SHELLEY BAZAAR FRONT
BEING D0LLED UP

Cody has a real cowboy bazaar,
has always had me-, but the fact
is being made more noticeable by
the dressing up which the front of
this popular business house is re-
ceiving this week. The entire front
is being re-painted and a picture of
a cowboy riding a wild one is a big
part of the front emery. Dave
Shelley, Cowboy Outftter, is also
brought out in splendid contrast in
vivid coloring. Ellis Taylor is do
ing the work.
The Shelley shop has one of the
finest stocks of saddles and cowboy
outfttings in the west. a stock
which is mostly the handiwork of
the proprietor, Dave Shelley, who
ranks as n OF the top-notch lea
Their workers in the country. His
shop is an interesting one to visit
and a place where just the proper
outfit can be secured by the cowboy
or cowgirl.
Launching into business during
the days when everything was
brought in by freight teams, and
punching cattle was the principal
occupation of those residing in this
section, Mr. Shelley did a large bus
mess in saddles, harness and re-
pair work. With the passing of
the stage coach and freight teaming
he had to enlarge his business to
take in something for which there
was a greater demand. With this
in mind he has become the agent
for a fine line of cowboy hats, boots
and leather vests and coats. In
leather coats and vests Mr.. Shelley
has something entirely different
from anything handled in Cody.
These garments are made in either
the plain or fancy styles. Some are
beautifully beaded and present a de-
lightful appearance. Mr.. Shelley
with the assistance of his wife cuts
the coats from leather pelts and
does all the tailoring work here at
home. The fancy coats are then
sent to the reservation where he
has made arrangements for the
beaded work. The article has a
unique value inasmuch as it is gen
uine Indian beading and still is a
home product.

Rochester, Minnesota, where he en-
tered the Mayo clinic for a rigid
medical examination. MI. Newell

season, Fay Hiscock, Cody's pioneer
picture man" dropped in on his
friends on Wednesday of last week
and is getting acquainted again aft
er an absence during the winter
months. Mr.. Hiscock's official home
is near Douglas, Wyoming, where
he has ranch property, out unoffi-
cially it's Cody. Fay expects to be
here throughout the summer and as
usual will get some pictures of the
Stampede.

She would have been Mortified at the
thought of walking a mile, and she
swooned at the sight of drop of blood.
Can you imagine the men of today
bothering with that type of girl! Not

beaux in these days is the husky,
hearty. healthy girl, who can play
golf all day and dance all night, and
still be going strong, and who is just
about as liable to faint at the sight
of a wound as a butcher is.
In other days the helpless, clinging-
vine type was, the admired of men. The
woman who sat down and wrung her
to support. 1t was considered a proof
of feminine tenderness for female
to be able to turn on the hydrant and
flood the place with tears.

pearly drops that flow from the eyes
of the human geyser now. They take

Ignorance was held to- be charm
of peculiar fascination in the old
fashioned girl. A woman was sup
posed to be particularly appealing if
she didn't know who was president
and never read a newspaper. and
didn't have enough sense to handle
money, or buy a railroad ticket, or
take care of herself. Men are bored
toJdeath now with a woman who
can't keepup her end of the CONVEX
sation and they consider the girl
burden who has to be taken care of
as if she were sick baby.
You see there are millions of girls in

to take care of herself financially. and
