vons and waited and wondered until 11
o'clock and then each one hunted her
own home.
PAICK TIIEATKE.
"O'BRIEN, THE CONTRACTOR," TOES
DAY, MARCH 28.
"O'Brien, the Contractor." is replete
with deft touches of humor and
pathos combined with a story
of absorbing heart interest. The stage
settings and scenery are novelties and
make an ensemble that gives a series of
delightful stage pictures. unique,
picturesque, and appealing to
the refined tastes of cultured theater
l goers. The costumes worn by the
ladies of the company possess special
interest. "O'Brien, the Contractor," is
a play that is full of bright comedy ar.d
is interpreted by a strong company
which cannot fail to please the most
fastidious play goers.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE, PITTSBURG.
"Uncle Tom's Cabin "will be gorgeous,
ly revived at the Grand Opera house
next week, beginning Monday, March

the stage with all the elaboration and
spectacular magnificence made possible
by the resources of a big theatre. Man

shall be the most striking that has ever
been seen in Pittsburg. He has given J.
C Huffman, the stage manager, carte
blanche, and there will be no time,
money nor labor spared to make it a
singularly beautiful and impressive
production. The allegorical tableaux
have been devised with such care and
thought of artistic beauty that they
will doubtless excel anything ever seen
in that way in this city. The apotheo
sis of Eva and Uncle TOlll will be
shown in a brilliant transformation
scene that will be a marvel of stage
craft. There will be a large gathering
of Jubilee singers and dancers in the
plantation scenes, and the picturesqa

Trusses for Rupture are
necessary. The only ques
tion to consider is "where
t can I get the bjst truss for
the least 111 ney?" We sell
s trusses on the "no charge for
t fitting" plan. We charge you
simply for the truss. We go
further, we guarantee a fit
and guarantee satisfaction.
There are many different
kind of trusses, and one
great thing is to know what
i ' kind is best to use. We
1 1 have bad enough truss sell
ing experience to find that
out. Our stock of trusses is
not excelled in this vicinity,

SPRING FOOTWEAR
Strongest. Brightest and Most Stylish
Line Ever Shown in Rntlrr.
This to Be Our Banner Year
This will surely be our banner year. All our efforts have been crowned with
succes>. We started a sale in February of our Winter Tans and Box Calf Shoes.
The result is they are all gone. We have the money for them ami the much-need
ed room tor spring goods, and no back numbers on our hands for next fall
Pushing Spring m
.Ve are pushing spring goods hard—and not :i bit too early, for there is not a
man. woman or child in Butler that docs not want a nice pair of shoes for Easter.
We h:ive been thinking al>ou f you, planning for vou and studying your wants, and
we tlink we know them However, we will let you be the judge in this matter
when yon see our new line for spring.
For the Ladies to Wear, m
We feel safe in saying that we have the most complete line of Ladies' Shoes in
Butler. The Delsarte Shoes have no equal for style and comfort, ami have the
large>t sale of any advertised shoe in the world. Our cheaper lines are great this
year. We are very stroug on lines runuing from 9S ents to $2.00, tau or black.
For Men to Wear.^^>
The expressions we have heard from the young men of the town since we dis
played a few of our spring styles in our winliw gives us the assurance that our
judgnunt has sjited the tastes of our mmy customers who like to wear nice shoes.
Quite a number of our spring shoes can be s:~n on the streets and we feel proud of
them, as does tht wearers, for they are certainly is the boys say, "very swell."
Our spring goods are in all grades of Tan Shoes, Kid and Calf, and Black goods in
Patent Leather, Vici Kid, Calf, etc. Prices range from 98c to $5.00.
For Boys and Girls to Wear.
We have not forgotten the boys and girls. We have some very smart things
for you. and it is time you was looking around to see where you will bay your
Easier shoes. We like'to have you look aroun I and compare, for it always results
in our favor.
For the Baby to Wear.
Through the baby we reach the whole family. Some dealers look on the baby
department as a very small matter. We do not. We know that the bady must
anil will have nice shoes, and with that uppermost in our minds we bought this
line for spring. How well we succeeded can be told by the satisfied buyers.
We Want to Met You.
Come in and look over our new goods. If you don't need any footwear, now,
you may later. We have not mentioned anything about our large line of Slipper?,
Walking Shoes, Tennis Shoes, etc., but we will at some other time.
See us for Your Spring Shoes-
