Styles as Pictured— —Drawings from our stocks.
Many a suit order comes in late, these days when they are so hard to get, and are reduced in price before they
get here. This was the case with these 200 suits scheduled to reach us much earlier—and to sell for $19.75 and
$22.50. We have been needing them and were handicapped by the delay—
Therefore we reduced them on arrival and have marked them $15 each, thruout the lolt.
They are the good, plain tailored wool poplin and smart Velours, Checks; soft fine quality. Styles as pictured.
Smartly touched off with buttons, seal, plush bands and fur. Large collars. £5

SHE KNEW.
“How useless girls are today. I don’t
believe they know what needles arc
for.”
“How absurd of you, grandma,”
protested the girl. “They’re to make
the graphophone play.”—Detroit Free
Press.
WHAT HE’D LIKE TO SEE
“Would you like to see your wif
go into politics and be a boss"'”

politicians what a real boss is like.’

“You can’t tell; that boy of Todd’s
may be a congressman some day.”
“Indeed! Why, I thought he seemel

NOT HER FAULT.
Doris was rather backward in her
studies, and one day when her father
was inquiring into her standing at
school the little girl admitted that she
was the lowest in her class.
“Why, Doris, I am ashamed of you!"
exclaimed the mother; “why don’t you
study harder and try to get away from
the foot of your class!”
“It ain’t my fault,” replied Doris, in
tones of injured innocence, “the little
girl who has always been at the foot
has left school.”
TRYING BOTH METHODS
“Now, friends,” said the old Scotch
clergyman one Sunday* morning, “the
kirk is in sair need o’ siller, and, as we
have failed to get the money honestly,
we will nae hae to see what a bazaar
will dae for us.”
AN EASY ONE.
“What would you do if you had a
million!”
“Nothing.”
DEFINED.
“Pa,” said Little Willie, “what is the
unit rule*”
“Why—er—why, boy, it’s about the
same thing as prevails in this family,"
said Mr. Slithers. “You may have
noticed that whatever your Mother
says goes.”
Jones (in Prohibition town): wherej
can I get a drink!”

EUGENICS.
“Father, did you ever lie when you
were a boy!”
“No, my son,” said the father, who
evidently did not recall the past with
any distinctness.
“Nor Mother, either!” persisted the
young lawyer.
“No, Why!”
“Oh, because I don’t see how two
people who never told a lie could have
a boy who told as many as I did.
Where could I have got it from’”
NOT WORRYING.
Snappy young wife—To be frank
with you, if you were to die I should
certainly marry again.
Harassed husband—I’ve no object
ion. I’m not going to worry about the
troubles of a fellow I shall never know.

FORCE OF HABIT.

—Please save three in the G row left.
And be sure they’re fresh!

a small pupil, “can you tell me what

THE ETERNAL FEMININE.
“How old are you, little girl!” said
the street-car conductor genially.
“Now see here,” said the little girl,
“I’m paying full fare, so it isn’t nec
essary for you to ask any impertinent
questions.”
