SPIRIT OF UNREST
 NOW SEEING ITALY
fsnecial from United Press)

Rome, Nov. 3.-Revolutionary ac- tivity is developing so rapidly throughout Italy, that, today, there is a growing fear among royalty that King Victor Emanuel may be the next ruler to suffer the fate of King Manuel of Portugal whose throne was swept away over night.
 The spirit of unrest is now affect ing every quarter of the country. It is partly due to the recent prodiglous increase in the cost of living, partly to popular discontent with the op- pression of the great land owners and partly to the contagion of the example of Portugal.
 Cost of food products is so high that there are hundreds of thousands of the population in the poorer parts of the country actually on the verge of starvation In the Revina dis trict, which is just now particularly turbulent the government was re- gently compelled to reinforce the To- cal garrisous with 1,500 troops and the authorities are again complaining that they must have additional troops or they will not answer for the conse- ouences. Similar conditions prevail in many quarters and hardly day passes that there are not reports made that clashes have occurred be- tween soldiers and peasantry.

Fancy slippers, new and rich, for women.

Easiest thing there is to write is this: Nicest lot of fancy slippers that we ever had.
 But that is the memoran- dunn the shoe-man made. And 1t is true.
 In variety, in beauty, in grace, in fineness of making, in trimness, in daintiness; In each and every one the slip pers that make up this col lection are truly excefling. It takes special skill to, make slippers for women. That skill is possessed by but a few makers. And they are the makers whose out put finds place in the How land store. Men who know and do; men whose ability to plan is equalled only by their ability to make dainty well-ftting and good-wear- ing slippers. But a whole column of talk would not portray these slippers as they are. You just have to come and see them. 1 Patent leather. l Dull leather.
