! This is not an advertisement. It's
the story of an innovation in mer-
chandizing in the city of ROCK Is
| land; of the opening of an estab-
| lishment that's a decade ahead of the
city; of the realization of the ambi-
| ton of two boys who had a modest
beginning as merchants here 81
years ago.
Did you attend the opening of the
| women's ready-to-wear department
of the M. & K today? Perhaps
you did. Judging by the crowds,
few ladies of the tri-cities overlook
ed the opportunity to crafty their
curiosity. They were not alone sat
listed; they were surprised, as you
will be if you have not already in
dulged a visitation to this emporium
of beauty and lavishness.
The entire second fiooS, embracing
several thousand square feet, is devot-
go to the women's and children's ready
to-wear department. 1t is the largest ex-
elusive department in the tricities, and
for the proprietors of this new enter
prise that it is not surpassed even
In the city of Chicago. That's a
pretty broad statement, but you'll
testify to its truthfulness II you'll
take time to investigate.
In this new department of the NJ.
& K. there are carried for women,
coats and wraps, suits, skirts, waists,
ETC.; for the children, both sexes,
cloaks, suits, overcoats, etc. While
the stock includes the most expen-
sive of garments, 1t is not the intent
of the proprietors to close the de-
partment to the possessor of the
poorer purse. To the end that all
chandise are carried.
And such an array! It's good for
the eyes to feast upon, even though
you happen to be a man and don't
know the difference between Paris
ian chiffon, designed after the hobble
style, and costing $195, and an ordi-
nary evening gown that does not
cost one-fifth the price. Elegance
best expresses the department and
its contents.
All of the furnishings and cases
are in red finished mahogany. a most
expensive equipment designed espe-
cially for the NJ. & K. The carpet
ing, lighting arrangements and wall
and ceiling decorations harmonic
with the furnishings. L. T. Custer,
who was long associated with one
of the leading concerns Of Cleveland,
is manager of the new department.
He is surrounded by an efficient corps
of assistants. Auxiliary to the de-
partment there are fitting and alter
alton rooms. There is also a rest
room for the women and children.
It's Just a big, beautiful place,
stocked with the things that bring
Joy to the heart of the woman. It's
worth your while to visit it, and you
will find that you are welcome
whether you go with an idea of pur-
chasing or not
The show windows of the store were
especially decorated for the occasion
and are no doubt the most elaborate

When prominent men realize the
injurious effects of coffee and the
change in health that Postum can
bring, they are glad to lend their
testimony for the benefit Of others.
superintendent of public schools
in Southern state says: My moth
er, since her early childhood, was an
inveterate coffee drinker, had been
troubled with her heart for a num-
Der of years and complained of that
weak all over feeling and sick
stomach.
y Some time ago, I was making an
official visit to a distant part of the
country and took dinner with one Of
the merchants of the place. 1 no.
ticed a somewhat peculiar favour of
the coffee, and asked him concerning
it. He replied that it was Postum.
was so pleased with 1t that, after
the meal was over, 1 bought a pack
age to carry home with me, and had
wife prepare some for the next meal;
the whole family liked it so well
that we discontinued coffee and used
Postum entirely.
Il had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con-
dition, but we noticed that after US
ing Postum for a short time, she felt
so much better than she did prior
to its use, and had little trouble with
her heart and no sick stomach; that
the headaches were not so frequent,
and her general condition improved.
This continued until she was as we'll
and hearty as the rest of US.
q know that Postum has benefited
myself and the other members of the
family, but in a more marked de-
gree in the case of my mother, as
she was a victim of long standing"
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.

Speaks to Old Soldiers at
the Aledo Fair.
GIVES MOTTO HE FOLLOWS
when You See a Head, Hit It," His
SlOgan-Big Crowds at Mercer
County Exhibition.

Aledo, H., Sept. 22.-(Special)-
The 57th annual fair in Mercer county
could not have been conducted under
more favorable circumstances than pre-.
vail this week. The weather is ideal,
the exhibits are larger and better than
ever before. The Rock Island South
ern railroad gives the best railroad IA
cilities that have ever been had, and
that the people are taking advantage
of it is being shown by the crowds be-
ing taken by hacks and automobiles
out to the grounds.
The swine pavilion is a very large
building and is filed this year The
display of poultry is twice that Of last
year, and the farm produce is very
creditable, all of which is of great in
terest to the Mercer county farmers.
The grounds are full of attractions,
among which are a moving picture
show, plantation minstrel show, glass
blowers, electric show, and big snake
show.
The chief features OF the Wednes-
day program was the speech Of States
Attorney John E. Wayman of Chicago.
who addressed the soldiers at their re-
union which was held in connection
with the fair, and the martial band of
OQuawka, whose thrilling music stirred
the old soldiers as in the days of 81.
The attendance was large, about $50
and many visiting soldiers enjoyed the
reunion with the Mercer county COM
rades. The venerable Captain Lyman
Scudder of New Boston and Captain
o. A. Bridgeford, both of whom are in
firm because of age and illness were
able to attend.
Refers to Illinois Corruption.
Captain w. A. Lorimer introduced
Mr.. Wayman, who delivered one of the
finest addresses ever given in Mercer
county Mr. Wayman entered directly
into the present day conditions in poll
tics of Illinois, and the voters were
urged to clean up the state and put
down grafters and jack-potters. Mr..
Wayman gave as his motto in private,
civil and political life. when you see
a head, hit it" His tribute to the
young man having his own way to
make in this world was a very impress
sive one. His speech was full of witty
and pointed anecdotes.

M. g K. ADD DEPARTMENT THAT
SETS PACE IN THE TRI-CTTIES

window displays ever put in, in the tri-
cities. The west window represents
a drawing room of the French period
decoration, the color scheme being
worked up dn gold, old ivory and green
with the wall panels inlaid with tapes
try. In the center of this window
is an alcove with resada green silk
plush hangings in the back and against
the wall at two points are arranged
two wall candelabra with pink silk
shades and long glass beaded fringe.
Displayed in the window are the hand
somely gowned wax figures dressed in
exquisite evening gowns, no doubt the
most beautiful ever displayed in the
tri-cities.
The east window represents gar
den scene with the color scheme
worked up IN green stucco, with au-
tumn foliage and ruscus trees. Ar
ranged behind a pergola in the center
of the window is a landscape repre-
senting the autumn season. There is a
rustic stone garden lamp and a pool
with gold fish.
The whole of the window decora-
tions as well as the interior decora-
lions were designed, planned and
built by the stores window trimmer, NJ
P Staulcup, who has been with the
NJ. & X. store since the opening in
the spring.
The interior decorations are quite
i as elaborate as the windows. Running
through the shoe department there Is
! a rustic pergola entwined with south
| ern smilax and tiger lily blossoms. The
same rustic pergolas are arranged
around the eight wells on the second
| floor. Potted plants are arranged
Throughout the first and second floors
and merchandise for the fall and win
ter season is artistically displayed In
full view Of the visitor.
It ought to be a source Of pride
to the proprietors of the NJ. & K and
their friends to view the results of
over a quarter century of honest
merchandising in Rock Island. Eli
Mosenfelder and Louis Kohn, as
boys, launched themselves in the re-
tail clothing business in the city q
years ago. Both were the sons of
pioneer families. Both studied the
clothing business with the avidity of
boys who were determined to sue
coed. They got close to the people
and held their friends. Their ambi-
ton was to build a business that
would be a monument to themselves
and a credit to their home city. AS
the city grew, their business grew.
It's not necessary to go further in
explaining the reasons for the sue
cess of the NJ. & X, today one OF
the largest retailing clothing and fur
nishing houses in the middle west.
Louis Mosenfelder, for years asso-
ciated with Jonas Bear in the cloth
ing business, a year ago acquired an
equal interest in the NJ. & X, adding
another experienced merchant to the al
ready strong combination. Several
of the faithful clerks of the NJ. & K.
are stockholders in the company
also.
But what you do not want to fail
to do is to visit the new NJ. & K.
ready-to-wear department. OF course
you know all about the other depart
ments Of this big store. For in
stance, take a look at the display
windows. You can't miss them I'M
less you're blind, in passing along
Second avenue. Did you ever see
anything more magnificent in Chi
cago or New York? Hardly.

Heels originally came from Persia,
where they were used in the shape Of
small wooden blocks, which the people
fastened below their sandals in order
to keep their feet as high above the
level of the burning sands as possible.
AT first they were only four cent1me-
tiers high for men and women alike.
Soon, however, the ladies favored fab
ulous sizes, reaching up to as much as
thirty-six certimeters.
A few years later on these heels
were shown in Venice. where they be-
came the fashion. They were called
chapineys and were ornamented and
decorated in every possible style and
shape that cobbler could dream of.
The height of the chapineys showed
the rank of the wearer. and finally
they attained such dimensions that
many fashionable ladies were quite
unable to walk
