KNEW HOW TO MAKE IT FIT
BacleWoodsman Little Troubled b, Fact That Cap He Purchased
 Was Too Small.

Early in the autumn a man from the backwoods wandered into Syracuse gents furnishing store. Here the shiny winter caps caught his eye.
 After gazing at these long time he said:
 .How much you want for one O. them caps?"
 "One dollar" rejoined the clerk. 'aTry this one on, sir"
 But this proved to be size or so too small, sitting upon the woodchop- per's head like a peanut on barrel. 7 Here's y'r dollar, mister. I'll take this cap."
 ''But the caps too small" declared the amazed clerk, pushing back the proffered dollar. 'Wait till you try
 'Oh, I'll fix this so's it'll it," was the backwoodsman's final exchange be- fore starting off with his purchase. "When git home all I'll have to do is to slit its back up with knife, lace 1t with a shoestring, and eyerything'll be all hunkydory !"-Rehoboth Sunday Herald.

Wear; Long Enough to Cover the Boot Tops.

The season Is marked by the revival of the separate skirt for dressy wear. Some novel forms of drapery and looped panels promise to play prom inent part in skirts. Lines of distinc- tion characterize the models of recent importance. and the soft silks and satins lend themselves gracefully to the voluminous drapery.
 The newest skirts are long enough to cover the boot tops and quite wide enough for comfort. The widths at the bottom will vary from a yard and a quarter to a yard and three-quar- ters, with all widths between. Silk and satin models are inclined to be bit wider.
 One smart skirt interpreting the vogue was shown in supple black satin and pale gray crepe. It was draped low about the hips. but in great cas-

BoscHEE's SYRUP.

A cold is probably the most com. mon of all disorders and when neglect
 ed is apt to be most dangerous. Sta- tistics show that more than three times as many people died from in- fuenza last year, as were killed in the greatest war the world has ever known. For the last f1fty-three years Boschee's Syrup has been used for coughs, bronchitis, colds, throat ir- ritation and especially lung troubles. 1t gives the patient good nights rest, free from coughing, with easy expectoration in the morning. Made in America and used in the homes of thousands of families all Ovcr the civilized world. Sold Adv.

You had father and mother, and you grant that each of them had two parents, thus declaring that you had four grandparents. Then keep on go- ing backward.

THE APPROACHING ELECTION.

Before another issue of the Echo
reaches our readers the National
Election will have taken place and
therefore it may be proper to say a
few words at this time as to the
election.
The Echo is an Independent news
paper and does not espousc the cause
Of any particular party. That does
not mean, however, that we have no
IDEAS or political preference
Our idea of government is one that
interferes as little as possible with
Individual liberty and levies the low
est possible tax compatible with safe
ty to life and property. We must
have a system of protection of life
and to guarantee us the right to hold
property unmolested, and keep the
family inviolate; a medium of ex-
change is necessary and schools and
highways must be maintained; the
right to engage in religious worship
must not be abridged; and there are
a few other functions of law that may
possibly be preached with propriety
We have no patience with those
