FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY.
J *■ i Why ?
Because
They sell only the best bhues made, and one pair will
wear longer than two pairs bought from other houses who
keep cheap stuff.. Did you buy Shoes from us [ast winter?
If so, we ar? not talking to you, as no one could influence
you to buy from any one else; but this is to those who have
' • — o c
been buying ( shoddy Shoes
froift merchants who do not care
for any thing but the profits, and regardless of wear.
■-H? -j
Just ask your neighbor about our Winter Shoes and
they will tell you about them better than we can write. It
is poor economy to buy Shoes for winter that will not
serve you ten months or one ‘year, even if you can get
them for 15 cents a pair less. We are going to keep and
sell Shoes that wi!l give satisfaction to every one who buys
of us. We want to sell you and your family your winter
goods and will save you money sure. Youis,

V.'.aBiN'iTON, D. C-, Dec. 1.—[Special. J~
During the winter an effort la to bo maoe
to Induce congress to Increase the appro¬
priation for the life saving service. A MU
Is pending for that purpose. Under the
present law the life saving stations of the
United Staten are cloeed during tha months
of May, June, July and August, except
that the keepers continue to reside at the
stations as custodians of the property,
bat the stirfmen are not on duty, and the
keeper can do nothing by himself in cane
of a wreck. It to true there are not many
wrecks during the months named on any
of our coasts, but tn Hay and August
there are a few, and It Is contended the
stations should be kept open. Moreover, It
is only a simple act of Justice to the turf¬
men, who battle with the elements during
the fall, winter and spring that they be
kept on the payroll in summer. These
turfmen nre tbe moet efficient life severe in
the world. Even the British life saving
service has not as good a reoort^as equals ours.
The American surfmen have no for
courage, skill and fidelity. Tha story of
many of their feats is epic. If any men In
the government service deserve well of
tbe people, these are the}-. How mnch pay
doer, a surfman get for his eight months’
battling with cold, with breakers, with
storms" How much pay for taking his life
in his hands for the benefit of bis fellow
man? Only <700 a year! An ordinary
clerk in tbe departments at Washington,
who dawdle* over his work from 9 to * tn a
luxurious office, who has sick leaves, holi¬
days and SO days off for recreation every
twelvemonth, draws from <900 to <1,600
• year. The government should put its
lifesaving crews on duty during May and
August and Increase their pay proportion¬
ately. What is more, it should pension
these gallant life saver* after they reach a
certain age or whenever they are disabled
in tlie performance of dnty. Three is a
good prospect that the increased pay will
he allowed by this congress. It will be
without doubt If one iu a hundred of the
men, who admire the life saving service and
believe the Ufa saver take is worthy adequate
compensation will tbe trouble to send
marked copiea of this dispatch to their
senators and representatives.
Mew Appointments,
Now that the statesmen are back in
town for the winter, an increase in the
number of appointments may be expected.
As usuai, there Is dissatisfaction among
the congressmen over the manner in which
the president fills the officea. There wss
Just as much growling under the Harrison
administration aa there is now. This sort
of thing to as characteristic of one party
asof another. An amusing atary to told of
tbe experienoea of one office seeker—Colo¬
nel Dick Wiotersmlth of Kentucky. Colo¬
nel Wintersmith to a character. Probably
he to tbe best story teller Washington has
contained daring the last 10 years, and
there to a great number of famous sto
tellers In this town. Colonel Wintersmith
was for a long time on the anxious mat
Ho had applied for a consulate in Norway,
where the weather to delightfully frigid
atornt Line months of tbe year. Colonel
Wintersmith has long had an ambition to
live for a time where the son in all his
majesty may be seen at midnight in the
balmy month of June.
A Prophecy Fulfilled.
"I want to go np where the polar bears
live; where the natives slide down hill on
skis; where one goes to bed In a sleeping
bag; where there to no yellow fever, chol¬
era harass or sunstroke; and where serpents mosquitoes do not do make not

have set my heart on it. But I know thto
administration. I know It to fond of doing
Just what somebody doesn’t want it to do.
Now, in my case I am Just dying to be
trapped, but I’ll wager you a bottle of
wine that when my appointment comes
ont I’ll find that I have been fricasseed.”
The colonel was a prophet. In a few
weeks his appointment was announced.
Instead of a consulate in Norway he was
given a post away down on the equator,
where cholera and yellow fever do business
tbe year round, and where the fat colonel
will have to spend three-fourths of his sal¬
ary in cool drinks.
“Well, how did you fare!” asked a
friend of Colonel Wintersmith tbs day the
appointment was made.
“Fricasseed, by thunder!’’ he responded
sadly. accepted Just the
But he the place same.
The Place Seeking Horde.
President Cleveland has made a vigor¬
ous effort to relieve himself of many of the
worriments of appointment making by in¬
sisting that candidates and tbeir friends
shall go to tbe members of the cabinet
and not to the White House with their
pleas and their papers. Tbe president set
himself seriously about the institution of
this reform. Other presidents have thought
of it and attempted it in a half hearted sort
of way. Mr. Cleveland was the first to
start on an earnest and businesslike cam¬
paign in defense of his own time and peace
of mind. Even President Cleveland has
failed. Hto will has not been strong enough
to chauge the custom of a century, in
vain dqt he Issue orders that all these
matters of appointments should go to the
heads of deportments. In vain did be or¬
der that senators and representatives
should not be admitted to hto preaenoe ex¬
cept upon “urgent business.” They call
just as often as before, and their business
to always urgent. They declins to be cod-
ice- with an interview with tbe secretary
of the treasury, or the secretary of the in¬
terior, or any other cabinet officer. They
refuse to be satisfied with a talk with Pri¬
vate Secretary Thurber, who guards Hie
portal. They must see tbe president him¬
self, and no one else. They do see the
president, and notwithstanding hto efforts
to reform the methods of his office Mr.
Cleveland to at thto very day struggling tbeir
with* horde of place hunters and
congressional backers.
