THE WONDERFUL HOLD MEIGS & co.

 IN THIS TOWN.
 In the back of a mans coat, up un- der the collar, there is little woven to look at the label on the coat of any well dressed young man in town, you would see the name of Meigs & Go. This little label means great deal to young fellows who devote some thought to dress; for it is a guarantee of fcOrrect style, proper fitting and we'll tailored clothes. So we'll is the fact of Meigs & Go. $ supremacy in all style matters known, that many young pensive tailors for their clothes, now buy all of their clothes ready to-wear at Meigs & Go. $, and thus have even broader choice of fine fabrics and more stylish garments than they formerly had. This season young fellows are all talking about the five new and hobby models of sack suits Meigs S Co. of three new models in spring OvercOatS they are now showing. The new suits come in a big variety of worsteds, cheviOtS, caSSimereS, and unfinished wOrStedS, showing the new grayS, olive, brown and blue effects, and the new OvercOatS are shown in Strikingly handsome herr1ngbone weaveS, dfgni- nified Oxfords, and soft black thibet and vicuna. Like clothes, like furnish ings, hats and shoes, is the store at Meigs .& Go. $, where even cursory inspection of the new spring wears for young men will show why this firm s reputation as leaders in young mems styles is based on the facts of leader ship.

R. H. Beers & Go. are sending out a neat booklet advertising the reliable Pratt poultry food. In their letter they say: It will pay you to make a special trip to our store and take home a bag of Animal Regulator or Pratt's Food. We want you to try it at our expense, because we will hand your money back if you tell us it don't do the work. The people that make Pratt's foods are an old reliable Quak- CT firm in Philadelphia, who have been at it for nearly 40 years, and their goods have been selling all through our state for long while, so we are sure they have something of real mer- it. Anyway, we won't let you lose a penny. The guarantee protects you. We have a book for you which explains all about Pratt's foods, so won't both- CT you with long letter, except to say that the Animal Food or Regulat- or is guaranteed to build up rundown horses andasave feed; to make COWS produce more milk and butter as we'll as for fattening hogs. The way to make your hens pay is to have a lot of eggs to sell when prices are high. Pratt's Poultry Food is a guaranteed egg producer. There is a lice killer and roup cure, too. The women folks will be especially glad to have these articles.

 To make proper selection of house paints keep in mind the fact that the cost of labor of spreading the paint is the greatest item in the cost of re- painting. The price of house paints IS therefore of no moment provided you take durability in consideration It costs just as much to spread poor paint as it does to spread the best paint; consequently the article which preserves your building for the longest period is the cheapest. The best paint is pure linseed oil paint, for lin- seed oil is the life-giving, preservative element; and combined with pigments which the manufacturer knows to be best adapted and most durable, makes the ideal product. John w. Masury x Son have manufactured house paints for fifty years. The demand for them becomes greater every year, proving them to be the best, and af- fording an absolute guarantee of the best results. S. F. Seeley sells the Masury paints.

As we consider the many reasons why the "Lady of The Lake" has maintained it's popularity with the general public so long, we must be careful not to omit one important feature of the poem, namely, the songs. Some of Scott'S songs in his other po- ems are dead and without spirit but the songs in the ''Lady of The Lake" are full of that essence of life and movement, which awaKens us from faster through our veins.
 How many times have we heard or seen the line, s'Sleep the sleep that knows no breaking" :" taken from El- song in the poem. This line alone would assure us of the worth of the song, if not of it's beauty. Then we come to the beautiful song of old All lan-Bane, the white haired minstrel, as, inspired by the glorious dawn, he This song deals very we'll with the disappointments of cherished ideas, such as we are apt to form when we are young, only to have them broken perienced with the trials and cares of life.
 The boat song of Roderick Dhu's boatmen is perhaps the best known of the songs in the "Lady of The Lake," although it is known, no doubt, to the kIod U0E pdTU Ol Uu0 DGOpl0 Uy Uuo UlUl0, s'Hail to The Chief,'' and not as one of the songs in the "Lady of The Lake, Although this is martial lyric and bare of tenderness and love, it can hardly be believed that song of such beauty and glory would be sung by a nearly every song book, containing songs of any beauty or worth, this song will be found.
 In the third canto we come upon the coronach sung over the dead body of Duncan. This equals in merit any song that Scott ever wrote. It is nat urally sad and mournful, with slow movement. In this canto also is the beautiful appeal to the Virgin, filled with love and beauty, with respect The maiden gives her whole heart and soul to the Virgin and prays with un- feigned piety. Then we come to the merry ballad of Alice Brand with it's delightful spirit. It is so realistic that we feel as if we were actually in the forest, chasing the deer. Tue first few lines of this ballad are often used in describing scene in the for est. In many respects, especially the part dealing with the fairies, it close ly resembles the early English ballads.
 There are many other songs in the beauty of those which l have men, tioned. Some of Scott's poetry has al ready been discarded, but such lyrics as the "Coronach" and the beautiful ballad "Alice Brand,'' are sure to re- main.
 CRITICISM MADE IN GLASS BY ADA
 LAKE.
 The margin is not very straight. Scott is spelled with one t. There are some ink blots on the paper. The ideas are excellent and we'll expressed. We can see that the writer appreciates the beauty of the songs.
