NEW WINDOW DISPLAY
Crowds of People Attracted to
Smith Jswerly House.

A crowd of people gather every day
ana evening to witness novel window
display at The T. X. Smith Jewelry
House, No. 1T South Market street.
The feature OF the window that at
tracts attention is an exhibit by NOV
ing figures of the difference between
a self-filling fountain pen and the old
method of filing with tube. and bulb.
rhe work OF the figures is decidedly
clever. This is the first time the ex-
'hibit has been made in city the
size of Oskaloosa. 1t was brought
here from Minneapolis and is an ex-
.pensive piece of advertising.
One figure is that OF a clerk with the
self-filling pen. He places it in an
ink well and the work is quickly and
neatly accomplished. The man with
the pen in one hand and filler in the
other misses the top of the pen holder
and squirts the ink all over himself
and everything else in reach, but sou
know how it is if you have used a
fountain pen, That is what makes the
exhibit interesting. 1t is so true TO
life that it is highly amusing.
The one hundred dollar check pay
able to Chief OF Police James Glasysof
oskaloosa as reward for catching
jewelry store burglars is shown in
the north window opposite the fopn-
tain pen show 1t is also attracting
the eye OF the passersby.
