will be given and when the young

Rebuilt Overcoats
as everyone will enjoy what is to be
given.
Why pay $75.00 to $100.00 for a new ovei
coat when I can rebuild your old one for a fraction
of the price of a new one. After having it repaired,
cleaned and pressed you've got practically a new
coat at a nominal price. I am dyeing a great many
army overcoats in navy blue, dark brown and black.
They dye nicely. . Look over your winter clothes
now and have them put in shape to wear.

Consideration of the All-Important
Subject Fails to Get as Far
as Shantung Provision.
Washington.. Oct. 6. Considera
tion of the peace treaty in the sen
ate today did not reach the reading
of the printed text leading up to the
Shantung provision on which the
next fight will he made. The day's
program comprised four speeches,
with a small attendance and listless
interest in the proceedings.
Some senators, anxious to speed
up the treaty, had indicated that it
mignt be possible to jump right in
to discussion of the Shantung ques
tion with prospects of a vote within
the next few days. There was scarce
ly a reference to it, however, and as
the debate was general, no effort
was made to resume the reading so
as to bring the senate up to the
Shantung amendment, next on the
list for a vote.
Senator Hitchcock, leading the
administration fight for unamended
ratification, objected to a move to
set aside the treaty temporarily to
consider another matter, and in do
ing so insisted that the senate should
begin work on the pact earlier ,than
2 o'clock, the uual hour, at which
it has been called up.
Members of both houses of con
gress are counting on a recess about
the first of next month and as this
depends, of course, upon final dispo
sition of the treaty the suggestion
has been made by some" senators, it
was said, that the two parties en
deavor at separate conferences to
figure on how much actual talking
time will be required by both sides.
. As it seems to be admitted by all
that every senator knows now how
he will vote, regardless of future dis
cussion there is still a growing dis
position In some quarters not to pro
long the proceedings by speeches,
although democratic and republican
leaders unite in declaring that at
tempts to shut off speeches will not
be tolerated. What they seek, it is
raid, is a voluntary agreement cal
culated to hasten a vote.

PASTOR IS RETURNED

The members of the United Breth
ern church south of this city are
much pleased over the result of the
work of'the state conference of the

neva in returning to tho church. Rev.
E. H. Pontius, the present pastor.
Rev. Pontius has been very success
ful in his work in the church here

AUTO ACCIDENT AT
NOON HOUR TODAY
Young Lad Has Ann Broken and
Otherwisely Bruised when Hit
by Slow-Moving Car.
(rwn Tuesday's Ially.
Shortly before the noon hour jo
day, John, the young son of Mr. and
Mrs. A. B. Reed, residing on Lincoln
avenue, was quite severely injured
when lie was struck -by an automo
bile and knocked down with the re
sult that his right arm was broken,
several teeth knocked out and he was
otherwise badly bruised.
From the statements made of th'
accidtnt it seems that the lad was on
his way home from the Fifth ward
school and as he was crossing Lin
coln avenue, a large touring car driv
en by Frank Marshall came along
ava as John and. two little comrades
were standing near the roadside tin
enr was rlowed down Jy the driver.
0:u of the boys r.in across the roa 1
just in front of the slowing car au-J
as the machine drew near the two
boys by the roadside, the little Ree-l
boy attempted to cross the street
when the car was just a few feet
from him.
Seeing the position of the boy. Mr
Marshr.il turned the car toward tiu:
roadside in an attempt to save hit
ting him. but he was unable to avoid
it and the boy was struck glancing
ly by one of the front wheels, being
knocked down and having injuries
inflicted at noted.
From all the particulars, it was
clearly no fault of the driver of th
automobile as the car was running
at a very slow rate of speed when
the accident occurred and every ef
fort was made to avoid the accident
The residents in that section of the
city have reported the habit of the
children In dashing across the ave
nue in front of approaching automo
biles and it is fortunate that the list
of accidents has not been greater.
What's all this talk
about "SATISFY"?
r;
tfftfeflilATISFY" What does it mean?
-Iftff no n the ordinary sense, of course,
but in the smoke-sense?
Know wliat a drink of cold water does for
your thirst ?
Sure ! " It touches the spot"
Well, that's what Chesterfield cigarettes do for
your smoke-hunger. They touch your "smoke
spot" They let you Know you're smoking. They
satisfy.
And satisfy is something that no other cigarette
can give you regardless of price,
Because the Chesterfield blend fine Turkish
and Domestic tobaccos is the manufacturers
private formula. Unlike a patent, it cannot be
copied or even closely imitateU.
Light up a Chesterfield, sometime today, and
see how quickly your smoke -sense will put the
O.K. on satisfy." . k
