Sauerkraut, says the Baltimore Sun
editorially, is whole meal, from soup
to nuts. Woven into fabrics, it makes
warm and comfortable clothing.
Dried, it may be smoked in a pipe.
Melted down, it is the long sought
perfect street pavement. Well said; but
the Sun has overlooked the merit of
sauerkraut as perfume-permea
seductive, Intoxicating Herein is the
quality that first strikes upon the
senses and fingers longest. Free Press
There are quite good many things
to take In consideration in buying
cloak. The irst is, are you getting
the very latest style? The quality of
the cloth is very important, and then
again the workmanship. Some cloaks
are very poorly made. We pride our
selves on the make OF our garments
We buy from none but the very best
manufacturers. A cloak that is poor
ly made never looks well no matter If
it be good quality of cloth. We have
now in stock full line of ladies' miss
es and children's cloaks, which we
would be very glad to show at prices
lower than you will find elsewhere.

knew that no matter how fairly and !
mildly we might treat the matter he |
W )uld distort our remarks and ascribe !
whatever we said TO malice. So we |
kept out of the disagreeable mess nut
il seems that he is determined to get |
us in.
Mr. Silver has known us since he |
was a boy but we are try he does not |
know US well enough to know that We |
never resort to such low and con-
Lemptible traits as TO attack any man
through an anonymous letter 1t ia |
not the first time he has charged us
With writing such cowardly stuff aud
