his car threaded Its wa ythrough the
traffic of the loop district and sped
out Sheridan Road few of those on
the streets recognized him. He made
nn speech here, but early in the day
he made his first rear platform ad
dress at Huntington. Ind. No for
mal reception or demonstration had
been organized here, as it was said
the nominee preferred to have his
visit here devoted solely to his per
sonal call on the general.
Today's meeting between the sen
afor and General Wood was the sec
ond since the convention. Nearly
a month ago, the general went to
Marion to pay bis respects and to
pledge his support, and today they
are understood to have renewed thtir
discussion of politics to insure solid
progressive support for the republi
can ticket. Neither of them, how-
ever, had any statement to make ex
cept to say that the call had strength
ened the good relations existing be
tween them.
At Huntington there were several
hundred waiting for him.- and after
he had shaken hands with manv of
them he yielded to demands for a
speech, which was cheered by the
crowd, which included many railway
employes.
THE BUSINESS OF
BEING REAL FUNNY
And It Is a Business with Byron G.
Harlan To Appear in Recital
Here Next Monday.

liyron G. Harlan's present func-ion-
in this world is to entertain
people with his delightful rendition
of clever songs. But in spite of his
amusing ways on the stage, Mr. Har-
an is decidedly a serious "business
man."
He didn't start to study music till
ie was twenty-four years old. Then
ie left his home and went to Chi-
ago. He secured an engagement
with an ojera company and then ap
peared in "A Texas Steer." It was
right here that Mr. Harlan's busi
ness ability came to the fore. So he
started a company of his own and
became a producer himself. Mr.
Harlan believes firmly that a musi-
al training is one of the best prepa
rations in the world for the perfect-
ng of the business mind.
And so Mr. Harlan has proved for
he makes a serious business of be
ing funny. The enormous success of
Collins and Harlan as "America's
Favorits Entertainers." is proof
enough cf Mr. Harlan's business sense
Collins and Harlan will give one!
cf their inimitable performances at
the Paimele theatre in Plattsmouth
on Monday night, September 13th.
They promise to trot out all their
funniest songs for the delectation of
the residents of this city.

The average man today is literally puzzled about his clothes buying. It
u?ed to be that when he needed a suit or overcoat he went to his clothier or his
tailor and picked it out without any hesitation. But
now it is different. He has heard so many wild rumors
about clothing prices going up and clothing prices com
ing down that he's puzzled to know whether to buy
now or wait. Our advice to you is that if you need
the clothes buy them now. We do not look for clothes
to go higher, neither do we see any possible chance
for them to be lower. You can buy some kinds of
suits for $30 or $35, but a good standard make of
clothes will cost right around $50, and will continue
to cost that till labor and other commodities come
down. You'll not make anything by waiting.
