GERMAN AGENTS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE FALSE REPORTS.
There had unqucstionably been
growing up between The peoples OF
the two countries a feeling OF suspi-
cion, which, II unchecked, promised
to develop u serious situation. Ru-
mors and reports Of improper lntcn-
lions were increasing and were more
and more believed,
THE attitude Of oonstralnt and
doubt thus created was fostered and
encouraged by the campaign Of false
hood, which for a LONG time had been
adroltly and secretly carried on by
Germans, whoae government, as a
part OF its foreign policy, desired
especially TO so ALLEVIATE this country
and Japan that il would be at the
chosen time no difficult task TO cause
a rupture OF their good relations"

These Are the O
Fashionable Furs
uOmen hare decided

Fox-the most popular today.
Skunk-a near second in favor.
Beaver-we have sold more this season than in the past
three years.
Wolf, Of the finer sort-a good substitute for fox, costs
less, wears better.
Lynx-wears extremely well for such a soft fur.
Mink is decidedly in favor, probably because it looks q
great deal like the very fashionable Hudson Bay sable.
American women are making their own fashions today.
These are the furs they want-and these furs are here in wide
variety of shape, size and price. Wanamaker furs are rea-
sonably priced and plainly labeled with their true names.
