They're Really Handsome
And So Rich Looking
Oriental and India Lounging Robes were once a
luxury ot the few wealthy people to whom money
was no obiecr. People of moderate means could see
them and admire them, but to own one was out of the
question, for the price was prohibitory. But
An Indian Lounging Robe,
While Still a Luxury, Is Now
Easily Within Your Reach.
Look at our windows any day you happen to pass
the store this week, and take in the beauty of that
display, The robes there shown have lost none of
their subtle charms. The rich color harmonies in
striking contrasts or soft shadings remain unchanged
while the exquisite work of the genuine Indian weave
is there in its entiiety, for these are genuine.

FIGURING ON THE COST.
School Board Committees Preparing
Their Estimates.
Meetings of the teachers and high
and training school committees were
held, last night, in the board of control
rooms, for tho purpose of preparing es
timates for the coming fiscal year, as
requested by tho linance committee.
The teachers committee fixed $166,000
as the least possible amount It could
get along with. This is an Increase of
$11,000 over tho amount allowed last
year. Tho Increase is nBked that pro
vision may bo made for fifteen new
teachers. The committee believes that
nil this number of teachers will not
be engaged, but as It Is possible the
Increase in attendance may demand it
the committee wants to be prepared
for such an emergency.

TO REACH STROUDSBURG.
Lehigh ValleyXsSaTd to Have Flans
for Getting a Road to That
Place and Water Gap.
The Lehigh Valley, it is said, In rail
road circles, will soon push Its line
Into Stroudshurg and the Delaware
Water Gap. Two routes are being con
sidered; one direct from Mauch
Chunk, a distance of about eighteen
miles, the other from Easton, out over
the Easton and Northern and the Ban
gor and Portland railways. These
lines arc tributaries of the Lehigh and
run through a region rich with slate.
The latter road Is about 29 miles long,
tunning from Slatington to Portland;
the former !s ten miles, running from
Enston to Nazareth. The Bungor and
Portland Is only a few miles south of
Stroudsburs, and It's from some point
on this road that the route to Strouds
hurg and the Watet Gup Is being con
sidered. Railroad men seem to think that this
route will be chosen.
It Is shorter than the Mauch Chunk
route, and It would bring Stroutlsburg
and the Water Gap nearer to the two
great Eastern cities than the Chunk
route would. The distance from
Stroudsburg to Easton via the Bangor
and Portland and Eastern and North
ern route would be about twenty-five
miles; from Stroudsburg to Philadel
phia, about eighty-eight miles, and
from Stroudsburg to New York about
ninety-five miles.
ELK BOWLERS WIN.

After the game tho WUkes-Barro
