9 SHOE. WHIMS
Almost every man has Shoe vVhims of his
own.
Nothing irritates him more than being urged
to buy a totally different kind of shoe from those he
wants , simply because the Shoe Store in question
doesn't carry his favorite kind.
" We can please nearly every man with Shoes.
Not all- that would be impossible , but , at least , you
won't be talked into bad or unsuitable Shoes.
The Choice of
Good Shoes
t
here is both exceptionally and surprisingly large.
They are bettl.r , by a dollar or more , than any other
Shoes you can find at the price. The spring Styles )
await your coming.

TOO MUCH nAI'l'
Fisherman report the appear-
ance of a strange animal that bas
frequently been seen at points
along the Ncmaha south of town.
While the creature seems to ap-
pear different to each individual
bcholderall agree that its appear-
alice is so frightful as to strike
terror to the hearts of the bold-
'
est fishermen even in some instances -
stances having caused them to
abandon their tackle and make a
bee line for town. As some describe -
scribe it , the animal might be a ,
lynx or wildcat while others are .
sure that it lives part of the time
in the water. One man says it
has a slender body five feet long
and a head like a hog. Another . :
man is equally possitive that it is i . '
a
a young sea serpent.

There is no doubt however , but .
that a strange animal has been ) I .
