We are willing that you Judge our entire boys' department by the suits we offer you at $5.00.
OTHER FOLKS CAN BUY AS GOOD SUITS AS OURS FOR $5.00 THE POINT IS, THEY DON'T.
Our buvlne ability is partially responsible for this condition. But, without
considering that, it is the quality of workmanship we insist upon getting
that makes them so good. Thousands of fine hand stitches mold the shape
and keep It through the rough-on-clothes weather and the hard usage it is
bound to get during a boy's vacation time. Many mothers who already
know of them from experience say they are equal to other suits that have
cost them $6.00. And most of them have two pairs of pants to match.
Ages from eight to sixteen yeaTs.

tan, tub-tested materials, with either
military or sailor collars and neat

Captain Kenney of the Providence (R. 'I.)
tugboat J. 3. Packard, thought he saw a
ghost when James Riley walked Into the
office where the captain tat filling out a
report of Riley's euppos.d demise.
"Speak to me, Jim," gasped the captain.
vsy, sum'n right away," till I see II it's
What's the matter with you this even
ing? queried Riley. "You seem nervous
d obf unth ated. What Is that document
v are filling out so carefully T"
This Is my report to the United States
Inspectors of your disappearance from
your scow." Captain Kenney hove a long
sigh of relief and tore up the document,
after expressing his pleasure and relief
In the happy outcome of an occurrence
off Hog island shortly after midnight,
when Riley, in charge of a loaded mud
seow In tow of the Packard, fell over
IMard, started to swim for the shore a
mild away, to be rescued almost Im
mediately by the tug Howell, which was
close by.
All tugs, scows, captains, and deck
hands concerned are at work on the
deepening of the channel, atttendlng to
the transportation of the mud lifted by
the great dredging machines working be
tween Pomhain and Sabin to the dump
ing grounds near Hog Island.
Tug Packard had two scows In tow
when Riley fell overboard. Michael Sllne,
on the other scow, shouted an alarm and
waved his lantern, but failed to gain the
attention of any of the Packard's crew.
Then, as the tug Howell was close by,
Sllne shouted to It and swung his lan
tern wildly. Captain Sullivan swept the
water with the searchlight, and quickly
discerned Mr. Riley, who was blithely
swimming toward Papooseaquaw, hum
ming a little tune, as he cleft his cheerful
way through the moisture. He almost
wept when he was rudely taken from
the cooflng salt water, In which he used
to live about half the time when a lad
In Fall River.
When he went overboard he held In
both hands an Iron dumping bar welgh
fifty pounds, with which he was trying
to let the bottom doors falU-out of the
scow' to rid It of Its load of mud, when
the implement slipped, causing him to
lose his balance, and ha also slipped
overboard. Finding the iron somewhat
embarrassing company In the water, Mr.
Riley let go his grasp, after I; had car
ded him down to the bottom. Vhen he
rose to the top like a cork, as he is roly
poly and fatlike, and began his swim
toward the green fields of Papoososquaw.
When the Packard arrived back at Its
wharf In Providence Sunday morning,
Captain Kenney learned for the first time
that Riley was missing. No one could
tell him for sure that the Howell had
picked up his man, and he was much
disturbed In the belief that Riley had gone
to Davy Jones' locker. -
After being in suspense for a long time
he finally decided to make out the formal
report of the loss of the man, and was
so engaged when he was Interrupted as
set forth above. Providence Journal.

The general public when visiting tourist
agencies gets glimpses of the number and
variety of handsome folders and pamphlets
Issued by railway and steamship companies
at this season of the year. These glimpses,
however, give scarcely more than sugges
tions of the splendor and extent of this
c'aes of literature.
To the office of this periodical has come
within the last two weeks matter of this
kind which, exclusive of all mere time
tables, lists of tours, etc, numbers con
siderably more than 100 Items. Many of
these represent the highest form of the
printer's and Illustrator's art. Halftone
Illustrations numbering thousands might
be counted in these pamphlets. They are
printed on highly calendered paper, colors
are often used not only on the covert, but
frequently In the text. Color work so good
as may be seen In these publications Is
rarely found in any Issues of books Vir
magazines.
A list follows of pamphlets Issued by
railroads of the west and Canada whose
titles are all that could be asked for any
