amber liquid to soothe the sharp pains,
which made each second a moment of
agony.
Along came temptation in the form of
the engineer of tho California hotel, rat
tling loose pieces of silver In his pockets.
With a bound the flvo men were upon
Mm and relieved him of the money.
With an old lard poll full of beer the
five retired to a secluded place In the

.t Saturday sees tho end of our MARVELOUS SHOE
SALE. This was no odd lot of odd sizes or odd styles,
but spick and span selected stock, sized just as we would
buy them for our regular trade Because of this there
has been a uniform average sale of sizes, and as a con
sequence almost as good an assortment, as we near the
end, as there was in the beginning.

in the lot there will not be many left when sale ends.
$2.95 'instead of $4.00-

wonder when you get silks worth $1.00, $1.25 and $1.50
for 59c but there's an end to all things.
Important Confession!
LET US TAKE YOU INTO OUR CONFIDENCE
A Few Days Ago Wt Announced a Sale of
Frenoh and Willow Plumes
This salo was advertised in the usual way, without any blare of trumpets or any sensational story. We sold
a good many, but not ONE-QUARTER of what should have been sold, and so we decided to advertise and try once more
In all earnestness let us impress you to look at and examine these values. More than one lady found the val
ues so wonderful and tho Plumes so ridiculously cheap that they simply could not resist buying, and some bought
three and four. Here are conservative statements covering the values. If you knew as,much about these goods as we do.
Not One Would be Left to Tell the Tale by Noon
FRENCH PLUMES VERY DESIRABLE
$1.98 for Plumes worth up to , $5.00
$2.98 for Plumes worth up to $7.50
$3.98 for Plumes worth up to , $10.00
$4.98 for Plumes worth up to $12.00
$5.98 for Plumes worth up to $15.00
Whether you buy or not we want you to
see these for we wish you to see for yourselves
tho differenco between the False and the true.
Willow Plumes Not so much in demand but still very good and priced lower, value for value, than ever
known in our belief. , ' '
$4.98 instead of $7.50
$9.98 instead of $15.00
$11.98 instead of $18.00
There is practically every color in both.
