manufacturing footgear of every
kind has advanced in price to such
an extent that American manufac-
turers must call upon all consum-
ers to help bear the cost.
This is the consensus of opin-
ion of several officials of the largest
shoe manufacturers in St. Louis.

that competition among American
shoe manufacturers is. and always

business on small margin of prof

The increase in the cost of ma

Shoe company TO predict that from
now on general increases may be ex-
peeted in the retail cost of shoes.

turer have gone up from 5 to 20

of shoes, he said. The rise in price,
he predicted, will be gradual

Modern science has discovered a

OUR PRESIDENT.

Hurrah. for our dear President,
The bravest of the brave;
He's Drawing every danger
Our country's peace to save.
On every hand are enemies
And demagogues galore;
Who on him excavations
And maledictions pour.
But he pursues without halt
The tenor of his way;
And in the face of every storm
Looks TO a brighter day.
The storms are beating round his
head
On face as we'll as back;
But let them try as hard as fate
He keeps right on his track.
He's pleading with his countrymen
To do the thing that's wise;
Prepare themselves for anything
That ever may arise.
The masses of the people
Are with him good and strong;
They want TO be in readiness
To combat every wrong.
He's kept us out of Mexico
In spite of jingoes bold;
Who would have had us fight them
For sake OF their poor gold.
He strikes happy medium
Between the two extremes;
The pacifists and fighters
And all such morbid dreams.
So let's stay with the President,
And not give up the ship;
II anyone jumps on us
Let's be prepared 70 whip.
