Overcoats at $20
How can we offer you more in Clothing than our competitors for the same
money?
P.ronuso we are manufacturing' retailers and our retail stores are the direct out
lets for our wholesale merchandise. They are conducted for your convenience and
to pay, not a retail profit, but a wholesale profit only. The Ordinary Ketailcr has
to add his percentage to the wholesale cost for his retail profit. We don't.
Why does our merchandies lead in style?
Because our retail stores are all in the larger cities where stylo is absolutely
demanded. The great majority of our competitors the wholesalers sell their
clothing in small country towns where style and fit ore not always considered so
e83pjitial. '
Why do" we know we make the best $20.00 Overcoats in this country?
Because all of our garments are made under one roof, in our own factory and
by the same hands; we sell more Overcoats at $40.00 than we do at $20.00. The
workmanship is the same on both, and the difference is a matter of fabrics.
And yet we guarantee all our fabrics.
Do your Christmas shopping NOW.

Kngcne D. Funk, president of the Na
tional Corn association, spoke of the alms
and purposes of the show and told of what
his association was doing and hoped to do.
In the course of the program greetings
'and felicitations from President Dial of
Mexico were read by C. C. Rosewater.
Manderson Compliments Wilson.
President Wattles called upon General
Charles F. Manderson, an old friend of
James Wilson, secretary of agriculture,
to say a few words In his behalf.
"He Is of our sister state and he knows
our wants. He has shpwn his. ability In
many spheres of activity until he is finally
secretary of agriculture, a position he
fills so admirably. No man was ever
better fitted for the position," said General
Manderson.
"Wa seem to be the plVneers, for we are
of a pioneer race. We pioneered with a
magnificent exposition ten years ago and
now we are pioneering with an expo
sition of broad educational lines. Last
year the products of our state were $U10,
imO.OOO and this year I look to see them
o over $750,000,000. '
The opening of the program was de
layed for a short time because of the
failure ot the instruments of the Mexican
National band to arrive.
Not being familiar with the ways of
railroad companies In the United States,
the band left Chicago "on their way to
Omaha with their Instruments reposing on
p truck on the station platform. As soon
eg the oversight was discovered, the Instru
ments were hurried after- the band and
arrived In tijfie for", th afternoon concert

of modern agricultural science In solving
economic problems Gurdon W. Wattles,
president opened the formal program of
the first day of the National Corn expo
sition. Mr. Wattles said In part:
The movement "back to the land" Is
world-wide. On a recent Jouiney around
the world In Japan, where a population ot
OO.OOO.Ouo occupies an area about the aize
of the stale of California, we found an
overwhelming sentiment for more land
and greater opportunity. The Japanese
were looking with longing eyes toward
Korea and Manchuria, and, with hope and'
expectation that by conquest of these ter
ritories, they might Becuro an outlet for
the Islands of their empire. In China, the I
more Intelligent men wer lonelnir for the I
time to come when the weak inn of their
government might be so strengthened as

crowded cities, but as yet this hope hm
not materialized, for the Chinese are still
clinging" to the old superstitions of an
absolute monarchy, which has been weak

tion. In Siberia, which we had been led
to believe was a barren land of snow and

from Ru.isla. We met Hundreds of cars
loaded with these ttnmlnrant. on their
way to find new homes on the rich, lands
of Siberia, which, in the past, have only
been used as prisons for convicts and
exiles. in Germany, Knxland, France,
Italy and Scandinavia this movement is on
In great fore. From these latter countries
annually come to tho United State and
Canada a Kreat army, seeking homes and
fortunes, either In the cities or on the
farms of the western hemisphere. Thin
movement to our country for some years
past has brought us an averane of 1.000,000
inhabitants per annum.
In the Ki'eat pastern cities and thickly

In this the richest r nrlcultural section of
the world. The problem today before this
country Is how to obtain preiter returns
from thrse lands, by better means of culti
vation and by more scientific methods In
the selection of setd and preparation of the
oil.
It Is true thnt the returns per capita to
hose engaged In farming pursuits In the
tiite of Nebraska during the last ten
ears have been greater than the profits
er capita to worklngmen in any other
're of emp'oyrwent among any other peo
l in the world. Hut how can these re
'irns be Increased? How can the same
and be made to yield one-half or even
ouble more In crops without great y

This Is a rrohlent of dollars and cents

this problem Is one of the purposes of the I
National Corn exposition.
In farming, the oldest business of which
we have any record, pel Imps less prog

industry. It Is true we have Improved
machinery, and the wooden plow and
sickle and the flail have been case aside
for more modern Implements, hut in ap

the preparation of the soil, in the breed
ing of hettca. seed and by cross-breeding
new and lietteT varieties we have hardly
begun In the great march of advancement
which lies ahead. A wizard In California
has by simple but scientific methods
brought Into exlstenee many new and val
uable varieties of fruits, flowers and
plants. In the animal kingdom by selec
tion our more progressive rnnchmen are
raising cattle and hogs worth double per
head the cuttle and hors that were pro
duced on the same ranches but a few
years ago. Hut there sre many problems
which perplex the farmer and ranchman

Any Woman Can
Have Beautiful Hair
j (From French Iltauty Monthly.)
I "No woman ahould use water upon her

, says M. Fournler, the loted French sci
entist. "Dry powder only should bS used.
Moisture causes the hair to loss its color
and in time become thin.
"Any woman desiring abundant, lus
trous hair should use a dry shampoo
very two or three days. Mix four ounces
of powdered orris root with four ounces i
of therox. Sprinkle about a tablespoon
ful of this mixture upon ths head; then
brush ths powder thoroughly through the
hair. This will keep It light and fluffy,
and beautifully lustrous. You will soon

HIS TESTIMONY NOT WANTED

Competent Witness In Case Inrolv-
ln Ills Wife Jloney In
t'olnmbns Bank.
ST. LoriS. Dec. 6. Dr. Loren B. Poxey
of Columbus, Neb., late today accepted
service to appear before the coroner's Jury
at the inquest of W. J. Erder, tomorrow.
Mrs. Doxey, alleged wife of Erder and
whom she was accused of murdering by
giving him arsenic, was reported by the
Jail physician tonight as being really 111.
Her condition rtts such that the Jailer
refused to allow her attorney to see her.
A formal statement Issued by Doxey to
day denied his wife married F.rder. The
statement admitted Mis. Doxey was In St.
Louis at the time she Is charged with being
Krder'a wife.
Circuit Attorney Jones, who will present
the Krder death to the Jury tomorrow,
does not want Dr. Doxey to appear before
the grand Jury or the coroner's Jury.
Dr. Doxey Is free to go where and when
he pleases, said Attorney Jones. "We do
not want him. He Is not a competent wit
ness against his wife for the grand Jury,
the coroner, or the court. If he went be
fore the grand Jury It might vitiate any
bill that body might find in the case of
his wife."
Dr. Warren's report states that In eleven
analyses of portions of Erder's body he
found .31 grains or white arsenic. The
material from which this poison was re
covered weighed 10.2.1 pounds. In his first
report Dr. Warren swore that the em
balming fluid used by Eider's undertaker
contained no trace of arsenic.

Mrs. Kate Erder, sister of the dead man,
furnished trfe proswutlng attorney's office
today with what may become Important
evidence. She turned over a letter from a
firm of attorneys ,ln Co'umbus, Neb., In
which It was stated that the records of a
bnnk there show that a draft for $2.70n,
drawn by Mrs. Dora K. Erder was re
ceived shortly after Erder's death In July.
This corrcspt.nds with the amount of In
surance Collected on Erder's life policy-
Dr. Doxey broke silence today and gave
an extended statement In defense of his
wife. In it he declared she was never
nuirrled to Erder, but that In May of 1WJ
she was In a hospital In. St. Louis. He
described many operations and illnesses
to' which she had been subjected and as
serted that the drugt, given her at those
times are responsible for the fact that she
is a neurasthenic. '

Stonl tise on Trial.
GRAND ISLAND, Neb.. Dec. 6 (Special
Telegram.) The case of the state against
Ernest Stout, alleging murder In the first
degree of Joseph Hicheson In September
lust, was taken up in the district court
this morning and the entire day was spent
In the work of selecting a Jury, with the
prospect ahead that at least the morning
session tomorrow will be occupied In that
task. Judge I'aul this afternoon ordered
a special venire of fifty talesmen. Most
of the Jurors, excused today for cause, were
dismissed becauae they had fixed opin
ions in the case or because of conscientious
scruples against capital punishment.
Stout's mother, Mrs. Huber. is here from
Oklahoma, and Stout's wife and Infant
daughter were in court this afternoon, as
al io a brother of the accused man. Stout
Is a young man while the victim of the
alleged murder was in the Ms. The de
fendant is alleged to have beaten Hiche
son to death with the butt end of a buggy
whip.
Milkmen Uooat Prices.
NKRRASKA :1TY, Neb., Dec. . (Spe-
clul.) The milkmen have given notice that
they will raise the price of their milk
from 7 to 10 cents per quart and cream
from 15 to 20 cents per pint. The price
of feed Is very high and they give this as
an excuse for the raise. Two milkmen
have sold their cows and gone out of busi
ness lately because, they claim, there Is no
moi.ey in the business.
The palate is almost tickled
with Scott's Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil. The stomach knows
nothing about it, it does not
trouble you there. You feel
it first in the strength it
brings; it shows in the color,
of check and smoothing out
of wrinkles.
, It was a beautiful thing to
y do, to cover the odious taste
of Cod Liver Oil, evade the
tax on the stomach, and take
health by surprise.
It warms, soothes, strength
ens and invigorates.

Almost before they could make a move th'

Tho effects of the explosion were felt
the entire length of the areaway, which

Windows were broken nnd fash blown out
In the Regent Shoe store. In this estab

"I smelled power very distinctly,'1 satd
Mr. Fox after he returned from the physi
cian's office. Dr. Conlan also say he found
stains In the wound which look like powder
marks. "I am positive that It was a powder
explosion of some kind."
