TO THE LOVERS OF THE BEAUTIFUL:
TTTyTE hereby extend you an invitation to visit our piano warerooms
Saturday. We shall have on display about 75 pianos, pur
chased from different factories. These pianos were especially con
structed to show the piano maufacturers the advancement made in the
art of piano making, at their annual convention which lately convened
in Richmond, Va. If you enjoy real art; if you enjoy tuneful music,
you will not fail to take advantage of this invitation.
HAY DEN BROS.
FROM FACTORY TO USER
Tho manufacturers who exhibited in Richmond, not caring to ship the pianos back to their factories, disposed
of them to different dealers at a small fraction of the cost of manufacturing. "We, among others, were fortunate in
having a representative at this convention who purchased about 75 of the leading makes. As we bought, so shall we
sell, below the factory's regular price. Our warerooms are crowded with high grade standard pianos, and we urge tho
prospective piano purchaser before purchasing elsewhere to investigate our wondrously low prices and remarkably
easy terms. Every piano we sell is sold with a written guarantee your money back if you are not satisfied. We urge
you to accept this invitation for Saturday because you will be pleased. "We do not expect to make Saturday a large
sales day, although if you are in the market we can guarantee you a greater bargain than you can get elsewhere.

MILLIKAN'S ELECTRIC ION
Nature of tho Discovery Reported
by a Chicago Inlverslty
Professor.
Prof. n. A. Mllllkan of the University of
Chicago, a man young In years, baa dis
covered after four years of study that for
which scientists for ages have been looking.
Prof. Mllllkan ha discovered the ion of
electricity.
The Ion of electricity Is the smallest, the
moat minute particle or atom in the 'mys
terious electrical charge of which the sci
entists of the world know so little. While
they have been atfle to harness this power
ful mysterious force, they have admitted
freely that they do not know very muoh
about it, what It la or from whence it
cornea
As A result of the discovery of Mllllkan
the world today Is much nearer than ever
before to the aotual discovery of electricity.
The unknown haa been reduced to the atom
and the atom haa been measured and ob
served, not' once but many times In the
course of the experiments.
Prof. MUUkan's great discovery waa
made known to the members of the Sigma
Chi fraternity, of which he Is a member.
In a formal statement to the membera of
the fraternity Prof. Mllllkan said:
"We have succeeded in Isolating an In
dividual ion, and holding It under observa
tion for an indefinite length of time an
hour or more if desired.
"We have been able to give a tangible
demonstration that the correctness of the
view advanced many yeara ago that an
electric charge la not a homogeneous some
thing a strain In the ether or an 'Im
ponderable fluid' spread uniformly over
the surfao of tha charged body, but that
It haa a definite granular structure con
sists in fact of a definite number of specka
or atom of electricity exactly allka, pep
pered over the surface of the charged body.
"It followa, of course, that an eleotrio
current which 1 simply a charge in mo
tion, consists of a movement of these atoms
of electricity through or over the conduct
ing body.
"This is not asserting anything about the
ultimate nature of electricity, but la merely
pushing the unknown down Into theae ulti
mata electrlo unit or atoms. As a matter
of fact we are pretty certain that all ma
terial stoma contain as constituents these
ultimate eleotrio atoms, and it la the vogue
now to surmise that these electrical atoms
are the ultimate unlu out of which all
matter 1 built up.
"We have sucoeeded In making a very
precise measurement of the value of this
ultimate or elementary electrical charge
and find It to be t.UxlO.10 absolute leo
troatatlo units. We think this value can
not be In error by more than one-half of
1 per cent
W have been able to bring forward
new, direct and most convincing evidence
of the correctness of the klnetlo theory of
matter, for we have not only 'shown
directly that a moWoul of air la In rapid
(notion, but we have meaaured tha order of
magnitude of It energy of agitation and
find it to agree with the computations
based upon the kinetic theory, !
"We have been able to prove that the
great majority of the ion or an Lunlaed gas
of both lMyjw3i
one single elementary electrical. dlHChargo,
but we have strong evidence that aome of
these tons carry multiples of the elemen
tary charge.
"Our results demonstrate in a new way
that the negative. Ion In air is considerably
more mobile than 'is the positive ion this
meana that its velocity of agitation Is
greater and that it moves faster under the
Influence of an electrical field.
"Our results show that the law of fall
of a droplet through a desisting medium,
commonly known as Stokes' law, breaks
down for droplets whose radius la less
than .00018 centimeter. The resulta further
show In Just what way this law breaks
down.
"In brief, the method by which all theae
results have been obtained Is as followa:
We blow a cloud of fine oil or mercury
drops by means of an atomizer, and intro
duce one of these drops through a pinhole
into the spaces between the plates of a
horizontal air condenser.
"The droplet there catches one or more
of the ions whl:n normally exist In air or
which have been produced in the spaoe
between the plate by any of the uaual
Ionising agenta like radium or Xrays. The
time of fall of this droplet through a meas
ured distance is observed when no electri
cal field exists between the platea, then a
field of strength between 1,000 and 8,000
volt per centimeter is thrown on and the
time of rise of the droplet under the in
fluence of thla field through the same dis
tance Is again measured.
"This operation is repeated and the
speeds checked en indefinite number of
times, or until the droplet catchea a new
ion, when It speed under the influence of
the field instantly changes, though the
speed under gravity remains constant
'From the sign and magnitude of the
change In speed the algn and exact value
of the change carried by a captured ion ia
determined. The air in a single observa
tion need not exoeed one-third of 1 per cent
From the valuea of the speeds observed
all of the conclusions above may be directly
deduced." Chicago American.

BELATED GUEST FILES A KICK
What Happened to a Man who
Started Late and Arrived
Early.
"I went out to dinner the other night,"
reminlscently said the man who had Just
succeeded In lighting his cigar with the
third match. "In fact, I went out to din
ner . in such a whole-souled, enthusiastic
way I haven't recovered yet!
"You see, the Walworths, who live at a
big family hotel, Invited ua out on a Thurs
day night for dinner and the dance follow
ing. The dances always are dress-up af
fairs, and my wife reminded me in the
morning that I- must get home early from
the office in order to surround myself with
my evening clothes. I nearly broke my
neck to do so. My collar button rolled away
only twice and I managed to find the
hooks on the back of my wife's gown shu
had a brand new party dress so we ar
rived only half an hour late.
"We went right upstairs' to the Wal
worths' suite and tapped on the door. There
was no answer. Then I knocked bard.
Nothing happened.
" 'Well, I think that's queer,' said my
wife. She wa anxloua to get some powder
on her nose and waa irritable. She said
she'd wait there while I went down to the
desk to Inquire about our host
"The clerk said the Walwortha were in
at dinner. I made him repeat the state
ment which he did, distinctly and calmly.
He seemed utterly unmoved by the situa
tion. When I got my breath and told him
to have my name aant in he seemed dub
ious. He said Mr. Walworth didn't like
to be disturbed when he was In. the dining
room, but If I Insisted
"I told him In a carefully repressed tone
that I did insist
"Presently Mr. Walworth came out Ho
came with an air of irritated surprise,
which was hard to beat. He greeted me
with politeness and then remarked that he
and Mrs. Walworth were within fifteen
minutes of finishing dinner, and would 1
take the evening paper and amuse myself
until
"I think my face must have halted him
there, for he trailed off into nothing and
finally blurted out, "Say, what the dickens
do you want anyhow T"
"I blew up then. 'Wantl' I roared, letting
my overcoat fall back so he might see my
expanse of shirt front 'What the deuce
do you suppose I want? Do you think I
traveled away down here Just for the
pleasure of gazing upon your countenance?
I want dinner, you unmitigated chump!
Didn't you ask me down? And upstairs
in the hall, outside your door, is my wife,
patiently waiting, unless she ha died from
hunger elnca I left bar there!"

the desk and roared. Tou thought tt was

soothingly. 'Well, it happens to be Wednes

The United Cigar Stores wouldn't last six months in this
country without a sound reason for their existence.
We know that we must always give more for the money than
anyone elsethat's the "United Idea" that's the only way chain .
store concerns can succeed if they don't do that they fail.
You see chain store concerns succeeding in many lines of
business; the reason is simply that they bring the consumer right
up to the manufacturer and give him more for his money than he
can get any other way Remember That!
Better cigars for your money is what the United
Cigar Stores mean to you Remember That !
The United Stores retail over 300,000,000 cigars a year at?
wholesale prices a million cigars a day. The output of several
large factories, goes over our counters directly to the smoker at an
immense saving to him. Our customers get one-third more from
us, cigars at least one-third better that's why there are hundreds
of successful United Stores constantly increasing in volume and
number. We have found that merit always wins.
We want you to try our cigars. Whether you buy one cigar
or a box you buy at the thousand price Remember Thatl
Here are a few illustrations:

We sell a cigar at 3 for 25c that many of our customers claim

We have all kinds of cigars which we retail at wholesale prices
from 2c each to 20c each, and in addition we aim to carry in each
city all brands having a local reputation for quality so that smokers
can buy anything they wish from us and save money.

occasion.
" 'The Joke,' said I, 'is on me. Come on
we'll go out to tho country club and have
dinner!'
"Then Mrs. Walworth got Into the game.
'What!' she cried, 'and I in a shirt waist
and tailor suit and Jessie In all those
things!'
"Well, finally the girls compromised.
We went up to Walworths' rooms, and,
while Jessie toned down her gorceousness,
Mrs. Walworth began sticking things on.
Jessie took' off her Jeweled bandeau and
donned Mrs. Walworth' turban and prom
ised to keep on her wrap, which was only
mildly hilarious. Mrs. Walworth wor her
new spring hat, a bunch of violets and
some extra chains and pins to help out
her plain tailor suit, and Walworth Just
had to grin and bear his buslnesa clothes.
"We couldn't get a train, so Walworth
phoned for a taxi, and when tt came it
was In charge of a pirate, who confided
that he waa only a repair man, and, while
our lives were safe in his hands, he didn't
know a thing about the way to get to the
club. So Walworth had to sit out In front
with the driver.
"When we got there we met everjllvlng
soul we knew, and each one took a sep
arate stare at our Incongruously garbed
party.
"Coming home the locomotive broke
down and we had to walk across a stub
ble field to a street car.
"After all that Walworth and his wife
had the nerve to ask sweetly if we weren't
going to gu through, all that dress agony
again and come to the dance the next
night! I'm afraid the Walworths have no
aense of humor!" Chicago Newa.
THE MULE AS AN ARTIST
Marvelous Genius of Its Brash Ex
hibited la "An Adriatic
8 onset."
There has never been an art exhibi
tion without the presence of a number
of chronic kickers; but the case of the
mulo who painted a picture for a Paris
exhibition is probably unique. It seems
that a picture of an Italian sunset signed
with an artistic name, waa painted
by a brush tied to the tail of a donkey.
It is not probable that the picture dif
fered essentially from some of the re
markable effects of modern Impressionists,
who resort to any expedient to gain the
end desired. A celling was decorated by
means of a sponge sosked In certain oils
and thrown against the celling. The fam
ous case of Whistler va Kuskln will be
recalled. WhlsUer had painted "Fhe Fall
Ing Rocket," spatter of Indeterminate stars
against nocturnal blackness. Ruskln was
caustic He declared that Whistler had
the Impudence to charge two hundred
guineas for 'flinging a pot of paint In the
public' face." The Jury waa out an hour,
and awarder the artist on farthing by
way of damages.
It Is hsrd to tell what soma of the bl

clusion that bloba of pink and green are
