Do Your Fall Sewing On a
New Machine.
The FREE sewing machine will cut the labor ot sewing in
two. Eight sets of ball bearings make its action smoother than
that of any other on the market. The Rotoscillo movement,
patented and used exclusively by its makers, combines the good
points of the vibrating shuttle and rotary movements. The
machine comes up belted when the hood is raisftd; no laborious
stooping to belt the drive wheel is necessary. Chiffon may be
sewn one minute and leather the next, for no adjustments are
necessary on the FREE.
In appearance this machine is uniquely handsome. The
rounded surfaces with consequent lack of sharp corners give a
most pleasing effect, while the legs are tastefully finished in
dull brown, instead of merely painted black, as in other makes.
It costs 35, a price no greater than that of any other
standard make, while the easy terms of payment in our Club
Offer of $5 down and f 1 a week, put it within the reach of all.
Moreover, when you buy this wondertul little machine you run
no risk whatever. A perpetual iron-clad guarantee accompanies
each one sold, while a five year LEGAL insurance policy cov
ering loss or damage by any conceivable means, is furnished ab
solutely free of charge.
An Interesting Three Days
Demonstration
Of the merits of the FREE sewing machine will take place at
this store, commencing Thursday, Sept. 14th, It will be an
event you can't afford to miss.
Pretty Silk Dresses for Fall a.t
$5.95.
Doing the unexpected, and doing it first that's one ot the
things that have brought our costume department to the fore
front as a leader in women's appareling. And surely this is un
expected Autumn styles at prices less than worth. You
would expect to pay from $15 to $20 for these dresses if you'd
see them without the price-tag. They're made of finest foulard
eilk from Valentine & Bentley in the latest shades, and cut in
the new Empire style. While they last they form too rare an

Rota Bonheur' Humble Lover.
When asked why she had never mar

"Nobody ever fell in love with me. I
have never been truly loved." More
than one man. however, really worship
ed her. But she inspired such deep re
spect that no man seems to hnvc dared
to reveal his feelings to her. There is
n curious example of this fact, taken
from the humble walks of lite. On
several occasions Itosa Bonheur had
done service for a wnrkiiigimiii who
throughout his life spent his savings
in buying engravings of her principal
pictures and photographs of herself.
His simple dwelling was a temple to
her kindness. lie described himself
ns "the earthworm in love with o
star." The person here referred to
E. A. Bautray of Clermont-I'orrand
tells me that. Itosa Bonheur once asked
him why lie was not married, and he
replied by asking her the same ques
tion. Hero was her answer: "Well,
sir, it is not because I am an enemy
of marriage, but I nssure you that I
have never had time to consider the
subject." "Iteinlniscences of Itosa

Found Way to Help,
A worthy old Quaker who lived In a
country town In England was rich
and benevolent, and his means were
put In frequent requisition for pur
poses of local charity or usefulness.
The townspeople wanted to rebuild
their parish church, nnd a committee
as appointed to raise funds. It was
vreed that the Quaker could not be
isked to subscribe toward an object
jo contrary to his principles; but then,
an the other hand, so true a 'friend to
Hie town might take It amiss If he
was not at least consulted on a mat
ter of such general Interest. So one of
their number went and explained to
him their project; tho old church was
to be removed and such and such steps
taken toward the construction of a
new one.
"Theo wast right," the Quaker said,
"In supposing that my principles
would not allow me to assist In build
ing a church. But didst thee not sny

church? Thee mny'st put my name
Jown for a hundred pounds." Merl

Gautler's Superitltlon.
Theophllo Gautler, the critic, novelist
and poet, like many another great
man, was suiierstltlous and believed
In the evil eye. Offenbach wns his
aversion, and In this respect a Tarts
trontemporary tells us that one day the
on and father were walking together.
The son, for wickedness' sake, start
ed, a conversation about Offenbach, nnd
bis father gave him to understand that
the subject was disagreeable. Noth
ing daunted, tho lad led Gautler to a
shop window where was exposed a
photograph of the composer.
As they resumed their walk the son
observed, "Well, you see, father, nfter
all, nothing has happened through
looking at the photograph." At that
moment they were turning the corner,
and the son preceded his father. In
full view of the passersby Gautler ad
ministered to his tormentor a paternal
kick, observing, half In anger nnd hnlf
In humor, "Well, something has hap
pened." Tight Collars.
Writing In the Hospital, London, Dr.
Walford warns everybody against tight
collars. He considers It remarkable
that no oue seems to have noticed or,
at any rnte, to have laid great stress
on the fact that such slight obstacles
to the free circulation of the blood
through the vessels of tho brain may
adversely Influence the health of those
who are in the habit of wapring tight
ly fitting neckcloths. "ITio fact ap
pears to be well known to veterinary
surgeons, who tell us that neck con
striction through badly fitting harness
Is a causative factor In 'staggers' In
horses," says the writer. It seems to
be equally well known that dogs suf
fer a great deal through having to
wear tightly fitting collars. Is it too
much, theu, Dr. Walford asks, to argue
that those of us who wcur our own
collars too tightly buttoned may find
in thut practice some explanation of
symptoms ascribed to other causes?
Tiny Republic.
Klein-Alp Is a diminutive republic
tucked away between Switzerland and
France. Only In summer Is the re

and cowgirls. There is one hotel, closed
during the winter. Another little re

and Italy, and in long gone years was

and then an euqtcror. But in the ad

Virtue of Vegetables.
Many vegetables piny a useful
pnrt In helping us to solve our
food problems, Cabbage, for ex
ample. Is one of the best vege
tables that can be selected for
this purpose. Then we have en
Ions, celery, radishes, carrots,
lettuce, spinach, tomatoes and
ono of the most Important of nil
horseradish. AmoRfc the herbs
sorrel and rhubarb are per Imps
the most useful. No food lu the
spring Is better than rhubarb,
while sorrel should be eaten ev
ery day, either In combination
with other vegetables mid herbs
as a salad or as one of the herbs
that are used to flavor the Boup.
To secure the best effect from
the acid combining foods most
of them should be eaten raw, or
at least they should be cooked as
slightly as possible. Too much
cooking destroys the organic
mineral salts, without which
these foods would fall to accom
plish their purpose. That Is why
we crave such things as row cel
ery and radishes. Those who
have tried raw cabbage and raw
onions sliced and served as a
salad seldom go for a very long -time
without repeating the ex

this display of lack of fear did not en
tirely prevent some degree of panic
among the men, however, and seven
men pushed off In the port lifeboat,
leaving twenty-two to scramble Into
tho starboard boat. In spite of the
captain's orders the men in the port
boat refused to come alongside, nnd
those iu the starboard boat shouted
that If they did not put off the masts
would fall on them. Instead of hurry
ing to the boat the captain strolled to
his cabin and collected his papers.
After he had entered the boat he
transferred five men to the port boat
nnd made for Tanninnia, 100 miles
nwny. He nnd the mates steered In
