Why not get the very most OUT
of every cent you spend for
hose? You can do it if you will
come to this store for your hos
iery. Why this store in particu-
lar? Because at McCoy's hois-
cry counter you will find none
but the very best numbers made
by nine different hosiery mills.
Our buyer got these various lines
together and selected the very
best numbers. Some makers
sold us 3 or a numbers, other fac
tories got out order for one num-
Der only and now these various
makes are all offered to you in
our hosiery department.
Make any comparison you wish
you will find no values equal to
what you get at McCoy's. If it's
25c or ten times a quarter you
pay for your hose, you will get
best values at this store. Buy
ing from nine factories also
means that you will find the
largest assortment in both col
ors and the various grades at our
hosiery counter.

ARTILLERY FORCE
HARD AT TRAINING

With the American Troops In
France, Sept. 1.-THE artillery
branch OF the American expedition
AIRY force is undergoing the most
rigorous training in big gun prac-
tice. No longer do the French on
GERS or gunmen actually serve the
cannon. American soldiers now COM
prise practically the entire gun
crews. French officers are used
only in an advisory capacity.
Modern artillery training is q
mass OF technical details. a 1aby-
rinth OF intricate studies, which re-
qulre intensive practice to master.
What the American artillery has
now and never had before is plenty
OF shells. II is easily conceived

CHRISTMAS SEALS TO

Between 1908 and 1915 the total

600 men of that age in Topeka who
must dig down in their jeans for So
either at the end or the beginning of
a summers vacation
The result of the collection of poll
tax this year will be a demand by
the taxpayers that the Shawnee county
legislators do more effectual work
in killing the poll tax bill than they
did last winter. That's the way the
politicians at the city hall look at it,
anyway
1t will be doubly hard for the leg
islators to get out from under" the
indignation of the taxpayers should
the bill remain a law two years hence
This, because effective work of the
Wyandotte legislators last winter re-
suited in Kansas City, Kan, getting
exempted from the tax
Just why Kansas City was exempted

of the first class were included will be

those districts Will have. to answer be-
