conditions
student At the AVomati'd Medical
College, Twenty-first and North College
avenue, faced all the terrors of the
highly disturbed city of Vladivostok,
but quailed nnd boiled from the room
when confronted by the (irent American
Interview.
Doctor Van, who has just arrived in
this city to take n special medical
course, was enjoying n quirt supper nt
the dormitory of the Woninn's Medical
College, when some one told her that a
reporter had come to see her. She took
two steps into the roo, wheeled nliotit
ami ran.
After a few minutes her friends
persunded her to come back nnd take
a less hurried view of the situation.
She said, pronouncing her words with
rare rleurness nnd charm, that she
could not speak Knglish. She ex
plained, in the purest diction, thnt her
knowledge of the language was so frag
mentary that she could scnrcely make
herself understood. She really believed
it And so the interview went merrily
on.
Another illusion of this charmingly
shy Oriental lady was that anything
she might say could be of no possible
interest to any one nccording to her.
.Months In Hospital
Yes. she had been for nine months
in the American Tied Cross hospital
for refugees in Vladivostok, but she hail
been only an assistant to the Americnn,
llusslnn and Chinese doctors.
They had been very busy during epi
demics of typhus nnd jnllur117.11. for
many of the people were starved nnd
homeless and there never was room
enough in the hospital to take care of
li wns rrv bud. but she had been
too busy in pay much attention to the
confusion in the city.
Of course, it wns very hard to find a
place in lie or get enough to eat, but
their pint) hud not suffered greatly.
Thev had, it wns true, lived for several
weeks in a box car, which wns fairly
comfortable for nn nccotiitnodntion of
that sort, hut then every one was doing
those tilings.
And the llolshevlki. No. she knew
nothing about them. Of course, it wns
not safe to walk nbotit the streets
after Mindown. nnd one often heard
(hooting. Hut that was nil. And in
the men's ward many who hnd been
wounded in these riots were brought In
for treatment. Hut all this was going
on in the city, where she was too busy
to go.
Many Soldiers There.
The soldiers of all the world were
there, too So many different ones,
in their -li-nnge uniforms, patrolling the
streets or .standing about smoking in
the squares of the city. Russians, of
course, and Japanese, Chinese and
Knglish. French. Italians, Armenians
and the Americans.
The American lied Cross Hospital
had been a Hussiau barracks in the
earlier days of the war. It had three
floors nnd winds for men nnd women
400 lieds in all. There wns just one
other hospital in all the city, that run
by the American army. She could not
see what would become of the poor
Hussions after all the Heel Cross units
hnd left. The American doctors nnd
nurses hail worked so hard. There was
so much left lo do. for conditions were
still very bad.
After n short rest nt her home in Soo-
chow, Chlnn. where she had two years
before graduated from the American

A year ago we figured that th.e Mawson & DeMany business would demand
hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth, of Furs. We bought and bought, and in
J)0 per cent of cases bought considerably below the present markets so much
below that today we are selling Furs at 25 to ,'!0 per cent less than the average
small furrier or department store.
Because We Bought Our Skins and Manufactured
Direct Lowering Our Own Prices in Order
to Keep Faith With Our Public!
We've manufactured the 400,000.00 worth of Furs that are now in our pos
session in our establishment. In the isolated instances where we were unable lo
get the skins at our price, we've gone ahead and lowered the prices to correspond
with our margins in every other line. .This is "keeping faith." You'll find here
the most marvelous collection of Furs ii the East at prices the very epitome of
bedrock!

Get the Watch You Have
Decided to. Buy
Substitution usually breeds
dissatisfaction. There is
nothing "just as good" to a
man or woman who has set
mind and heart upon some
thing else. And the dealer
who sells a customer against
the wishes of that customer
is a poor business man.
This obvious fact is the foun
dation of all Waltham Watch
advertising. The layman
knew very little about a
watch. To him. it was a
mystery of wheels and gears
and pinions, and he believed
almost everything he was told
about it. So we took the
mystery out of a watch
' took him on a tour of inspec
tion through its "works" and
showed him by illustration
and simple language why the
Waltham has become univer
sally famous as a time-keeping
mechanism.
And thiswasthefirsttimeinthe
history of watchmaking upon 4
this continent that the pro
spective purchaser of a watch
had been educated, provided
with many facts hitherto
unpublished and given
many reasons why his watch
selection should unqualifiedly
be a Waltham Watch.
We could do this because we
were the first watchmakers
in the New World to apply
American mechanical genius
to making the parts of watches
absolutely uniform in quality
by marvelous machinery, to
making them-more accurate,
giving them a flawless stand
ardization which protected
every purchaser or a Wal
tham Watch from those ma
terial variations which are
'natural attributes of foreign
watches made by hand.
We were enabled to open
wide the door to the works
of a Waltham Watch because
there were many exclusive
Waltham inventions and
metallurgical discoveries en
shrined in its creation which
we were proud to reveal.
And because a fallacy was
abroad in the land that the
foreign-built watch was supe
rior to this Ainerican master
piece we were glad to do
our part to dispel this mis
leading idea.
Therefore we welcomed the op
portunity to make comparisons.
Ad Americans .we take pride in de
fending American genius, Amer
ican watchmakers and American
horological achievement as demon
strated in the Waltham Watch.
People did not generally know that
Waltham had won a large majority,
of the highest honors at the world's
greatest expositions that Wal
tham had obtained over six hun
dred Kew Observatory ''"cer
tificates from stock models at
London perhaps the severest test
of time-keeping performances that
can be given a watch.
And now the demand for Waltham
Watches is greater than the sup
ply our enormous resources are
taxed to the utmost. Some one
has to wait. The dealer is not
to blame. But substitution is a
poor exchange for conviction. If
you, have decided to buy-a Wal
tham Watch, your good judgment
equals that of any other man. We
prize most that in which our own
(faith is invested.
A Waltham Watch' is a lifetime,
investment. If it is the watch you
have decided to buy, and cannot
get it immediately, wait for it
You will be amply repaid. It will
give you that faithful, dependable
time-keeping service which has
made Waltham the World's Watch'
Over Time.
