We do to you them recommend.
For they will treat you as a friend.

As any prices dare to be.
Your wife will never heave a sigh.
Because the prices are too high.

Perhaps those furs would suit your
Or else t’will bo a new shirt waist;
We’ve underclothing here galore.
You've bought some good ones—
buy some more.
We've suits, and hats, and caps and
cloaks,
Socks and ties and hose and yokes;
Odd pants we have, also the vests.

Or Cora. Ada. .Fern or Bond.

era house next Tuesday evening.
Feb. 28th.
The plot of Just A Woman’s Way,
which will appear at the Egbert Op-
era house next Tuesday evening,
Feb. 2S deals with the struggles of
a voung wife with radical views as
to the sanctity of the marriage vow-
in defending her home and husband
against the wiles of a scheming ad-
venturess. who, for a while, seems
triumphant. During the action of
the play, which finally brings the
true wife a hard won victory, extre-
mely strong situations occur that
hold the attention of the audience
until the drop of the final curtain.
A humorous little love story running
through the play, between two very
enthusiastic young people, furnishes
a pleasant vein of comedy and re-
lieves the play from too great pa-
thos.
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
Saint Valentine, I pray of you,
Bring me a sweetheart, kind and true;
A woman handsome, healthy, wise.
With smiling face and pleasant eyes,
A woman who can sew and cook,
Can fit a dress, or write a book:
A housewife, careful, chaste and neat —
A helpmate with a temper sweet.
She should talk—just enough—you know.
Not rapidly, nor yet too slow;
And in a v oice so mild and kind,
That hearing it will soothe my mind
When 1 go home at night to her,
With troubles which my soul bestir
To worry, that would kill a cat,
Or send a preacher on a “bat.’
1 know my prayer is hard to grant,
Its Chances for fulfillment scant;
And yet I can not help but pray
That you, good Saint, will find a way
To coax some angel from the kies,
Who, loving, prudent, chaste and wise,
Will make a heaven—home—! or me,
And set me from this longing free.
For I have led a lonely lilt'.
Without a helpmate, cook and wife,
For years, because 1 could not find
A helpmate suited to my mind;
One who would help me work 1
Be pleasant, and yet be my slave;
One who would love me on the spot,
Obey and honor—and lor what.
For what she’d get to eat and wear.
Perhaps some love, a little care;
A dress and new hat, twice a yew
(She'd have to ask for them with fear) ;
And these things given grudgingly.
For all she’d have to do and be—
Saint Valentine, it makes me blush;
Turn down my prayer and bid me bash!

The republican organ feels peeved
because the citizens have taken It
upon themselves to close the joints
of Chandler and lament that sub-
scriptions are being asked to prose
cute bootleggers, adding that "we
have officers to enforce the law."
The last part of the statement is
true, very true. We also had offi-
cers last year and the year before,
and. if I mistake not. some of the
same officials that now are employed
to prosecute these same vlolaters.
What was the result? Open joints
and whiskey sold openly. Since the
advent of the Community club what
has been the result? Partitions In
joints have disappeared and "no
whiskey” signs are stuck up. What
did it? The assistant county attor-
ney in a speech before the Com-
munity club gave that body the sole
credit. The club is only carrying
out the plans decided upon Borne
time ago. How far their close-up
order has been obeyed cun be well
