ELKS RURAL JUBILEE

Beinning, June 6.--The plans for the Elks Jubilee and Barn Dance called for some extraordinary work in the way of striking things to have fun with, and it is the intention to set the whole town to enjoying itself. The first plans contemplated enjoyment for the grown folk, but the later plans bring in the children, and all the will have occasion to thank their stars that they are alive for to- day and tomorrow for the Elks are go-

Attached Cuffs Grow il Favor
4
With Smart Set
I sPa|As SUITS CHANGE BUT LITTLE
VENTS MAY DISAPPEAR ON
COATS As THE FAD IS GET
TING TIREsoME ALREADY.

In styles a few significant things
may be said Spring styles have not
changed greatly from the best of
year ago, and the straight single
breated coat will doubtless be verypop-
ular However, ii is said that the dOu
BILE breasted coat will be better thought
of as summer approaches, and some
think it will dominate in two-piece
suits. Some manufacturers are conf
dent that the two-piece suit is going to
enjoy a great run this coming summer.
The vent in coats appears to be less i'm
favor than formerly Vents are but
fads in men's.clothing at all events and
time nearly always shifts the inter-
est elsewhere.
Shirts.
In shirtings, n considerable demand
has grown up for pleatings and the
sales already have been heavy. Neg
ligees in both light and dark grounds
have moved well from manufacturing
centers, but we are inclined to think
lights will be favored most A word
on the coat shirt may not be amiss.
Several years ago the style first made
it's appearance, and met with the usual
fate of new things. Some took 1t with
avidity, as every new thing is taken.
while another class hung back and
had nothing to do with it, 1t takes
time to reduce prejudice or enthusi-
asm. In this case it seems that those
who have tried the coat shirt are
willing to admit that it has many add
vantageOus features. This spring there
will be some lines made up entirely
after thecoat pattern. The attached
cuff has grown in popularity with the
coat style, and it is said that it will
continue to increase. 1t is always
well for male buyers to state which
they prefer. In cOlors, pinks and Law
enders will be shown, but blues and
grays are stronger if anything. Pat
terms are very wide in range, and the
buyer will find no difficulty in get
ting variety. To choose is a different
matter. Some new patterns are decid-
eddy loud In white shirts the market
is short merchant recently said
that last fall he made q mistake in
ordering as many as he should have
had. A few weeks before Christina,
he received word from the factories
that his order would have to be cut
about 20 per cent. Since Christmas
he has received another letter, stating
that 20 per cent of the remainder of
his order will have to be left out. He
is wondering if ne will get any shirts
at ALL This illustrates the position
OF white shirts.

ders sometimes that shock us.
Not long ago we had a call from
a family who asked us to make a hur-

arranged to sail for Europe two days
later and they didn't want to post
pone the voyage.
What would you think of woman
who asked to have her husband buried
as quickly as possible on the ground
that a few days before his death they
had agreed to a separation, and that
she would like to put away the de-

their married troubles? That is exactly
what happened.
Then there was this case: An eld-
erly aunt who had been an invalid more
than a year, passed away. We were
asked to arrange for the funeral on the
day of her death, and when we de-
INJURED unless there was some import
ant reason, we were informed by a
nephew that they were anxious to
know what was in her will as the mat

upon what she was to get.

our office and said that his mother-in-
law had just died, and that he would
like to send her body south as soon as
possible, as his wife wanted to attend

of the country, it used to be the GUS

this man had been engaged by a cat

told to round up bunch OF cattle

the money returned SIS to the pas

ton be placed at the disposal of the

be appointed by the governor, and to

that the bill provide that the above

with the government engineers upon
the general location of the improve
ments and thus attain the main object
of all this effort on our part, namely,
to secure the speedy, successful navi-
cation Of the rivers by steamboats,;
and, finally that the bill provide that
the state appropriation be payable
upon order of the commissioners when
the work shall have been completed,
and that the state money shall be paid

in equal amounts, the division to be
made by the commission acting in con-

An interesting fight is about to be
pulled off in this state, and it is be-
lieved Aberdeen or Sioux Falls will be
selected as the field of operations. On
one side is A. II. Wheaton, the state
pure food commissioner, and arrayed
against him are practically all the
druggists in South Dakota. The
trouble is yer an order issued by
Commissioner Wheaton to all drug
gists and others selling prepared
medicines prohibiting them from sell
ing any medicinal preparation if the
label does not state what the ingredi-
ents are, with an analysis of each one.
The druggists have been advised to
ignore the order, and they are doing
so.
The provisions Of South Dakotas
pure food law became operative on
Oct. 1, but the commissioner announc-
until the 10th of the month. In the
meantime the druggists got busy, dis
cussed the matter at a meeting and
decided to ignore the commissioner as
far as his order goes. AS a result
matters stand about a. they did be-
fore the famous South Dakota law
went into effect, and the druggists de-
clare they will not obey the commits
sioner's edict. Wheaton has threaten
ed to cause some arrests, but so far
has done nothing along that line.
What he will dc remains to be seen,
and it is reported that he is about
ready to take action. One drug firm
%endeavored to make a test case, but
1t is understood the commissioner re-
fused to adopt that method of testing
the constitutionality of the law.
