Not Only Can We Giue You

the choicest styles and the best workmanship,
but the lowest possible prices as well. With us
the buying and selling of shoes is not, in trade
parlance, matter of quick turnover Our
contracts are placed, in many cases, nearly a
year in advance of date of delivery: Consequent
ly we are now selling shoes which were con-
tracted for at 1916 prices at retail figures, which
represent in great many Of cases less than pres
ent wholesale prices.

There Are Thousands of Pairs

of shoes in our stores in staple styles and feathers
which have not been advanced one cent in selling
price, nor will they, although we could realize a
substantial profit if they were sold at present
market figures. They were purchased at a time
when prices were nearer normal and our protec-
ton policy gives our patrons the benefit. To take
advantage of market fluctuations is not and
never will be part of the BERBERICH policy.
Neither have we ever allowed qualities to suffer
in order to sell down to price.

Don't Be Alarmed

by the present conditions, for they are unavoid-
able coming directly result of the war. Bear
in mind, however, that the only safe buying pol

BERBERICbi policy and be certain of fair treat
ment, be conditions what they may.

and never before has the wisdom of
this policy proven more emphatic than
at the present time.

For half-a-century the HOUSE OF BER-
BERICH has been serving the Washington pub
lie, building up an organization representing
high state of efficiency. Back of its selling force
is tremendous buying power, power that
enables it to deal directly with the largest foot
wear manufacturers in the land. Such force
necessarily commands respect and obtains for
itself the most advantageous terms.

NEVER TAKE PEPSIN
FOR a WEAK DIGESTION

Like most sufferers from Door
digestion, fermentation, sour stom-
ach, gas, acidity, catarrh of the
stomach, bloating, distress after
eating or other stomach disorders.
you doubtless think you must dose
yourself with soda-mint tablets,
pepsin or other digestive drugs
that give temporary relief but
weaken the stomach still further.
Or else that you must endure the
misery of milk and nursery diet.
But II You will form the pleasant
habit of slipping a glass of water
containing Just a teaspoonful OF
pure bisurated magnesia with each
meal YOU will soon find your d.
gestion so much strengthened that
you can eat what you like without
the slightest distress. Bisuratod
magnesia is not a laxative and
comes only in powder and tablets
never as liquid or milk. 1t is
sold by druggists everywhere.

AUTOCRACIES
MUST PERISH

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-An-
swering the pope, the United
States and her allies will declare
that the only peace possible will
be one with autocracy banished.
That Interpretation was placed
by experts today upon whitening
blast from Secretary Redfield in
retort to pacifist's letter. 1t
squared with utterances of the
past week by : Premier Lloyd
George and Sir Robert Cecil in
England.
Redfield's letter was the first
formal utterance on the subject
Of peace by a cabinet member
since the pope's peace proposals
was received.
1t is assumed that Redfield
knows President Wilson's mind,
In that case his letter would in
dictate that the president will re-
peat even more strongly than
heretofore his views on German
autocracy, ruthlessness and in
trigue.
or the two opposing ideals in
the world-autocracy and democ-
racy-one must go down before
the other. Redfield declared.
America will wage her war until
democracy is triumphant.

FIRES GO
BEYOND
CONTROL
tUnited Press Lensed wire.p

PORTLAND, Or, Aug. 23. -
Between 5000 and 10000 men
today are fighting forest fires in
Washington, Western Montana,
Idaho and Oregon. 1t is impossi-
BILE now to estimate the damage.
Over two score of fires are be-
yond control. Hood River report
ed today that smoke hung over the
city like great fog and that 1t
was impossible to see the sun.
Miners and citizens at Wallace,
Idaho, fought fire with fire all
night in an effort to save the city.
A $4,000 saw mill near Sheri-
dan, Ore, and two million feet of
logs in the mill yards were de-
stroyed by fire yesterday.
The fires on Yamhill county
land which was selected for Bel
gian colonization were reported
practically under control today,
but elsewhere the fires are defy
ing the men who are trying to
check them.
The situation is probably the
most serious in western Montana
and Idaho panhandle.

Father Shackles Starving
Lad In Cellar, Beats Him
Especial to The TinIes.)

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-Anton
Pacut originated an extraordinary
way for furnishing runaway sons,
according to admissions which
police say he made.
He built in his cellar, at 2440
Clybourn-av., a permanent cell
four feet long, three feet wide and
five feet high, of solid board, with
a tight-fitting door. Then, the
police declare, he forged hand
cuffs for ankles and wrists, and
staples to chain the boy to the
wall.
While police were taking An
ton to jail following the discovery
in the cell of Frank Pacut, his
11-year-old son, who had stood
10 hours in his chains, without
food or water, Anton told the Of
ficers the system did not work.
"He is still bum and a thief,
he said.
The boy was so weak he could
hardly walk. IL have to beg and
steal" he said, TO get enough to
eat. My father starved me. l
have hunted in neighbors' garbage
cans.
HE has chained Emil and An
ton in the cell, too" Emil and
Anton are and z, respectively.
And he has beaten Baby Fred,
who is 2, with the nine-tongued
whip he made to peat me-"
Franks last Imprisonment in
the cell followed an absence of
two weeks, to get away from the
cruelties at home.

.SUPERFLUOUS HAIR
WHY II INCREASES

1t has been proven by the Worlds
greatest authorities that so-called
hair removers stimulate and increase
hair growth after each removal. be-
cause they only remove hair from the
surface of the skim just like razor.
The only common-sense way to re-
move hair is to attack it under
skin. DeMiracle the original SAN
itary liquid, operates on this prin.
ciple. 1t alone contains certain in
gradients which give it the power to
rob hair of its vitality. 1t does
ahis by absorption.
DeMiracle works equally well for
removing hair from face, neck,
nrms, underarms or limbs to pre-
vent 1t from showing through stock
ings.
Insist on the genuine DeMiracle.

UNCOVER
SCANDAL
in ARMY
by HENRY WOOD.
!. i. Staff Correspondent,

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES,
July 30.-(By Mail. "A scandal
in the German army is revealed in
official documents taken from re-
Gently captured prisoners, show
ing that the occasional munition
crises and shortages from which
Germany is known to suffer are
In part due to the munitions
wasted and stolen and demonstrat-
ing the seriousness of the metal
shortage which Germany is at all
times facing.
In order that not single ounce
of metal be wasted, premiums
were offered by the minister of
war to the soldiers for returning
all used cartridges, shells and bits
of metal with which every bat
tlefield is covered.
The premiums offered were so
attractive that the soldiers hit
upon the idea of taking the shells,
cartridges and munitions served
them, mutilating or otherwise de-
stroying them and then return
ing the broken bits as SO much
metal picked up in the trenches
and on the battlefields.
Full details of the graft and
scandal are contained in an off,
cial circular of the German min
lister of war, which reads as fol-
lows:
ut has come to the knowledge
of the ministry of war that on
many occasions the military au-
thorities charged with the sup
plying of munitions have not de-
Hvered integrally to the respect
i've units the quantities received
at the shipping depot, but have
had recourse to various expedi-
ents in order to assure for them
selves the premium offered for
the salvage of munitions.
"(a) Cases of cartridges have
been broken open, the balls torn
out, the powder burned and the
empty cartridges returned as hav-
ing been found and burned by the
troops.
cob The bands about certain
projectiles, that were perfectly
disable, have been torn off, the
fuses unscrewed, the shell thrown
away. and the copper bands and
fuses returned as having been
found by the troops.
"(c) Other projectiles thoro,
ly intact have been thrown away
in order to permit accomplices to
find them and return them for the
recompense given for the salvage
of munitions"
COPIES of this circular furnish
ed to troops at the front must be

not obeyed a number of these cir
culars have come into the hands
