This statement is made with due knowledge
and due modesty. It is the truth, as any one may
see by personally visiting here and elsewhere.
The writer after seeing the Grand Canyon
said he would nevernore use the superlative in
advertising. But he feels so strongly about this
August Furniture Sale that he cannot help call
ing it what it is-GREATEST OF ALL.
Visitors call it greatest" Greatest in extent
and volume of the furniture, which covers three
block-long floors. Greatest in variety, extending
from the finest period furniture that is made,
costing several thousand dollars for a suite,
down to the plainest, simplest and cheapest bu-
reau that is worth owning, for as little as SO.
Greatest in the artistry and simplicity of de-
signs, the good taste in decorations; the absence
of the tawdry, the garish, the commonplace.
Greatest in the high qualities of wood and cabi-
net work and the low prices marked on the Au-
gust tags.
This perhaps does not sound like a Wanna
maker announcement. 1t smacks a little of the
other kind, the exaggerated over-drawn state
ment. But many people have said that we are
too modest about this August Sale of Furniture,
that we understate its greatness, and that we do
" give a proper conception of its superlative
character and its enormous advantages to the
public
So we risk criticism and state the
FACTS as strongly and vehemently
as we can, knowing that they will
prove up" upon personal inspection
Of the furniture.
The selling is passing all former records.
which proves up not only the Sale itself but
the willingness of the people now to spend their
money in fixing up their homes-thus giving
work to more people, keeping more money
in motion, and bringing more.

Stateline, Utah, Oct. %, 1915.
Messrs. Buell. and Tyron are finish
ing up the gathering of their crops.
preparatory to resuming work on the
Jumbo tunnel.
Mr.. and Mrs. C. E. Peak of Hanob-
lin Valley, were Stateline visitors a
few days ago. Mr.. Peak came in to
inspect the Sidewinder group of
mines. All the harm we wish Mr..
Peak is that he will strike mint
OF gold, for Mr.. Peak has always been
one OF Stateline's most ardent boost
ers.
George Tryon has just finished
packing down nice little shipment of
ore from the Rocky Mountain mine,
where free gold seems to be very plen-
tiful, and as the ore has to be packed
down on horses, it is termed, "The
Mine of the Clouds"
" hhSPdCh,s SuOckman OF
Violet Springs, is here looking after
his stock interests, and reports that
range cattle are looking fine, despite
the long drought, which Mr.. Films
pach predicts is a fore runner of a
hard winter.
Mr.. Burgess, also Hamblin Valley
farmer, came in last evening feeling
under the weather, but reports this
morning are to the effect that the old
gentleman is feeling much better. He
is stopping at the home of Mr.. Buehl.
Mr.. August Satire and family have
just moved away from the Ophir mine
where Mr.. Satire has been leasing dur
ing the past summer. He has gone
to look after his ranching interests
In the Escalante valley. We always
like to see good citizen return.
Messrs. Simkins and Beshard of En-
terprise are hauling ore down from
the Ophir mine for shipment to the
Salt Lake smelters, at the rate of
about three tons per day. High grade
ore, they say.
Mr.. Drake is just over from Gold
Springs, where he has been working
on his own property, which he has
bonded to some Eastern capitalists.
and from all accounts the property is
looking fine. Although Mr.. Drake Is
very reticent about his business af-
fairs, it is limited that if the present
showing keeps up there will be nice
little mill in operation some time next
April.
c. w. O'Grain, who owns the Atch-
ison Creek ranch, is busy hauling in
his potato crop. Mr. O'Grain boasts
that he will take his hat off to no man
when it comes to raising potatoes, as
he frequently digs up spuds on his
land weighing from five TO six pounds
apiece.

WARNS AGAINST HIGH HEELS

Hold in Femlninity.

An eminent authority Of the medical
profession has again urged upon his
brother physicians the Importance of
impressing upon the public the need
of properly caring for the feet, not
only so far as having shoes construct
ed correctly, but also in urging every
n to take a proper amount of foot

Journal of the American Medical As.
ISOLATION in quoting Ritschl, are par
%ticularly dangerous and lead to In
Vulnerable bodily Ills"
The strength and well being OF the
entire body depend in a large meas
ure on the condition of the feet, and
their development in children should
be watched with special care to avert
Injurious influences.
High heels, Doctor Ritschl declares,
affect injuriously not only the foot
itself, but throw the whole weight
bearing mechanism more or less out Of
gear. BY extending a moderately high
heel backward many muscular trou-
bles are automatically cured.
