He is AN OPEN LETTER This Is Also a Paid Advertisement RIGHT OR WRONG We do not believe a whole lot in expending much money for newspaper advertising so that we are thereby compelled to ask increased prices for our goods. However, we do, just occasionally like to let EVERYONE know that this store is now as always selling furniture and other housefurnish at lower prices than most other stores. OUR WAY— We do a large business under an economical expense system which enables us to quote the lowest possible prices on EVERYTHING. Our prices are uniformly low on all our goods. Our stock is one of the largest and most complete in the city. Our customers will tell you that this store is not only one of the largest, but the best store in which to purchase their home needs. In fact, our customers really prove to be our advertisers and they have done it very well indeed. We believe thoroughly in a business system that will convince the cus tomer that what he purchases here is at least just a little better for the same money, or as good for less money than he can obtain it for elsewhere. This is the system which has built up our business to its present large proportions and is still doing good work for us. We try our best to give our customers the most for their money and our experience has been that the customer can always be depended upon to return the favor in some good way. REMEMBER THAT— You may not see our advertisement in the newspapers very often, but we ask you to chalk this down: When you want to buy good furniture at the way-down price, this is the store that is sure to be there with the goods you may want and with the price that will suit.

THIN FOLKS WHO WOULD OE FAT Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or More A Physician's Advice "I'd certainly give most anything to be able to fat up a few pounds and stay tlint way," declares every excessively thin man or woman. Such a result is not impossible, despite past failures. Thin people are victims of mal-nutri tion, n condition which prevents the fatty elements of food from being taken up by the blood as they are when the powers of nutrition are normal. Instead of getting into the blood, all the fat and flesh producing elements stay in the intestines until tliey pass from the body as waste. To correct this condition and to pro iluec a healthy, normal amount of fat the nutritive processes must be artifi ciallv supplied with the power which nature has denied them. This can best be accomplished by eating a Sargol tab let with every meal. Sargol is ft scien tific combination of jix of the best strength-giving, fat-producing elements known to the medical profession. Taken with meals, it mixes with the food and turns the sugars and starches into rich, ripe nourishment for the tis sues and blood and its rapid effect is remarkable. Reported gains of from ten to twenty-five pounds in a single month are by no means infrequent. Yet its action is perfectly natural and abso lutely harmless." Sargol is sold by G. A. Ciorgas and other good druggists every where and every package contains a guarantee of weight increase or .ioney back. Caution: —While Sargol has produced remarkable results in the treatment of 1 nervous indigestion and general stomach j disorders, it should not. owing to its remarkable flesh producing effect, be used by those who are not willing to increase their weight ten pounds or more.—Adv. CHARLES FROHMAN LEFT AN ESTATE OF $350,080 Most of Theatrical Producer's Fortune in Stocks—Only Star With Whom He Had Contract Is Biliie Burke— Did Not Leave a Will New York, May 14.—Charles Froh man left an estate valued at about $350,000, consisting mostly of stocks and bonds in various theatrical ven tures and business enterprises, accord ing to estimates made by well informed persons Wednesday.

'"Mr. Frohman did not leave a will," I said Mr. Gerber. "A diligent search lias 1 been made through his effects and none ! has been found. In view of this sit- I uation his brother, Daniel Frohman, will apply to the Surrogate for appoint- J ment as administrator and will ask that ! Mr. Hayman be associated with him. j '' Except for a farm up State Mr. ; Frohman held no real estate. He was j a stockholder in the New York Theatre j Company, which built the New York | Theatre.

New York, May 14.—As an abso lute refutation of the idea that the need of the people in Belgium for food | was more than adequately supplied, the Commission for Uelief in Belgium, 71] Broadway, yesterday gave out a list of the ships under its charter that have within the last week unloaded their car goes at Rotterdam or sailed from vari-; oils American ports for Rotterdam, j The figures show that eight ships carry-1 ing cargoes aggregating 47,492 tons lu.Ve discharged their cargoes from the | docks at Rotterdam.
