A Drive
In Shoes.
We have inaugurated a big drive
in our Men's SI.OO shoe and there
never was a shoe that could stand a
harder kind of a drive tbaa it can.
It is all the same to this shoe whether
the road be rough or smooth or
whether tbe place be leisurely or
furious. It is cheap in the best senfce
of the word, that is to say it is an ex
ceedingly good article for an exceed
ingly low price.
You will get just about six cents
worth of service for every five cents
you pay for It, and that is where the
shrewdness of the purchase comes in.
Other shoes thst pays the purchase r
equally well is our Ladies' SI.OO,
$1.25, $1.50 and $2.00 shoe. You can
find shoes at these prices but yoa
won't find such stock or styles DS
those goods have. The test is to wear
a pair which means you will continue
to wear them.
It's a Mistaken Idea
In storekeeping that a merchant can
make money and a reputation by
misrepresenting facts and valueß in
his odvertisements. The fight now
adays is to earn a reputation for sell
ing o reliale article at a moderate
price. To secure this you must do
just what you say yon will,same price
to each and every customer. Tbe
newspaper advertising must be backed
np in the stock. Here's the whole
secret of onr success those who
emulate it cannot do better than fol
low where we lead.
See our Men's, Boys' and Youths'
tip boots, heavy shoes, high cat,
school shoes. The fine lines in Cal ,
Kangaroo, Cordovans, all width*,
styles and prices. Old Ladies' warm
shoes, we lead tbem all in variety
point of styles and prices, our stock
now contains about everything in the
boot and shoe line, don't forget ua
on rubber goods, sell best rubber
goods made at lowest prices.

THE population of Greece is Increas

THE eoachmen of Berlin wear a dis- j

A JL"I>OE in Glasgow has decided that
the amount of copper used in tinned
green peas was not dangerous, and that
the process need not be stopped.
THE population of St. Petersburg is
steadily diminishing. It is less by oighty
five thousand than it was at the census
taken seren years ago. No other
European capital is thus decreasing.
Is France a new "magic mirror" has
lately been introduced. It consists es
sentially of a glass plate coated with a
film of platinum so thin as to be trans

behind, while being a tree mirror or re
flector to light impinging it from the

MECHANICAL SCIENCE.
THE practice of "cold sawing" of
steel and iron is being generally
adopted.
IMPROVED engine practice has caused
the adoption of a mechanioal device for
constant feeding of fuel to the ftir

A NEW mode of furnishing power to
motor engines by mixing steain with
hot gases is creating a great deal of in
terest in English circles.
PEAT fuel has been found very suc
cessful in Russia. It is produced by a
patent process, and is cheaper than
coal, has less weight and bulk, and con
tains scarcely any sulphur.
IRON has been rolled to the thinness
of 1-ISOO of an inch. This exefcssivo
tenuity will be understood when it is
considered that the thinnest tissue
paper measures 1-1200 of an inch.
SCIENCE comes to the Iront in the
manufacture of grindstones. The best
now made are composed of a mixture of
pulverized quartz, powdered flint,
powdered emery, and rubber. They
ontwear by many years any natural
stone.
