What You Want for Your Christmas
We determined at the outset to have the
biggest and best stock of toys in the vest

ern part of this COun-
try, and to give the
best values.
Our plans were carried out by
carefully making purchases much
earlier than usual and by giving
over twice as much space to Toy
land in our store than formerly.
AS a result of our energetic
work early in the season we have
more new toys than were ever be-
fore seen in this store-and there
is no shortage OF either foreign
made or domestic-ms6e toys here.
With our stocks, space and our
forces increased and improved and
safeties and convenjences above
any other store in the west, we are
going for and expect to establish
a new high record in good work.

as public men go. Nobody has ever
questioned that about him, but here
is little true story which proves IT.
When Senator Burton left New York
last March to visit the South Amert-
can countries to study their govern
ments and trade relations with this
country. it had Just dawned on him
for the first time that he was OF
presidential caliber. least ways thare

firmly believed that he was. Think
of that as the rarest example of self

had not friends talked with him zery
earnestly and got him to sail away
without making any comment on the
subject of the nomination. During
his absence they were not idle, and
senator Burton returned to find a
boom of decent size and in a fairly
healthy condition.
There is quite an extensive list of
Republican candidates, reluctant
and otherwise. But when an expert

of the prospective candidates. NO
candidate has anything here tnat
could be classed as Headquarters.
There is lone scribe with a type
writer who has been sending stories
out for q few weeks. and some letters
have been sent into Ohio as "feelers'
by the friends of Burton. The most
energetic efforts have been made In
working up Fairbanks boom, but
from all reports the workers have not

Therefore, the keen interest in the

the few "stayers'' in the convention
there is widespread curiosity to
know what is going to follow in the

PETII'ION PLEDGES
10 BE CIRCULATED
By Prohibition State Committee
in Efford to Keep on
Ballots.

For the purpose Of devising ways
and means to keep the Prohibition
party of West virgisca from being
dropped from the election ballots
through the operation of the new
state primary election law, special
meeting of the party's state execu-
tive committee was held Thursday at
the Parsons hotel in this city.
1.-THE Prohibition party" declared
the Rev. J. w. Bedford. of Parsons,
the state chairman, is determined
not only to survive but TO press Its
work harder than ever"
Must Ignore Primaries.
The committee decided to circulate
among members of the party pledges
not to take part in primaries OF other
parties and to sign petitions for nom
inees so as to get their names on the
ballots. The new primary law denies
places on, the election ballots to candl-
dates of a party that had not at the
last election polled at least five per
cent of the total vote, except the can
didates for presidential electors and
for judgeships. In most cases this
knocks the party of the ballot un-
less the petition method is used.
Efforts in the next campaign, by or
der of the committee, will be concen-
trated upon candidates for Congress
and the state legislature. although 1t
Is purposed to have county and tsate
tickets in the field. provided this can
be done by the petition method.
The committee arranged to have the
Rev. G. w. Ogden, of Beckley, do field
work continuously for the party from
the present time until the end of the
next campaign. He will go to Wetzel
county at once and work in behalf
of the party there.

Arrangements were made to hold a
general state conference of party
members and workers early in No
vember in C1arksburg in connection
with regular meeting OF the state
committee The date of this gather
ing will be announced later by the

IN addition to the Rev. Mr.. Bedford
the following members of the execu-
tive committee came here for the
meeting: J. e. Cunningham, secre-
tary and treasurer, Of Pennsboro; u.

Some of Them Send Brides

TT is not unusual for an actress to be
bribed by the amateur playwrights.
Every once in awhile receive box of
candy or flowers with a play manuscript
Once when l was playing in Western
town in captain Jinks," I received a
bulky play by messenger. A note with
the manuscript said that if would accept
it, and play the leading role, the author
would agree to pay me out of his own
pocket a bonus of fifteen dollars week.
On another occasion, when playing in
New England in "Alice-Sit-by- the-Fire,'
there was delivered to me manuscript
together with a beautiful turkey. A note
attached to the turkeys foot read, II will
bring this play of mine to your attention
by fair means or fowl"
These are only few of my expert
ences with young playwrights. OF one
thing you may be sure,-the amateur
dramatist is the hardest part of an ac-
tress's job.
