    Value giving is the one
thing we set our minds to with resolution
here; we're determined
that the man who spends
his money in this store
shall get more value for
it than he can get else
where. We buy for q u a 1 i ty
rather than for low
prices. We sell them
with that in view; how
much can we give for the
price, rather than how
big a margin of profit we
can make.
Just now of course ov
ercoats are the chief mat
ter of interest to you.
Here are the latest and
best models double col
lars and shawl collars
made in belted back
styles, raglans, rain
coats, in all the new
fabrics.

Some Pointers on the Seed Ques
tion That Will Prove
Beneficial.
From Wednesday's Dally.
Is that seed corn picked yet?
Really, it should have boon picked
throe, weeks ago. Hut during the
last two weeks the germinating
power has probably not been in
jured in the least, and if you put
the oars in a dry, cool, airy place,
where the ears will not touch each
otner, ami where rats and mice
cannot get at them, you will al
most surely have seed corn which
will germinate to 100 per cent
next spring.
Over much of our territory the
fall weal her has been unusually
wet. It is especially important,
therefore, that the seed corn, as
soon as picked, be placed where it
will dry out rapidly. An airy at tie
is a splendid place, the windows
being kept open on the warm, dry
days, and closed on the cold, wet
days. The corn is not put in piles
in this altie, but immediately on
being picked is hung up, each ear
to itself, or put in seed corn racks
or on a seed corn tree. A seed
corn tree is easily made by nail
ing a live-inch post, or a ixi to a
two-inch board about two feet
square, or any other platform
which is large enough to hold it
upright. Then every few inches
on the upright post, finishing
nails are driven in rows. The
seed corn is then bung up merely
by pushing the butts over the
finishing nail".
Usually it is not necessary lo
use a lire to dry out seed corn.
Hut sometimes in the cold, wet
season, it may pay to keep a small
lire going part of the lime. Do
not let the temperature run much
over CO degrees, or you may spoil
the germination by causing the
moisl, new corn to sprout.
Remember that after corn is
once thoroughly dried out, it will
stand any amount of freezing, but
that while it is wet, a few degrees
below freezing will often destroy
the germinating power. Especially
is this I rue if I he corn has been
kept iu a warm, moisl place, and
the germ has just started lo
sprout. Hy looking at the outside
of the kernel, you cannot tell
whether or not this has happened.
You can be sure that it has not
happened by keeping I be corn in
a dry, cool, airy place where the
ears do not touch each other.
t'rom Wednesday's Dally.

OH PEARL STREET
WILL INSTALL ELECTRIC
LIGHTS AT NEW HOI
From Wednesduv'H Dully.
The grading on Pearl street for
the new paving is being rushed
along in good shape and the
street will be in shape in a few
days for the work of laying the
new pavement to begin. The
curbing is about all in and the
street already presents a much
improved condition and it will
make a mighty nice looking street
when completed and will add
greatly to the value of the prop
erty situated on that thorough
fare. The streets of 1'laltsmouth
are being put in good shape as
fast as the city can afford to do
the work and is in great contrast
lo the policy that was formerly
employed in the street work. The
city administration and the coun
cil deserve, great credit for the
manner in which they have labor
ed for the improvement of our
streets.

me and now I can do any kind of
work. I cheerfully recommend
them to my friends." For sale by
