Music.
There is a singular appropriate
ness in the combination. A piano
is the best of Christmas gifts. If
you doubt it, ask your wife or
daughter. I’ts better than a seal
skin sacque. It lasts longer and
doesn’t go out ot style. Music is al
ways fresh and always has been.
You can make the present expensive
or inexpensive, just as you choose.
We can give you a good piano for a
very little money—a more elaborate
instrument for more. You can pay
cash for it, or take it on the install
ments on your own terms.
A nice organ cheap and on easy
payments. Come in and see how
cheap you can get one before you

THE LIBERTY CAP. W
IU Origin and Significance and Those Wlm
i Have Worn It.
The liberty cap, that bag shaped
headgear so often seen on the head of
the Goddess of Liberty, and which sur
mounts the national colors on nearly
all of our silver coins, owes its origin
to tho Roman empire, where it was
given to slaves as a sign of their manu
mission. The principal significance of
the liberty cap to the American mind
is not, however, its Roman origin, but
rather its use as the official cap of the
successive doges of republican Venice—
that “model of the most stable govern
ment ever framed by man.” In the
doge’s palace at Venice there is a gal
lery full of portraits of the men who
ruled tho republic for 700 years, and the
conspicuous place occupied by the liber
ty cap in these portraits shows its im
portance as a national symbol of free
dom.
It rather heightens the significance of
this ancient symbol in the minds of
good Americans when it is remembered
that the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa
humbled himself before a wearer of the
liberty cap, and that Andrea Dandolo
wore it on the fourth crusade and at the
conquest of Constantinople. It occu
pied a place in the forefront of the ad
vancing hosts that in the early part of
the fifteenth century swept tho Dalma
tian towns and conquered the entire
from tho IWtuary of tho Po to the
island of Corfu.
While Columbus was discovering
America tho wearers of the liberty cap
were acquiring Zante and Cyprus, and
when the first half of the half starved
settlements on the Massachusetts coast
were battling for existence the republic
from which we borrowed our liberty
cap, having successfully resisted a
league of all the kings of Christendom,
was at the zenith of its glory.
The liberty cap is not as conspicuous
in our national signs and symbols as it
was in those of the rulers of the Adri
atic, yet in a modest way it immortalizes
the greatest republic of early times.—
Philadelphia Press.
A Curious Fi*ocession.
A curious procession once took place
at Brussels. One part of tho display
cdfisisted of a car containing an organ
played by a bear. There were no pipes
to the instrument, but a number of cats,
each inclosed in a narrow cage, an
swered the purpose. They were so ar
ranged that when the bear touched the
keys of the organ the cats’ tails were
pulled, and the result was anything but
choice music, to say nothing of the cru
elty thus practiced on the poor ani
mals.—Brussels Correspondent.

A Third Star.
Now the political equality clubs are

the star of'Wyoming. While they are
about it they may as well prepare a
third star for Kansas, to be added next
