This Store Has No "Competitors."
Our standard of value-giving, open and above board
business methods, and money back without qoibble or quar
rel principles, puts this store beyond the pile of even the
slightest comparison by any one else. Business with us is
wonderfully good. Every day, every week and every month
we are doing more busioess than the same time a year ago.
We are too busy to even think for a minute of the imaginary
"bard times" that others are talking about. WE KNOW
that times are good. We feel that the people are alive to
opportunities.
Wlinesset.il On Saturday we offered a hundred
Fanoy Blue Serge Suits for men at f 18. We were busy all
day and sold a great many of these Suits. We sold some
Suits to men who had all the clothes they ne ded, but for
$18 well, it was too good to "pass up." These Suits are
wonderfully good, f 18 is remarkably low. We eould never
give them at this price but J. Cohen Sons & Co. needed
money and we bad it. The offer we made was accepted.
Hence, (18 gets you a Fancy Blue Serge Suit that should
bring at least $22.50. All sizes.

8he Had Courage.
A self possessed young woman who
knew no French strolled Into one of
the larger downtown enfes. She spoke
to the waiter In that decisive tone
which distinguishes the Initiated and
glanced over the French bill of fare
with the nonchalaut air of a Pa
rlslenne. "I'll tinve,' she began firmly as she
plunged Into the sea of French dishes
"I'll have let me see. Oh, yes, I'll
have some bisque tortonl, a sultana
roll, pomiues de terre and a little of
that frontage. And. gnrcon, you might
as well bring me a cup of coffee."
The waiter gasped He started to
speak, but the young woman froze him
with one of those icy stares peculiar
to the thoroughly sophisticated.
And the order arrived two kinds of
Ices, boiled potatoes and a piece of
cbeese. But she ate It as If she had

Stories on Doctors.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle told several
good stories of old fashioned practi
tioners he knew. There was one man,
be said, who never used to wash out
the half emptied bottles returned to
him, but emptied tbem Into one huge
ti r, from which he dispeused this mix
ture of medicines to bis more obscure
patients. "It Is like grnpesbot," he
said; "one of them Is sure to hit."
There was another man who used to
say, "When my patients are alive I
don't know whnt Is the matter with
tbem and when they die I don't know
whether they are dead." That was
like the medical man who said to a
lady whose husband be had been at
tending, "Madam, I have a very strong
belief that your husband Is dead, but
if It Is your wish I have no objection
to a consultation."
Cute Little Girl,
One day while Kntherlno's mother

drank almost all of It Her father
was about to scold ber when her moth

"Never mind; It does me Just as
much good to see ber drink It."
Shortly after this a dose of castor
oil was prepared for Katberlne, and
she poured It luto ber doll's mouth.
"Why Katherlne." said her aston
ished mother, "whnt did you do that
for?"
"That's all right." Katherlne replied,
"It will do me Just as much good if

The Danger of Criticism,
If you simply cannot help criticising
at least be carei'ul lu selecting your
victim.
A magazine editor to whom O. Hen

"My Dear O. Henry if I do not re
ceive that story from you by noon to

Whereupon O. Henry replied:
"I, too. would keep my promises If
I could do nil my work with my feet."

Fielding at Lisbon.
Lisbon contains the grave of Henry
Fielding. It was on Oct 4, 1754, that
Fielding died in the rortugucse cap
ital, and It was In 1S30 that his tomb
wns erected lu the English cemetery.
And Fielding didn't like LIsbou. "As
the houses, convents, churches, etc.,
are large," he wrote, "and all built
with white stone, they look beautiful
at a distance, but as you approach
nearer and And them to want every
kind of ornament all Idea of beauty
vanishes at once." At that time a
voyage to Lisbon was on undertaking
not lightly to bo contemplated. It
took Fielding exactly fifty days of
foul weather. St. James' Oazette.
