Any shoe manufacturer can make a shoe to
sell for $3.10. But there is just about one
that ; makes a $3.50 shoe. That one is the
Patriot. To make a shoe like the Patriot
requires too much skill for most manu-
faclurers It cost tco much for rest We're
satisfied with a small profit so long as
we can sell thsm as fast as factorv produces
them. The Patriot will bear ripping apart
but you will have a nice time ripping it. It
would reveal tho wire like stitching, the soft
wcarful leather, the excellent quality of lin-
ing, the skillful workmanship, the superior
finish the tough flexible sole leather.
Our Clothes Fit.
The three things that distinguish the clothes
Ave make are Fashion Fit and Workmanship.
We are proud of our record and will sustain
it with good garments. The Fall thinfl> art
ready, and we are getting plenty of orders.
One of the days you will appreciats beer
vitally you need a Fall suit. Our lilts is
ready for your kind inspection. Call and get
our prices.
Good Sorts of Hosiery.
I
The following items contain explicit
tion about being well hosed at the
possible expense, next to having the hosiery
given to you. There's sizes for men, wo-
men and children, and the box and stockings
mentioned are just the sort yoq will nesdfer
weeks to come. And you won't firni equally
low prices for such excellent qualities any
where eise.
When You Have an Oil Stove.
What do you care about wood? Lots of the
people who have bought oil stoves here tell
us that they plan to use them all winter,
even if wood does the wonderful and comes
down to reasonable prices. They find that
the oil stoves are economical and very practi*
cal. You use them when you wan t them
and t arn ,them out when you don't. Buy one
from us, they are neither smoky nor smelly.

A man is not a sinner because
he is an infidel; he is an infidel be-

Christmas Shopping al This
December ushers in tbe Christmas presents, To some it's an easy matter to
solve, but to many it's an arduous task, owing to their limited information
where to shop. You can put my Jewelery Store on your list with tbe assur-
rance that you will see most complete assortments at prices that will make
buying from Montgomery, Ward & Co., and Sears Roebuok & Co. seem an
extravagance. Among my numerous collection 1 make mention of the
TALKING MACH
It is an ideal Christmas present, ae it affords pleasure and entainment for every member of the family. It is not a toy, and the novelty
does not wear off. No entertainment equals music and the Victor Talking Machine liaB no equal as a means of producing it.
SAYINGS WHICH MADE SAM JONES
FAMOUS—SOMETHING
I *ou at
Theology is a food thing- It is
a good thing to stuff with sawdast
like tbe skin of a fish, to put in a
museum as a relie of antiquity*
In a Georgia town a number of
girls married men to reform thsm,
now the town is fall of Rttte whip*
poor will widows.
The greatest rascals are those
who ars [scrupulously honest. If
I see a man walk across tows to
pay a nickel, I watch him.
Whiskey is a good thing la its
place, and tbat plsss is in hell. If
I get there I will drink all I Jca«
get, but I don't do it bare.
The capacity of a woman for
making everybody about ^her un«
comfortable cannot be calculate!
by any known process of arithmet-
ic.
Tbe Christian who will do things
in New York that he would not
do at heme is a yery poor
Christain.
It takes less senee te criticso
than te do anything elss. There
are a great many critics ia tbe
asylum.
I don't think much of dignity.
My observation is that the more?
dignity a man has the nearer dead
be is.
There is more religion in laogh-
ing than erying. If religion con-
sists of crying, I have the best
boy in ths world.
When you find a man that is
first-class at some one thing, you
will find him pretty good for et-
er\ thing else.
If you tell me what you !ov
and what yon hate, I will toll yout
your character,
If the devil aver puts his foot
upon a woman once, eh
up any more.
