In September we announced an oiler of Four Thousand Dollars in Cash Prizes to the 43 women, who, after actual test by wear, would give the best reasons why the "Dorothy Dodd" phoe is superior to all others in the fol lowldg respects: 1st. The Style of a "Dorothy Dodd." 2nd. The Faultless Fit of a "Dorothy Dodd." 3rd. The Extreme Lightnessof a"Dorothy Dodd." 4th. The Arch-Supporting Feature of a ' 'Dorothy TVirirl " This arch-supporting feature relieves half the 1JUU1, wearlne of walking. 5th. The Flexibility of a "Dorothy Dodd." The response has been truly wonderful. The many thousands of replieB received from wearers in all parts of the country are evidence of the strong hold the "Dorothy Dodd" shoe has taken on the tiouular favor. The character of thous ands of these replies is proof, also, that the "Dorothy Dodd" Shoe has filled along felt want in giving to women a shoe combining that "feminine" style that appeals to the refined taste, a "faultless fit" and a degree of comfort never before experienced. This competition closed January 1st, and the ar ticles received were submitted to the "Delineator," to Judge and award the priies. They have ordered the prizes distributed as follows: Prize Winners Name Residence Shoe Dealer 1st $1,000 2nd 750 3rd 500 4th 400 6th 300 6th 200 7th 150 8th 100 9th 80 10th 70 Uth 60 12th 60 13lb 40 Uth 35 15tb 30 18tb 25 17th 20 18th 15 19th 10 20th 10 21st 10 22nd 10 23rd 10 24th 10 25th 10 26th 10 27th 10 28th 10 29th 6 30th 81st 82nd 33rd 84th 85tb 3th 37th 38th 39th 40th 41st 42nd 43rd Miss May Newman MIbs K.

Last woek we received a letter from one of our subscribers, who had boon a llttlo In arrears, and in his letter of apology fol- the arrearago said t "I suppose an editor Is like the preaoher, The people never pay him until everyone else Is paid, or thoy happen to collect an old dobt that thoy never expected and it makes them feel so good that they go and pay their sub scription. It is ten years this tall since I left home for college and during that time I have read every issue of The Star. I look for lu weekly visit as regular as I used to go to see my best girl. I often cast aside my regular work to read its pages and there has boon times, yes many, (and neither am I ashamed to say It,) when I have yearn ed to go back to my old home, that I have read the advertisements. On who has never resided for any length of time away from his birthplace oan not exactly appreciate such a feeling. In reality the experience Is similar to that expressed by Tennyson who said : 'Tls better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at ail.' For the most precious memories that come to one are those which carry us back to boyhood days, and we again live over the scene of our early life and see tho faces of those wo had learned to love."

Chorrytree Grange No. 284, Venango Co., Initiated 63 members and reinstated IS during the year ending Sept. 30, 1002. Mark It down that the Grange Is growing. If It Is not growing In your state or neighborhood, It Is plain that you are not In the most progressive region. In many sections the notion still pro- vails that the Grange Is the arrowed enemy of tho middle men. This Is not correct. Tbey oppose only a surplus of middle-men, endeavoring to shorten, as much as possible, the route from the producer to the consumer. Membors of Concord Grange No. 1141, P. of H. Del., Co., Pa., feel that the past your has boon a most successful one, we having Initiated twenty-two candidates during that time. Never in the history of our organization which has boon seven years, have we Initiated as many members In the same length of time. Our membership now numbers one hundred and twelve.
