To the Voters Of the Third District: !
am plain farmer, but ! see no reason
why / am not justified in asking my TEL
low citizens OF the Third district TO give
me their support to representthcmin the
Sixty-Third Congress. ! have announced
for that Office, and in order that thepeo-
pie may know my views on public mat
tiers ] submit them the following sum
mary Of my political beliefs.
In the first place, | stand for and adj
yocate every principle set out in theplat-
form OF the democratic party The
supremacy of the people is the Chief
corner stone Of our government, and that
supremacy should be maintained at any
cost. Hence, anything that savors OF
class legislation is entirely foreign to my
ideas of right of right. The will OF the
neople must control. In order that il
NAV do so it is the duty Of those men
whom the people elcCb as bilcii iSE'l C9Nhoss
tatiyes to see to it that all expressions o.
the people will are enacted into wisely
constructed laws.
Conserve NATURAL RESOURCES.
/ will advocate and vote for all reason
able measures that look to the improve
ment and conservation Of the natura
resources Of the country, as forests, soili
and waterways. In particular, believe
in such legislation as secures the con.
tinued public ownership Of public lands
containing phosphates, ores, minerals
and coal. The interests Of the people
should be carefully considered in thi'
connection, especially where the lands ii
question yield mineral supplies, such al
are used in the manufacture Of CONNER
cial ferliI zers and other commodities
yielding a profit.

New Tailored Fashions
 For Women

The new tailored styles for women now being exhibited in the fashion shops of Paris (so writes Mme Backer of our Dressmaking Department), and modified for American women to wear, are beautifully translated into the new woolen suits that have taken their place in our garment stock.
 The interesting features of these new suits are the heightened coats 32 to 34 inches long, the cutaway coat tails, the braided edge, the mod erately plaited skirts the full length sleeves.
 Two toned Diagonas seem to predomnate, al though Wool Corduroys and Government Serges are included in these first arrivals. The new blues, the new browns and the new mulberry are evident, and blacks and navies are in abundance.
 And while you taking a superficial inven- tory of these new features, be impressed with the infinite with which every suit here is selected to detail-that every line button and stitch may be quite perfect. Surprisingly less than ever before, the tickets on these new suits read 27.50, 5000 $500, 4000 and 42.50

The Chief Surprise Ofthe August Furniture Sale $1OOOO Shipment of Fine Dining-Room Fur
 nture Unexpectedly Arrives

Say right now that you begin with the dining room. Decide on a scheme. Study the period. Select the first piece offurniture right. Make it strike key note and build around it. Avoid an in- discriminate mixture. If you like Colo nial-buy the first piece Colonial, and then always select Colonial for that din ing room when you can afford to get other pieces.
 If you favor Early English or Ma hogany or Fumed Oak, of the periods Sheraton, Chippendale, Jacobean, keep it all the way you started with the first piece.
 The work of furnishing or remaking your home will be most delightful if you go about it in this orderly fashion.
 All of this shipment of dining room furniture is good furniture. It must yield years and years of service and sat- isfaction; for if any fault develop in it, the fault will be corrected, or the furni- ture is redeemable at full value

And almost before you could say . Jack Robinson" it was rushed from the freight cars to the floors of the August Furniture Sale. Frankly it was never intended for this sale, but to fill in the empty spaces in September. Now that it is here ahead of schedule and we must make room for it, we have hitched on the Blue Tags, and the prices are an average fourth less than we ever in- tended they should be-.
 This is an opportunity to begin re- construction of your home. We say it is the time to begin now, because you may avail yourself of the savings in the August Sale, and have deliveries made in the fall, if you choose.
 Perhaps the furnishings of your home are not in harmony. If you have gone over the situation, and if this is your discovery, and if you feel over whelmed with the impossibility of entire refurnishings begin with one piece of furniture at time.

What Epery Wo- man Should Know

Blankets are measured by quarters. For instance, a 10-4 blanket is supposed to be ? 1-2a yards in length. This, how ever, is the size before it Is. shrunk. A 10-4 blanket in reality measures 60x80 inches, and fits a single bed. A 11-4 blanket in reality measures 72xS2 inches and fits a double bed. A 1924 blanket measures 7Sx86 inches in reality and fits an extra large double bed. Blankets that are skimpy in size and will not conform to these measurements are not of fered for sale in this store.

Sale of Wool Goods
 Short Lengths

Several hundred pieces of Woolen Goods in lengths of 1 3-4 10 7 yards will be re- tailed out tomorrow at an av- craze third less than regular prices.
 This sale is not the result of any buying genius. There is nothing philanthropic in cutting the prices low. Merely the result of a condition. Not imperfect undesirable goods but the lengths that have remained on the bolt in the final analysis.
 We do not see why women should not be eager to take advantage of this sale. There are lengths say, of } 1-2 yards ample for making a skirt or waist. There lengths of 4, ,, and yards, the most beautiful Panamas, Serges, Henriettas and Plaids, Wool Taffetas Whipcords, Mohairs and Broadcoths that will make ideal school dresses for children beautiful tailored suits and one piece woolen dresses Although these woolens were originally up to $50 yard, the prices that will prevail tomorrow range from 60c to 200 per yard These pieces of wool goods are pinned up, length and price carefully ticketed on and will not be subject to usual rule of exchange and return
