-men and women-everybody that
was saved-to go to praising Him in the
dance. She had seen few men jumping
around in religious services, but not in
the sense of the holy dance, as we have
it to-day, where all participate in unison.
In the holy dance in our services, the
sexes never mingle, men dance alone and
together and likewise the women. When
they went at it all heaven smiled upon
them, and greater things were opened up
through it than they had any concep-
ton of.
One of the Denver newspapers called us
the Jumpers in it's headline, and from that
time the public has taken it up and is
the name by which we are known from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. The name is
perhaps attached to us in derision, but
we cheerfully accept it and go on jump
ing. Hallelujah!
Are Early at Devotions.
The Jumpers" get up in the morn
ing at o'clock and pray till break
fast at 9. They pray singly or together,
from then till night, in the fields, on
the shady banks of the neighboring
brook, in the silence of their
chambers. They hold services three
times Sundays, with more prayers,
songs, jumping, and testimonies"
