$29.5O suits

In our opinion the prettiest suits here at 29.50 are those of the new Oxford cloth, and following them in close competition are other models which may appeal to you even more, made of Poire twill, gabardine and soft, serv- iceable serges. In quite few instances the 29.50 suits are in plain tailored models-plain almost to mannishness with long dignified coats, silk cord bindings and peau de cygne things

$25 suits

At this extremely popular price we have suits of wool faille, serge, gab- erdine and other standard, service able fabrics. Their designers ac- cepted the popular vogues and trim med them with plush collars and cuffs. The coats are lined with peau de cygne and the skirts are practical models, full flaring, with pockets and broad graceful belts. Choose a 25.00 suit in black or navy or beet root or the very popular browns.

' S35 suits

These offer a choice that is indeed profuse. Many novelty suits lend color to the assortment, while dozens of smart plain tailored mod els contribute stability. But return ing to the novelty suits, most inter esting among them are sport suits. These contrast themselves readily from the plain tailored models by rackish lines created by their short coats, as we'll as by the novel stripes and plaids of their fabrics.

 Aladdin quality has higher standard higher than the housewife has ever be- fore found in aluminium utensils The Aladdin trademark on a utensil means that 1t was built to last, to look we'll and to work with.
 Aladdin utensils are gracefully formed They are evenly proportioned-and in perfect balance.
 Aladdin utensils are practical Most of them were designed by women for women and have practical features too numerous to mention. Here are just a few of the prac- tical refinements which you will find on Aladdin ware-lips on sauce pans that are perfectly shaped for pouring, rounded handles that fit easily in the hands, exact capacity, measured by the government standard, rivets sunk flush with the walls of the vessels so food cannot lodge in them These are only few of the prac- tical features, but they illustrate what we mean when we say that every Aladdin utensil is practical utensil

Walram line Of the House of Nassau
and was born June IA, 1894. She was
only Is years old when she assembled
the throne, succeeding her father,
Grand Duke William, who died in

which began almost Immediately after
Grand Duke William succeeded to the
throne in 1905 The latter, however,
did not come to live in his dominions
until six years later, as he was too i'll
to be removed from his castle of Ho-
jenberg in upper Bavaria. There he
remained. his departure for Luxem-
bourg being put off from year to year
in the vain hope that there might be
an Improvement in his condition. He
was a hopeless paralytic and his con-
dition was all the more pitiable be-
cause of his enormous girth. In the
latter part of 1911 he was removed
in order that he might die among his
people. When he died in the follow

people of Luxembourg that his Oldest

Grand Duchess Marie
Adelaide of Luxembourg


Today is the birthday of Grand
Duchess Marie Adelaide Of Luxem-
bourg, the small prdncipaity which
was invaded by the Germans at the
outbreak of the great war and which
since that time has not known many
happy moments. True, there has been
no devastation in Luxembourg such
as has taken place in Belgium and
northern France but the reason for
this is that the Luxembourgers sub
mitted. They couldn't very well do
anything else. seeing that their army
consisted, at the most, of few hun
dred men. But IL the youthful Grand
Duchess has a small Kingdom, this
cannot be said of her name, It's q
great big one and goes as follows:
