THE AERIAL POLICE
New York City, if we are not mis
taken, was the first city in this coun
try to organize an aerial police force.
The use or such an organization in a
city like New York is valuable, and it
' has probably proven its value. Other
sections of the country can profit by
the example of the officers of the law
in Omaha, Neb. A group of bold, bad
men held up a bank and got away. The
four of them made off with $40,000.
An aviator was secured, put on their
truil, and he successfully followed
their journey, directing the sheriff’s
posse from the air. The robbers were
found ip their camp and taken prison
ers by the officers. This is the first
instance of the kind that we have
seen recorded.

MORAL—DON’T BORROW
A man who was too stingy to sub
scribe for his home paper sent his lit-,
tie boy to borrow the copy taken by a
neighbor. In his haste the boy ran
over a $4 stand of bees and in ten
minutes looked like a warty summer
squash. -His father ran to his assis
tance, and failing to notice the barb
wire fence, ran into that, cutting a
hole in his anatomy and ruining a $5
air of trousers. The old cov took ad
vantage of the gap ia the fence and
got into the corn field and killed her
self eatitag green corn. Hearing a
racket, the wife ran out, upset a four-
gallon chum full of cream into a bos
ket of little chickens, drowning the
entire hatch. In her haste she
dropped t $89 set of false teeth. The
dng been left alone, crawled
milk into the parlor,
>new $25 carpet. Dur-

We’ve “Kicked A Goal”
Hart Schaffner & Marx are
Making boy’s clothes for us.
T HAT’S what the boys are going to say about
us when they hear this good news. Hart
Schaffner & Marx have made “Knicker” suits and
boy’s overcoats for us.
Mothers and fathers will be pleased, too; boys
go through clothes,pretty fast; it has been almost
impossible to get anything that would stand the
“gaff.”
We thought,, and Hart Schaffner & Marx
thought, that boy’s ought to have better quality;
the kind of tailoring, all-wool 1 fabrics and style
that went into father’s clothes.
Well, the clothing is here for boys of eight years
and up, and its great stuff; the boys are going to
like the styles. They have all the smart touches
that young men have in their clothes; belts double
breasted effects, yokes, plaits; they have all the
quality, all-wool fabrics and careful tailoring that
means long wear and economy. Girls are going
to like the boys’ overcoats. Unusually good val
ues at—
SI 8.50 to $22.50
W E guarantee satisfaction in everything we sell—
that includes boy's-elothes. If you don’t think
you get full value—money cheerfully refunded.
- THE CASH STORE
P. S.—Don’t forget we have the best line ladies coats, suits, wool and silk dress goods that we have ever
carried at prices miich less than we could buy them now.
