MOISTURE

Buch was the case In the vicinity of

Into Sunday night,, and came in blasts
and continued all day Monday, the
gusts reminding one of the "outbursts
of Everett True." The weather was
not cold, tho snow wet and soon

"Wihen the Shoe
Fits
"The shew which fits both tho foot
and the frotJk is the shoe of enduring
satisfaction," pays Lo Costume Royal,
the fashion magazine, in the October
number, "No matter how harmon
ious -the leather may be with the ma
terial of tho frock; no matter how at
tractive tho design, how appropriate
to the costume; no matter any qual
ity if it is not dirtictly connected with
tho virtue pf comfort.
"A source of courage for these di
rect statements lies in a tiny wrinkle
of pain. Everyone has seen that poor
tottering woman who Is balanced up
on uncertain heel with her feet
squeezed into pathetic lumps and her
forehead' crumpled Into wee wrinkles.
Not that every woman sliould be firm
ly planted flatly upon a low Heel, but
rather upon that arch of comfort
which is necessary to her correct
support and which is appropriate in
design to the frock she wears.
"Many women have avoided com
fortable shoes, thinking them unat
tractive, and have suffered untold
misery for tho sake of a desired ef
fect. Recently, however, a skilled
craftsman, who knows not only the
needs of a foot but realizes as well
the importance of a smart effect, has
doslgned shoes which aro tho last
word of tho mode and a source ot
eternal comfort.
"No longer need a woman desirous
of comfort go tramping grimly about
in shoes aparently built to support
tho law of gravitation. Absolutely
chic in every detail, in a senso to
please t'o most fastidious, wearer,
those ne " shoes of the mode aro a
perpetual tribute to tho art of a good
designer. Of soft, durable leather,
each shoo Is excellently made with an
arch which keeps tho position of the
foot In Its proper placo, Instead of
leaving Is suspended above or f t
toned against tho solo of tho shm,
a condition which In either caso hol''
a pernicious effect. Nor Is tho shnpe
of tho shoo awkwardly rounded "Into
a bulging toe, but kept in a graceful
lino with tho foot. In such subtleties
of design lies tho success of this foot
wear." Tho name of this deslrablo shoo is
attached to tho Illustrations accom
panying tho nbovo article In Costume
Royal. It Is tho CANTILEVER SHOE.
Corno and seo how well tho Canti
lever Shoo fits and looks on your foot.
Let us demonstrate why It Is so com-
fortablo and so enjoyable.

The managers of tho Platte River

have set the date for the second an

25 Uils year. The show will be given
on the same grounds as last year al
though strong inducements have been
offered to take it to a larger place.
Tho plan of the management Is to af
ford .the people a chance to get out
in tho open, away from the hot and
dusty towns and bo where there is
plenty of puro water from flowing
springs and where every one can see
tho show in nature's own show
ground. There is no place near any
of the cities where 2,000 head of cat
tle could bo shown along with 150 or
200 head of horses. Sutherland

After working CO years In steel

the American Steel and Wire company.
He started to work before the Besse

were invented.
Looking backward over his life,
Qullty is nmased most at the way trav
eling cranes and other machinery have
relieved human muscles.
He says: "The men have more
brains than they used to."

MAN OF FAITH AND LEARNING
i
L. & S. Groceteria.
Orlgen Considered One of the Great
eat of the Early Church Fathers
Upheld Christian Faith.
Orlgen, surnamed Adnmantlus, who
lived from 185 to t54 A. D., Is con
sidered hy some authorities as the
greatest of the early church fathers.
Alexandria, In Egypt, the great neat
of leurning of the time, Is thought
to have been his birthplace. Ho was
a teacher and deep student of phi
losophy and of the Scriptures, and
he became a great defender of the
Christian faith. His literary produc
tions were numerous nnd several havo
come down to the modern world,
among them being a treatise on theol
ogy, a few sermons or discourses of
that nature, parts of commentaries on
the Gospels of St. Matthe'w nnd St.
John and St. Paul's Epistle to the
Romans. His greatest work la his
defense of Christianity against the at
tacks In the writings of Celsus, an
Eplcureau philosopher of the Second
century. Celsus' work Is not extant,
hut the character of It Is made clear
In Orlgen's refutation, which contains
many quotations, and Origen'B line of
argument Indicates dearly the line of
attack followed by Celsus. The at
tacks upon Christianity by many crit
ics are simply repetitions of Celsus'
objections, which Orlgen answered
about seventeen hundred years ago.
Where Dullness Moves Slowly.
Business methods are Invariably
slow In tho Near East, according to
Miss Grace Willis who has returned
recently from a period of service with
the Y. W. C. A. in Constantinople,
Stutnbout and Uelrut. "It take at
least a half a day to deposit a check
and even longar to draw one out,"
says Miss Willis. "The general con
dition thut exists In business houses
is undoubtedly due to tho fact that
bo many nationalities, each with their
own way of doing things, are gathered
under one roof. The girls of the Near
East are particularly keeu for busi
ness courses and there Is a tremen
dous demand In the many commercial
houses for well-trained clerical work
ers nnd stenographers. 1 consider that
when, from the business courses given
by the Y. W. C. A., efficient business
women have been turned out after
nine months' training, a remarkablo
piece of work hus-been accomplished."
