Chldren'S Shoes

One of our specialties. We have made a
study of shoes for little folks and tried many
different makes. The Buster Brown shoe
seems to meet all requirements for little folk;
strongly built, serviceable, good and roomy.
We can conscientiously recommend this
brand of children's shoes as meeting all re-
~quirements.
We also have a children's shoe, good and
serviceable, made up on the same last as the
Buster Brown, for a less price. This shoe
is proving highly satisfactory for the money.

Men and Women In World.

The total population of the world is
now estimated at 1,700,000,000. This
Is based upon the most recent census.
which all civilized countries now take,
with careful estimate of the number
of inhabitants of uncivilized lands.
The proportion of the sexes is known
for 1,038. 100000 Of these, the ratio be-
ing 1000 males to 900 females. The
ratio varies considerably in different
places. In Europe there are 1000 men
to 1927 women; In Africa, 1000 men
to 1.045 women; in America. 1000 men
to 964 women; in Asia, 1000 men to
961 women; in Australia, 1000 men to
937 women.
The highest proportion Of women Is
found in Uganda. where there are L.
467 to every 1000 men. The lowest
proportion Is in Alaska and the Malay
states. where there are. in the former,
391, and In the latter 3S9 women to
every 1000 men.

Turkish Soldiers Without Fexes.

For the first time. we read, the Turk
ish soldier is going to war without
the fez. Mahmud H., when he changed
the uniform of his army, tried to In
troduce the shake, but the opposition
of the soldiers was too strong for
him. The fez is certainly a poor COW
ering for men on active service; for
even the change of it's color to khaki
did not get over its feebleness as
protection against sun or bad weather
Hence the headshawl devised some
time ago to be worn twisted around
the fez. The Turks devotion to the
fez is clearly explained by Duckett
Ferriman: "The prejudice against the
hat rests on a religious basis. If the
ramaz form of prayer) is rightly per
formed the forehead must touch the
ground. The brim of hat or the peak
of a cap would prevent this"

Moslem Women In Future Life,

"Are women admitted to paradise?"
Is question that is often answered
In the negative. We find, however,
more than one passage in the Koran
that distinctly speaks of future life
in paradise for women. The most
often quoted is the one promising the
faithful that he will meet in paradise
besides his own earthly wives seventy
two houris-not an attractive pros
pect for the poor women. who have
suffered enough in this life from the
humiliations of polygamy But in
the fourth Sura we find the following
more definite statement: But whose
doeth good works, whether he be
male or female, and is a true believ-
er, they shall be admitted into para
disc. and shall not in the least be
unjustly dealt with Life In the
Moslem East, by Pierre Ponafdine.

APPEAL TO ALL INVENTORS
Story Of One Woman's Suffering That
Surely Should Stir Them to I'M
mediate Action.

Inventors are requested by suffer
ing telephone patrons to exercise their
ingenuity on a telephone booth slid
ing door that will really slide. Head
ing the petition is the name of a
woman who had a curious experience
in a drug store booth.
There are two booths in that store
side by side" she said. "They are
about as big as match boxes and are
open at the top, so when there is a
lull in street noises the conversation
In each can be heard in the other
One day, when listening to a long and
interesting communication from the
friend had called up, heard a man
in the adjoining box ask for the num-
Der of our own telephone uptown.
Presently he said, Cant you get
them, central?'
"Of course central couldn't get us,
for l learned afterward that not even
the maid was home, SO he rang off
and left the booth.
'T was most anxious to detain him
and learn his message. l insulted my
friend for life by saying, 4 can't lis
ten to any more now but I might
just as well have let her finish. for
couldn't get out of that booth,
pulled and tugged at the door, but it
wouldn't bulge. Finally drug clerk
let me out, but the man had got away
by that time, and don't know to this
day who he was or what he wanted
to tell us, Imagine having to go
through life with a mystery like that
unsolved, The telephone company
cannot equip their booths with NOV
able doors any too soon, think"

SHOWED SCENES OF CRIMES
Partisan Burglar Took Magistrate on
Tour and Pointed Out Residences
of His Victims.

A man named Rene Foerschler, aged
Twenty-Five, who is in the Sante
prison (Paris), awaiting trial on a
charge Of burglary, recently wrote to
M. Poncet, the magistrate In charge
of his case, confessing to 205 other
burglaries. The magistrate at first re-
fused to believe him, vhereupon the
prisoner offered to take him on a per-
sonally conducted tour of the scene Of
his exploits. The other morning,
therefore, M. Poncet, the prisoner and
two policemen set out in cab for q
drive round the streets of Paris. In
the course of the day Foerschler
pointed out thirty-two houses at which
he had committed burglaries. The fol-
lowing day the experiment was re-
peated, and the scenes of forty-two
other robberies were pointed out. The
two next days, also, the magistrate
resumed his task. Foerschler has q
wonderful memory. He pointed out
the different houses without hesitation
and even remembered little details,
as, for example, that such and such
house formerly had no carpet. He
affirms that in the course of his ca
reer he has stolen 900 watches, 1882
edrrings, 1872 silver plates, 80 gas fit
tings. 361 tie pins and SO gold
brooches.

Your Friends Prefer
Jewels To Any Other
Gift In The World.

For thousands of years-as far
back as historical records go-the uni
versal token of love and friendship
has been precious stones and Jewels.
alton, gems and jewels have held a
To every race in every age and gener-
charm more alluring than money,
land, merchandise or any other form
of wealth.
And with each generation, the SEN
timent attached to the giving and
owning of jewels grows.
Every achievement in life is asso-
tiated with gifts of beautiful jewels
a diminutive ring for the bay; brace
lets, and neck chains for birthday re-
membranes; at graduation, perhaps a
fine watch; diamond ring announces
the marriage engagement; and at the
wedding, the browning event of all,
a multitude of precious gems, stones
and jewels.
Search the gamut of human wants
and you will find no gift so acceptable
as jewelry. Good jewelry is herit-
age that is handed down from genera
ton to generation and an enduring re-
membrance of the giver.
When you wish to select jewelry for
your friends or relatives, come to this
store. You can not find more depend
able jewelry any place.
We appreciate your trade, and al
ways try to give you good value.
