"They Take to the Water Like Dvicks." That's the expressive manner in which one young woman spoke yesterday about the One-Piece Tub Dresses Being offered here in a great sale that will continue with ever increasing interest. It is indeed a luxury to be able to slip into a dress that fits perfectly, that is in good style and excellent taste, and that can safely be put into the tub to come out again as fresh and as good as when new. This offering comprises the largest single lot ot dresses that ever came into the store. We've recently sold more dresses than ever before in any similar event, and there'll be busy buy ing from the big assortment that remains. Some Very Unusual Prices on Millinery. With us it is not so much a question of price as it is get ting the stock cleaned up. It has always been our custom to dispose of every trimmed and untrimmed hat we had in stock before the close of the season. Many times, in order to do this, we've had to use the knife pretty liberally. This year the sea son has been backward the weather man has treated us shamc lully and it is his fault that so many pretty hats are left on our hands with June over half gone. But if Spring has been late so it surely will be with Summer. This means many months yet to wear Summer Hats. These prices ought to prove irre sistible. 50 Women's Trimmed Hats, were all the way from $5 to 7.50, at $2. 25 Women's Trimmed Hats, were all the way from $10 to $20, at $5. 100 Children's Hats, at 50 cents.

Hit Telling Work at Washington For a Protective Tariff Endears Him to His Party More Than Ever Party Condition Nearer Perfection Now Than in Yean. A winning ticket, composed of cap;' ble and worthy men, possessing ele ments of strength and attractiveness which must naturally enlist the sup port and vote of every Pennsylvania Republican; a platform in which tlw Pennsylvania Idea of a Protective tar iff is presented in a form about which there is no doubt or question, whicii is a succinct and timely summary of the plan pursued and policy adhered to by Pennsylvania's Republican rep l -'sentntives at Washington, especially in the Senate, and which serves no- tu e to the party throughout the Unit ed States that this Commonwealth ha3 iio thought of departing from the safe mid sound principle of genuine Pro tection, no matter what the agitation of the moment; another demonstra tion that peace and harmony prevail in the ranks of Keystone Republicans, despite the professional agitators of Philadelphia who are always in evi d"nce under nny and all clrcuni st.inces; further evidence of the confi dence reposed in Governor Stuart who has In no way been found wanting; a reiteration of the general satisfaction with which the work of the last Leg islature Is regarded; and another ex emplification of the esteem and nd miration Pennsylvanlaus entertain for Senator Boles Penrose, intensified by the gallant tight he has been and ii making for continued protection to Pennsylvania's industries, a fight which has won for htm the co opera tion and hearty approval of some who were once his bitterest political ene mies Such, in brief, is a summary of the proceedings of the Republican State convention held at llarrisburg on June 16. It was held under most sat-l-'.irt -'y conditions: There was noth ing for which any apology had to bo made. There was nothing whatever that needed any explaining, bene? there were no explanations offered. The convention Ftnod In the light of th:ngs actually accomplished. It was proper that it should congratu late itself upon the party's record for It is one without a blemish. Standing upon this record the party presents as its candidates Judge Robert von Moschzlskcr, of Philadelphia, in whom the Supreme Bench will gain an in telligent and indefatigable worker, one w hose services in the cause of Justice has been marked by shining ability and constant uprightness; A. K. Sis son, of Krie, for Auditor General, and J. A. Stober, of Lancaster, for State Treasurer, both of whom are well known ns legislators and who, like the party itself, stand upon their records. There was another specially grati fying feature connected with the con vention's work and that was the re election of Col. Wesley R. Andrews as State chairman. It was a foregone conclusion that he would again be chosen, and it is Just ns certain to be followed by other re-elections Ju-H as long as Col. Andrews will agree to take upon himself the discharge of tho arduous duties which attach to that office. All this is very gratifying to every Republican In the State. There Is no other worker in the party better equipped for the position than Col. Andrews, l'nder the direction of no other chairman has th i Republican party in Pennsylvania ever achieved such record breaking victories. The reception accorded Senator Penrose at the convention and the comments of the delegates made it very apparent that Senator Penrose Is Vnlay, more than ever before, the beau ideal leader of his party In tho Keystone State. Not alone that either, for the people of the State, irrespec tive of party, have been impressed by the splendid work Senator Penrose has performed for his people In the Senate, especially so during tho progress of the tariff revision debate. With Senator Penrose as the party leader and Col. Andrews as his able lieutenant end executive officer, tho Itf publicans have given Pennsylvania In Governor Stuart an executive whose administration is conceded even by the P'H'iy's enemies, as wise, Judicious, progressive and honest to the core. It is rare, perhaps it is unparalleled, that an administration should com plete its second year without a criti cism of moment. Yet no scandal has nssidled the administration, the Legis lature, the Republican party since Governor Stuart took tho oath of of fice. At. Washington the party has been ably represented. Senator Pen rose has heen an active force In the construction and defense of the Tro tt tive tailfl bill, guarding the inter etts of Pennsylvania at all points. Nowhere In the Republican armor, therefore, is there a weak spot. Other States are wrestling with treir financial problems. Pennsyl vania has no financial problem. If the sinking fund is considered she has no debt. In this respect she stands al most if not quite alone. As the Phila delphia Inquin-r kivs: "With a gov ernment that miglit well be a model for other Commonwealths to follow, with reform laws that set the pace, with a treasury equal to ail the de mands made upon it, Pennsylvania In vites the inspection of the whole Na tion. She Is doing things. She is building good roads, erecting asylums aud hospitals and is far in the lead of the Sisterhood of Slates in her or ganized warfare upon the great white plague of consumption." Though the Republican party In Pennsylvania has gone through fire in recent vars it has come out of HOWE'S Great London Shows At Tionesta, Tuesday, July 6 The Show this year is Bigger and Better and in a More Commanding position than ever belorc to maintain their unri valed standing and rank, and to Amaze and Delight Their Thousands of Patrons.
