OUR STOVES
Have Come
For nearly a month we have been watching and
waiting for our delayed shipment of stoves. A J
carload of them arrived. The delay works to *
our customers’advantage, however. They have i
the pick of a full stock, whereas, in other stores 0
they have been more or less culled out already. 0
We have two special lines of heaters 0
The Black Diamond Hot Blast }
and
Taylor’s Radiator 0
We chose these lines because we believe they 0
are best. Taylor’s Radiator is something en-
tirely new in heaters. It will pay you to look £
into it. 0

Shoes for P.urtip Women.
"It seems to me,” said a plump
woman in a shoe store the other day.
“that the shoemakers ire greatly
lacking in enterprise in having found
no better place to .ace up i shoe than
right in front.
“Unless you happen to oe as thin
as a trolley pole, leaning over to lace
or unlace a shoe is a trying task, and
if you sit up and put one loot on th6
other knee it brings the laces in such
a position that you cannot see them,
and have to feel your way. Of course,
if you’ve got a maid to dress you,
you’re at liberty to get as stout as
you please, but if not, the matter is
no joke.
“I’ve asked several enoemakers
about this, and they say that the only
place where the shoe could be laced
with comfort would be on the inside
of the ankle, and if the laces should
be put there the eyelets cn one she
would knock against those of the
other. Nevertheless, i saw an actress
take oft her shoes on the stage in a
play the other night. They were laced
on the inside, and she performed the
operation easily and without, discom-
fort. If L could get such footwear I’d
be glad to buy it.”—Shoe Retsdler.
Origin of Lathes.
Nature, as well as necessity, moth
eied 'he invention of the lathe, the
aist of machine tools. It was built
of arii'.ally between two adjacent trees
near which ere.v a sprinvv sapling
Lathes "he it a:c .red to-ou., in some

Cures For the “0!ues’’
One woman said she had two cutes
for the “blues’’—that mysterious af-
fliction common to every woman and
a few men. One was to put on her
silk petticoat and best clothes; or if
she hadn’t anything very new, go out
and buy some unnecessary frippery,
such as a beconr’ng tulle ruche, an
adorable hat, or a ne v necklace. Thus
attfred, the second par-, of the cure
was to sail recklessly inu an expen-
sive tearoom, an eating place forbid-
den hv her purse, and entirely un
necessary on days of good cheer—
and order the biggest, choicest, costli-
est luncheon the^ bill of fare provided.
’It’s an expensive cure,” she said;
“but it never fails to work like a
charm.’’
Jiu-Jitsu Long Known in Europe.
A French teacher ol boxing points
out that an art of self-demnsr. approx-
imately equivalent to jiu-jitsu was
known in Europe in the seventeenth
century. Its principles are expounded
In a work by one Nicolas Peters, pub-
lished at Amsterdam in 11174, and bear-
ing the lengthy explanatory title:
‘The Art of Wrestling and how one
can protect oneself in all kinds of
quarrels ihat may occur; how one
can with agility and rapidity repel al/
unfair attacks and meet one’s adver-
sary with science." The work is illus-
trated. The author apparently a itici-
pated many of the cbaracter.etic
rrips of the Japanese exponents of j

Sleep and Memory.
Sev*.n hours of sleep is the mini-
mum amount required by the average
person, according to Prof. Weygand of
the University of Wurzburg. He as-
certained experimentally that reduc-
tion of the usual period of sleep by
three hours diminishes the power of
the memory by one-haif. Fasting, ho
found, had a much less injurious ef-
fect.

Chicago this week gathering in from among the

on the big tailoring houses, and these aie the
goods that Mr. Riggs has gone to Chicage to buy
