V An itching skin quickly relieved by vJ An 5oelhinq and He&linq Yeu don't have te wait: Oneapplicatien of this gentle ointment brings heartfelt relief and healing A mother's sobbing plea tcleased n young sailor who was about te be held for court today by Mnglstrnte Oswald en a charge of drugging and robbing nn acquaintance. Dcsplte the fact that the complainant was willing te forge bis statements nt a previous hearing and refused te make positive identification of the men he bad niTCsted, Mnglstrnte Oswald felt that there was sufficient evidence te held the young man, until he was moved by bis weeping mother. On November 12 Arthur Fisher, 1727 Seuth Ycwdall street, went te a dance hall nt Thirty-ninth nnd Market streets. where he met Edward Scott, n sailor en the United States' steamship Relief, and Maurlce Starably, 2122 Camac Rtrcet. Fisher alleged that after the dance they went te Stambly's home, where they had much te drink. When he had the two young men arrested the next day he charged that they had doped his liquor and robbed him of a $50 ring, $47 in cash, nnd given him a sevcre beating. He positively identi fied Scott nnd Stambly as the men in volved. Today Fisher was net ee certain of the identity of the two men. Moved, perhaps, by the spectacle of Scott's mother, who wept bitterly throughout the hearing, no suucu tunc no nau uc-cn reimbursed for what he had lest, and refused te identity the men. u. Ii. Janeway, chaplain en Scott's ship, pleaded hard for the boy, speke of an excellent record for four jears in the nary, and expressed his doubt that Scott would have been mixed up in such a case. Magistrnte Oswald wns obdurate, however, until Mrs. Scott cnnic te the bar of the court. She was weeping se bitterly that she could net mnke her self heard. Flnnlly the magistrate told her that he did net bellcve that any one really wnntcd the boys te go te court nnd discharged them both.

The manner of observance of the day has undergone little or no change a day of feasting and social gathering as well as of reverent thanksgiving. The nation is called upon te pause in contemplation of the many blessings bestowed upon us, and this year we have indeed much te be thankful for. We are living in a land of plenty; and we are rising slowly but surely out of the disturbing conditions following a great war. Creps have been bountiful, business is en a firmer foot ing, and the number of unemployed is decreasing. Of the many things for which the nation should be thankful none is of mere profound significance than the conference in Wash ington looking toward the immediate reduction of armaments and the eventual abolishing of war. This Stere has much te be thankful for first of all that we have held the CONFIDENCE OF THE PUBLIC throughout the try ing period of higher costs and especially during the past eighteen months of readjustment of prices and less of profit in many, many lines of goods. We have evidence en every hand of the public's understanding and appreciation of the fact that OUR PRICES ARE RIGHT and the quality of goods trustworthy. One significant proof is the steady increase of NEW CUSTOMERS. We have opened 894 MORE charge accounts in the past six months than in the same period last year and last year was our greatest year. The Stere will be closed all day te-morrow. i Beginning Friday Morning at Eight e' Cleck An Unusual and Unexpected Sale of Men's Clothing On Friday merninjr the deer at the corner of Market and Eighth Streets will be opened at EIGHT O'CLOCK for the convenience of men and young men who wish te step en their way te business te take advantage of this wonderful Sale Wickham Suits at One-third Less Than This Seasons Lew Prices Actual Savings of $9.50 te $24.00 Men's Alce Winter Overcoats at Savings of $12.00 te $22.50 See further details of this wonderful eent in the newspapers of te-morrow evening.
