Warm and handsome wool blanket-$5

These blankets are pure warm fleecy wool, with ex- ception of the warp. That is the structure upon which the filling is built. It is of cot ton, is even stronger than wool, does not take away one mite of warmth,-and makes it possible to sell so good a blanket at $5.
 The wool filling makes a soft grateful cushion that is guaranteed of warmth. It is not heavy but light: the blankets weigh only about } pounds. They'll not tire a sleeper-but they will. warm and refresh that sleeper.

TO DO FOR OTHERS
81 often wonder what it is, Mar
gie," said Paula, that makes a girl
fall in love.
'HavelOck Ellis states what in a
man appeals to one girl does not ap-
peal to another, and adds what in him
appeals to woman at one age might
not appeal to her at another time in
her life.
Sometimes I think, Margie, no
more flattering compliment can be
paid woman than the one so often
told by men of the world to unso-
phisticated girls: You are an angel,
to whose height am going to climb
and so on. This, my dear Margie, is
a theory most men have some time
in their lives, but after marriage I
have found most of them want the
angel to become very much of
woman.
81 keep wondering if it was vanity
or stUbbOrnness that kept me from
accepting the clean devotion offered
by JEFF PerrygTeen at that time.
ct would have been different if I
had been much in love with my work
and had wanted or believed that
could make a name for myself as an
actress, but even at that time I had
no false ideas on the subject of my
dramatic talent. I suspected, what I
learned later to be true, that my
great success in Elga was due to the
fact that I was telling Earnest Law
ton nightly what really felt in my
own heart.
about this time I became better
acquainted with Ruth Dayton. She
was much older than l and a splendid
actress. She had one of the saddest
faces I ever saw.

French Greek Home Coming.


BUCKHANNON, July s. - The
plans and program for the great
hame coming at French Greek are ma
turing rapidly, and already the peo-
pie are assured that on August 4-6,
the community will witness the larg-
est assemblage ever gathered here.
A definite program will be published
later, but at present it can be stat
ed that the people will assemble at
the grove near the Presbyterian
church soon after noon on Friday,
the 4th. After an address and an
hour or two spent in meeting old
friends and getting acquainted with
new ones, several athletic contests
between representatives Of the
Young, Gould, Phillips and other
pioneer families will take place. The
day following will be devoted to a
general good time, with good music
and numerous addresses by some Of
the foremost speakers in the state
and country. On Sunday, the sixth
a celebration Of the one hundredth
anniversary of the coming to this
community of the first Christian
minister, the Rev. Asa Brooks, will
take place. Delightful programs for
the evenings are being arranged for.
Story telling, illustrated lectures, a
corn roast, spelling bee, etc, will be
some of the features.
The following are some of the per-
sons who have expressed deter
mination to be present: DR.. S. Hall
Young, Dr.. Robert A. Armstrong, DR..
Thomas E. Hodges, Rev. L. B. Moore,
Mrs. Lydia Gould, Mrs. Nellie Silcott
Snyder, Rev. Frank B. Lewellyn'
Others who are considering coming
are DR.. S. Edward Young, the Rev.
w. o. Phillips, Rev, L. A. Lindemuth,
Ex-Governor A. B. Fleming, etc.
The home and dinner baskets OF
the entire community will he open
to visitors, as a matter of course, but
the hospitality of the people will be
taxed to the utmost, and all residents
of Upshur county who attend the
meetings should furnish their own
provisions and arrange in due time
for lodging Provisions will be for
sale on the ground, so that local
families who do not care to bring
dinner baskets will not need to go
hungry.
The present is a good time to say
that the sole purpose Of the meet
ings is the enjoyment and uDlift OF
the people and that no money or
vote-getting propaganda for the bene-
fit of any individual, institution nor
cause, however worthy, will have the
sanction of the committee in charge
of the program.
