A Cheap Tailor is
Always Dangerous

He can't give even as good
value as a good cIothier. He
tries to meet ready'made prices
and to give special order facil-
tiles. The result is a botch.
Medium priced clothes can be
bought at a clothing store with
every assurance of reliability.
but low grade tailoring is worth
less. The expense of making
each slit singly is too great to
allow anything except the poor
est grade Of workmanship.
and the hand~work in clothes is
the only thing which keeps the
shape. The cheap tailor hasn't
enough Of a margin left after
he has calculated his cloth and
his special cutting to put any
thing but the most desuIfory
craftsmanship into his fabrics.
He merely cuts his suits, but
he has them made in sweat
shops. No other system will let
him come Out even. Good tail
oring is expensive. but it is
worth while. A merchant tail
or cannot produce better gar
mentS than ready-madeS and
meet ready-made prices while
he is doing it.

EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURE
or the Scotch Herring Boat, Sunshine.
 In the North Sea.

London. December 25.-(Special.) )-Scot- tish herring boat Sunshine. on her arrival here brought news of an extraordinary adventure in the North sea.
 While the crew of the Sunshine were bouling In their nets one early morning they were run down by a Russian brig The fishermen, believing their vessel to be sinking, climbed over the foreign ships bowsprit and to their amazement found nobody on deck.
 The Russian captain came up from be- low and asked the men If they were Frenchmen, as he was bound for France
 Finding they could not maneuver tho brig back to the Sunshine. two of the fishermen took one of the Russian ships boats and pulled back to their own ves- sell They found that though she was badly damaged she could be kept af1oat
 Meanwhile the other four Scotsmen were being carried away on board the brig. The Sunshine, therefore, made nasty sig nals to the Buckle steam herring boat. which left her nets. went to the Russian vessel, lowered her own boat and took off the 'lxidnapped' crew, towing back to their own ship
 Finally. the Sunshine. after repairs at sea. was able to proceed to harbor.

of willows. hadn't been in long before l was joined by fox that came worry ing his way in, tired and panting.
 Tt was plain that he was expecting to find something there that he didn't find and the astonishment on his face was something worth going miles to see. I necked him on sight and dragged him out for the dogs to settle with, which they did with much joy.
 Then I mounted my horse and rode on to the hollow tree trunk. I grouped the dogs about 1t at the tip end. I rammed a long stick in at the hollow in the butt. Pop. went a fox right out into the jaws of the pack, and in short order ] had another brush to my credit, making three. Then on to the blind ditch.
 ''The dogs seemed to fall to the scheme. and when we got to the ditch pell mel they went into 1t. They came out very soon and with them came another fox that yielded me fine brush. From the brush pile we reaped a fifth fox and the mystery of the spook fox was solved.
 "The club points to those five fine red fox brushes to this day and gloats in telling how the foxes that once proudly trailed them played 1t on us by having a fresh fox every five miles on the course to take the place of the tired one and lead us on Cunning of the red fox? Yes And the half of 1t has never been told /"
