He went prepared to take advantage
of every opportunity the market af-
forded, and bought only where he
could see great advantage to his
thousands of Topeka and Kansas
customers. The result is that today
he has one of the largest cleanest and
most up to date stocks of merchant
disc in the whole state of Kansas. not
dollars worth of old or out of sea-
son merchandise can be found in his
big store. Before leaving for the
east he opened up three stores in 9TH
er cities in Kansas and shipped mer-
chandise to these stores to be closed

only this seasons most desirable mer-
chandise on his shelves in his big
store today. His achievement has been
truly remarkable. only a few years
lar, and today he is the proprietor of
one of the largest department stores
in Kansas, or in other words, the pro-
prietor of THE Great Store Zandi-
ton Built He has a surprise in store
for his thousands of customers and
the people of Kansas. He will not
have a grand opening, with bands
playing and souvenirs for everyone
who comes to the store, but will
launch one of the greatest sales Tope-
ka and Kansas has ever had Satur-
day morning at s O'Clock, when he
will give to his patrons the benefit of
the large cost of hiring a band and
giving away souvenirs in greatly re-
duced prices which will be appreciat-
ed ythem in these close times. The
surprise which will be sprung will
be the beautiful new ladies' ready to
wear department. also the new mil
linery department on the third floor
and the carpet and rug department on
the fourth floor. Then there will be
the enlarged dry goods department,
which occupies the whole north side
of the first floor. The basement has
been remodeled and large house
furnishing department added where
articles for the kitchen and house
hold utensils can be bought for a
trifle. An Innovation will be the sc,

HOW LONG DO DREAMS LAST?

A German savant is investigating
the question as to how long dreams
last. A writer in the London Chron-
icle says:
"The dream comes in the few sec
ends before the awakening, and has
no relation to time or space. This
is clear enough to the man who has
ever been placed under an anesthet-
ic for short while and found time
and space eliminated.
"As an experiment. this writer was
placed under a Whit of chloroform
by a doctor. Absolue unconscious
ness supervened. Then a return of
consciousness; the questions of the
universe; up through the layers of
consciousness, with always the feel
ing Now / have solved it'-and the
No and Yes alternating through
centuries of thought. And then the
quizzical face of the doctor-remem-
bered after a million years.
How long have l been under?'
The eXperimenter struggled up, and
saw the doctor with watch in hand.
"'Ten seconds the doctor said.
"And the dreamer had been out
side of time for a time that has no
measure"

HONEY AND

A fire of mysterious origin wiped
out the entire apiary of Ralph w.
Todd and Rodney +. Jay on Kannah
creek yesterday morning, presumably
between . and O O'Clock. The gen.
tlcmen were i'm town the night before
on business and were not aware of
their loss until they reached the
ranch and discovered everything in
ruins.
Farmers living in the neighbor-
hood made every endeayor to save
the apiary, but to no availonly few
colonies of bees being saved.
The loss is between $4,000 and
$4,000, with no insurance.
The property destroyed included
the house, machinery. many of the
bees and practically all of the hon
ey that had been made and which
was about ready to be marketed.
These young. men feel their loss
keenly. but they are determined tnat

CHOP SUEY BUSINESS
GOING TO SMASH

The Chinese restaurant business in
Chicago is on the decline.
Wah Moy, who has chop suey re-
sort in West Madison street, predict
ed that this savory Chinese dish
would be only a memory inside of
year or two.
'If it wasn't for the American
dishes that we now serve" said Wah
Moy, there wouldn't be a Chinese
chop suey place left in Chicago"
1T is right that we should meet
and discuss the danger that threat
ems the chop suey business" said Hip
Lee. There were between $50 and
200 Chinese restaurants in Chicago
before they began to close their doors
and the business here amounted to
about 100000 a year.

the cause of the decline of chop suey,
