More pretty poplins at 39c.

Hard to tell these poplins from $1 or $1.5O fabrics at the distance of but a few. feet. They have the 1uster. And the beautiful pattern. And the depth of color. Yet they are but 39 cents.
 Reason for it, of course. And that reason is this: they are made of silk and cotton; are made by folks who make a speciality of such fabrics. In addition to- this, we don t count on making a big profit on them. Rather, we sell a lot at a small profit.
 Rich co1ors and practical ly every color as well as pure white. Woven in fan cy-fgured designs that are especially tasteful.

 The police are inclined to believe that it was done by Wah1enm eyer to gain the sympathy of Mrs. Palmer by telling story of a fight with a supposed bomb thrower, believing that she would pay him reward for saving her home. They declare Wahlenmeyer perfectly sane.
 He says he has no idea why he made the bomb or why he carried it to the Palmer residence.
