Once in a while we oueht to state the general fact that we have, ten times over, the lartrcst and best collection of rich and novel dress-stuffs in town. Once in a while we ought to state the other general fact that we sell such stuffs at fair prices at first, and put them down as the season wanes or they prove unsuccessful. They are not economical stuffs. They take no account of money. But we do not make them needlessly ex travagant. It is proper to say these things to you right here at home and to you within traveling distance f ..- r.. i oi us. i ou nave eyes to see with. This isn't the only store you siiop at. What we say has tiouuie torce n you nnd ltimpar tial, and double force the other way if you find it empty brag l en times me largest variety oi ncn new ciress-stutis; not needlessly extravagant. Southwest and southeast ot tho center. Think of that counter of rem nants and odd-lot dress-stuffs again. All the remnants made today.to morrow go to the remnant coun ter. The quickest stuffs to go are tne nrst to make remnants. All the last-year's stuffs wheth er remnants or not are there. All the stuffs coining in for what ever reason that hinder trade at the dress-stuff counters go to the odd-lot counter. It's a store by itself; and it makes the rest ot the store better store by drawing the line between old and new, between fashionable and going out, be tween what you would like if money were plenty and what you were glad to get for half or three-quarters. liy tho Ctty-hall-square door. Blanket-time; that is, time to remind you of blanket-wisdom It isn't easy so close on the heels of sultry unbearable wea ther to be blanket-wise in r minute. Begin a little earlv. This is blanket-wisdom: No matter how coarse, no matter how fine, no matter how thin, no matter how thick, no matter whether cotton or wool but let the blanket be big. Depends on the size of your bedstead of course. One spends a third ol his time in bed un guarded. Let the blanket be big enough to lap over sides, tuck in, and be your nightly guard. There is but one virtue in blankets. That virtue is big ness. We have blankets lor wise and unwise people; more for the unwise because mere are more of them. There are two sorts of blankets: big and stingy. Keep those two words in mind There's a little hint besides about money. Buy by thepound The wisest people are apt to come first. They shall buy at present for 75 and 80c a pound and fare extremely well. The blankets we are thinking of vary in size and thickness and fine ness, $3.75 to $10 a pair. Shortly we shall have to tel of coarser and finer. We have both; $2 to $35. oppoalto tho Waiting Room off the West Transept. A needed word about Brus sels and Tapestry carpets. Brussels is Brussels and Tap estry Tapestry. We never say body Brussels for Brussels, nor lapestry Jirusscls lor lapestry. That is New York. Brussels you know all about. 1 apestry you know almost notn ingabout, except that Roxbury Tapestry always comes first By the way we are selling Roxbury Tapestry carpets for 75 cents a yard with plenty of latest pat terns with borders to choose from the usual price is $1 gets down sometimes to 95 or 90 cents did you ever hear of 75 before? Let us say an old thread-bare thing or two for the sake of say ing better a new one that ougnt to be known. Tapestry carpetis an imitation of Brussels. You may or may not beable to distinguish between them when they are on the lloor You can if you happen to know the one point in which they dif fer, viz., sharpness, exactness, angularity ot pattern, nut ev erybody knows that the woolanc: colors of Brussels show through on the back; and that is the way in which you probably judge be tween them. You think Brus sels shows its colors on the back and Tapestry doesn't. You are a year or two ueninu, 1 11c inar.e,-i a tfcn.n.ilicr's. are color-printing the back of lapestry, so that the old way of distinguishing Brussels from lapestry is trood-for-nnfliincr You have got to know more of both than formerly to nun Un. tween them. We are mllin.r tW,a for warning. "Of course you are thinking, "no decent mer chant will tell me Tapestry is Brussels." We w'n't discuss the question who is decent and who is not; but the usual practice is to speak of Tapestry as Brussels. In New York the merchants all say "Brussels": so do their snips. men of course; and, if asked the question squarely whether the carpet is Brussels or Tapestry, they tret out of the hnU-rnlrl 1i. by saying "Tapestry Brussels" mcy get onto! it because they don t dare to stick to it. W,. maintain that the lying is don when the lie is betrun. Brussels is Brussels and Tap estry lapestry. John Wanamakkk.

Tho exhibits wcro larger and some ot them better than for merly. Tho display ot agricultural pro ducts depends upon tho condition ot the crops. This was a very unfavorable year for somo of tho crops In tho northern part of the county. Tho npple crop, which sel dom falls there, is nn inferior crop this year and tho display ot apples at the Fair showed it, Tho display of potatoes wns very small and bo was tiio crop. Squashes, beets, rutabagas, carrots, onions, tomatoes, were as largo and lino ns nt any Fair. Tho cars of corn, tho specimens of wheat, ryr, oats, buckwheat, barley, could not bo ex celled. A full lino of mill products wns exhibited by O. W. Cole, of Hhorsburg. Tho honey crop was never larger than this year nnd such largo displays wcro never beforo seen nt a Fair in tho county. T largest exhibitors were Daniel Fritz and Joslah Coleman. Tho praises of tho wo men In the northern part of tho county have been so often sounded that It is only necessary to say that their display did them credit. Tho bread and cakes and pics cannot be excelled. Tho pics alono occupied as much spaco as all other baked goods Thero was scores of them. The wines, piescrvcs, jellies, spiced, pickled and canned fruits wcro almost too tempt ing to resist. Hero where you never hear the expression, "good butter," for nil but ter Is good, the most beautiful rolls were shown. The funcy work compared very favor, able with that seen nt larger Fairs.

Fine work on ladles undergarments showed how skillful tho ladles In that part of the comity are with tho needle. The work in wool, hair and nrtiflclnl Mowers were very fine. Tho display of millinery goods, lints nnd bonnets trimmed in ribbons nnd fenth ers and birds, was very creditable. Tho exhibition of live stock was an im provemont over last year. The Holslcln bull of John J. Earns attracted n good bit ot attention 011 account ot his immense size, llo weighs 2040 pounds. Then were a number of Aldcruey and Shorthorn cattle; besides Devons, Guernseys and na tive stock. Tho horse show wa3 very fine, The handsomest horses, marcs, colts and driving horses were to be found among the exhibit. The farmers aro selecting the males with greater caro and tho colts show olf better. Sheep nnd swine wero not very numerous and they did not show much caro in breeding. The poultry display was tho smallest of all. All tiie faucy breeds weie, however, represented. Benton is too far from Hie railroad to have a largo display of agricultural imple ments. Thero was only one mowing ma chine', tho Champion, one broancust seeder, ono feed cutter, splitter and crusher. There was a goodly number ot wagons exhibited. Tho Appleman Bros., of Hen ton, had several of their celebrated farm wagons, a platform spring wagon, with a greatly improved platform, nnd several skeleton wagons.

There were moru shows nnd fakirs nt this than at any previous meeting of the Benton association. Thero were four tents. In the one was exhibited tho tall Congo Indian, a pair of pythons, a Punch & Judy show and a man swallowing an 18- Inch sword.
