we are doing what the American
men did way back in 10, when
they threw the English tea into
the Boston harbor and rebelled
against English rule.
Tell them, too, that we are
fighting the same battle that was
fought out in the American civil
war-the question of slavery.
Only our battle is the battle Of
white slavery, not the battle of

This is what Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst said to me when l

DO NOT NEGLECT THE HALL

Too many people are too willing to let the hall of the house take care of itself the idea of appropriate fur nishings. for it receives but scant attention which is wrong of course since of all places the hall should ex- tend a warm and courteous welcome.
 Our new stocks reveal a wealth of pleasing surprises in furniture of this descrip- ton. A few minutes of your time will perhaps decide the perplexing question of just what is needed to impart an air of greater hospitality to the entrance hall of your home. .

VICTORY CLAIMED

After Others Had Tried and Failed
He Restores Them to the Best

1t is most common thing to see
and hear people now talk about the
good results and cures given them by
DR.. Wells. They go to him because
he is specialist and treats difficult
and stubborn diseases, and many
where doctors say an operation is the
only thing that can cure; but how
many there are that are sorry time
and time again they had that opera
ton, because it left them worse than
they were in the first place, and in a
condition they may never be cured.
How dangerous is the knife, il not in
the hands of good, conscientious
doctor. Hundreds of these cases they
SAY must be operated upon are cured
by DR.. Wells for a small, nominal fee,
and no risk to life Grateful people
by the score are loud in their praise
OF his wonderful work His patients
are from all the surrounding states
They come from far and near, for

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 10.--A
revolutionary plot organized by chill
dren has been discovered, 1t was de-
clared by the police today when they
arrested more than sixty boys and
girls, pupils in secondary schools.
The officials say the plot was directed
against Minister Of Education CASIO,
whose administration has been bitter
ly criticised and whose reactionary
measures against the universities
have caused many of Russia's leading
instructors to resign.
Most of the children under arrest
are from middle class working famil-
les and the police are energetically
raiding workingmen's homes and in.
terrogating entire families. regardless
of age or sex. A school adjoining the
minister's residence was emptied and
thoroughly searched for explosives.

The first game of the senior basket

though the game had not been adver-
tised there were several enthusiastic
rooters on the side lines. Team No.

game of what promises TO be the
fastest league ever witnessed on local
floors. With all four captains being
members of the big Y team, the riv-
airy is keen.
In last nights game the playing on
both sides was good, both shooting
and guarding. Captain Merriam seem

seemed that he was saving up one"
for after the game was tied at the
close and an extra period had to be
played, he won the game with nice
clean "drop-in' from the 20-foot side
line.
Captain Porterfield played his usual
neat pulling game. caging four al
seemingly impossible angles. Leslie
Worthen OF team No. 8 while being
closely guarded by Worthen, Sr.. was
able to cage four one-kanded beau-
ties. It is seldom that father and son
