GUESS Diogenes searching for an honst man had no greater tank than
I. leading linlght of Ak-Kar-Hen. who Is seeking the Omaha woman
who has made. Is making or expects (o make her own gown for the
Ak-flar-Ben hall.
The discussion waa anent the wearing of made-in-Omaba gowna, the
rumor having been to the effect that King Ak-Sar-Hen would follow the
lead of his royal neighbor, the Veiled Prophet, and bar from his rourt any
lady who purchased her court robes elsewhere.
"Making sure they are made In Omaha Is not half aa Important as that
thej be made by the wearer herself," declared the knight, opening up wide
Tlstas of father wading through a heap of dressmakers' bills the first of
the month.
And let it be known that local mod lute are absolutely swamped with
the onrush of orders for Ak-Sar-TJen fineries to be created, so one cannot
but be impressed with the loyalty our women are showing to the true spirit
of Ak-fiar-Ben by having their gowns made In Omaha.
In the past It has been the custom more than once of the maid selected
to bear th royal robes to go abroad the summer previous to choose her
coronation gown, this having several times proved the clue to her Identity.
With no European traveling this last summer, It Is pretty safe to ven
ture the guess that her majesty's gown and ermine are In the making right
here In Qulvera, and It won't suffer any by comparison, either.

"I'll throw off my old brogues
And shake hands with the
And go to the fair
Like a jolly old blade."
We used to call shoes BROGUES in our boyhood days, and perhaps after all it was a more fitting name than
the word SHOES, as applied to the various makes and styles. Shoe, indeed, was originally intended to apply to a
foot covering reaching only to the ankles. My, how numerous the fashions and follies in shoes. From the Clog and
Sabot, to tha Boot and Buskin, elaborate contrivances bebuckled and bedecked to the finer elegance which "needs
not the foreign aid of ornament." '
These Shoes at This Sale Are Mainly Boots
New this season, the "Last word" so to speak, in footery elegance -$5.00 and $6.00 qualities
Per

To those who know the words "MAKER BAKER" will speak volumes (AT THE START OF THE SEASON,
TOO). Mr. Tuttle has hired special salesmen to give you attention BUT WON'T YOU COME IN THE MORN.
INO, PLEABE? An old Scot friend of ours used to say: "Getting up in the morning airly, is no for me." His
wife, however, was an early riser, indeed all the household members were early birds. It's the wives and the sisters
and the cousins and the aunts that this sale is for. We want to fit you, foot comfort means constant customers.
We wouldn't give a fig for just one sale. This is intendad to be a real homey store. "MORE FOR LESS" builds
business.
