100 Trimmed Hats for Children,
25 and 50 Cents.
Two lots, one at 25c and the other at 50c. All ready for
the youngsters to put on nnd wear. If wc were to tell you that
these prices asked do not represent one-fourth their worth,
you'd hardly believe it, would you? Yet it's a fact. A big lot
irom a large wholsaler happened to come our way at a ridicu
lously low price. That's why you get such a chance at them.

The PriDlz Co. have added Oil City to their list of cities
and now operate what is considered the most beautiful clolhiog
store jo the Uoited Slates. This is not au assumption on our
part, but the unanimous opinion of experts in a position to
judge.
This store is strikingly modern in its construction, and
handles high grade Clothing;, Hats and Furnishing Goods for
Men, lioys and Childreu. We own and operate six large stores
and cater to the trade who appreciate the best goods obtainable
AT ONE LOW conservative price. In order that we shall
get better acquainted with Tinoesta and its people, we will
during the month of May pay the car fare to and from Tionesta
on all purchases of S10 and upward. We have beautiful
souveuirs for everybody, and values that will make it worth
while to call and see us.

Moth.r Earth.
When Junius lirutu ntul the sons of
Taniuln nskttl the fnmotta IMplile or
acle who wns to Fitcoced Snperbus on
the throne of Koine they received for
an answer, "He w ho shall first kiss his
mother." As the two princes were has
tening home to fulfill what they
thought was meant Brutus fell to the
earth and cried out, "Thus do I kiss
thee, O Earth, the mother of us all!"
This Is perhaps the earliest recorded
Instance of the use of the term "Moth

The Stone of Infamy.
In many Italian cities there formerly
existed what was called jiietra d'in
fainic," or a stone of Infamy for the
punishment of bankrupts, in Venice
one stands uear tho Church of St.
Murk, and lu Verona and Florence
they are near the old markets. On a
day lu carnhal week the old time cus
tom was to have till traders who had
become bankrupt lu the preceding
twelve months led to the stone, and
one by one each sloo.l on its center to
hear the reading of a report of his busi
ness failure and to endure the re
proaches heaped on liiia by his credi
tors. At the end of a certain time each
bankrupt was partly undressed, and
three oilicers took hold of his shoulders
nnd three others of his knees and,
raising him as high ns they could,
humped him on the stone deliberately
twelve times, "In honor of the twelve
apostles," the creditors crowing like
cocks while the humping proceeded.
The Only Difference.
Clorlnda was as black as night and
of heroic proportions, but in every pos
sible way she copied her slender young
mistress, for whom she hud a great ad
miration. "1 like to look jes' as much
like you ns I can," she often said,
" 'cause you looks Jes' like a lady orter
look. Mis' Hend'son."
Clorlnda Intrusted all her shopping
to Mrs. Henderson and scorned the
bright colors and pronounced styles af
fected by her own friends. One day
she asked her mistress to buy ber a
pair of low shoes. As she made the re-
quest she glanced with admiration at
the slim little foot showing beneath
the edge of a dainty skirt.
"An' I want 'ein Jes' exactly like
yours. Mis' Hend'son." said Clorlnda.
"no diffVnce 'ceplin' dey's gotter be
wide nines, so maybe de buckle might
'pear better If 'twas a teenty uilte
lar;;er'n yours." Youth's Companion.

The service of the trust company

said of the individual
Another point which must be
properly considered in this connec
tion is that an individual trustee may
die during the period of trust and
quite possibly leave his affairs in
such shape as to require a great
deal of expense to the estate be
fore they can be properly readjust
ed and his duties performed by
someone else.
