There are about two hundred loyal, ' never-say-die boosters tn Decatur that deserve a medal. They deserve it. and some day they will get it. Decatur could nbt stand still or retrograde with this hustling baud of braves to push out when the call to arms is given. : There is but one Col Fred Reppert. 1 As an auctioneer he stands without a peer, and as a eitixen of Decatur, there is some as good. but none betl ter.

THE WEATHER FOR APRIL Rav. Irt R. Hicks of St. Louis. Makes His Prophsciea. Rev. Irl R. Hicks, the St. Louis weather prophet, makes the following prophecies for April: The first storm period—Reactionary, is central on the Ist and fid, and the probabilities are that the disturbances existing a: the end of March will be prolonged into these opening days of April. The second storm period—Regular, covers the Sth to the 10th, having its center on the 7th. We figure that the storms at the close of March and into April Ist and fid. will bring late snow and sleet to northern sections, but these will disappear under the changes that will come from the sth to the Sth. About the bth the thermometer will rise, he barometer tall and storm areas will begin to form in the west. During the 7th. Sth and Sth these conditions will move over the country, bringing April storms to most sectiOM. The third storm period—Reactionary. wtn be almost, if not quite a continuance of the period jus* before it, being central on the 1-th. ISth and

14th. At all events, low barometer, higher temperature and general tendency to April s.jrms will cuhainate within forty-eight hours of noon cc the Ifith This is also another seismic and volcanic crisis. High barometer and chance to much colder will follow this period, say from about the 14th to 17th. Look for iseavv frosts in many sections on aad: sear these dares. The fourth storm period —Regular., :s from the l>’h to the fifid During the ISth. fi*h and fist, these storms will reach a crisis as they pass over; the country frees west to east. Rain. ■ hail and thunder, with sq-ralla and, driving h.gh wmds. will charactenxe ’ the disturbances of this period The fifth storm period —Reaction-1 ary. win bring another culminate® of' s-orm forces on the fifth, foth and' *srh These disturbances wCI bringeiec*ric*l storms in all regions south- ■ ward, with general cioafmess and rain, possibly tn—:r.g to belated sleet and snow i- the north. The sixth storm period —Regular covers the fiTth to the Sd of May The m-.x« is ris-l on the firih and in perigee «■ the the central day ofi the period. At this rime the Mars period wiT be weU advanced, with the; SBerewri dis.; n-bd®ce in ?*" force Let i ®s aJs>.- keep in ®tsd that -UTster and Saturn are at the cecrers of theri;

periods Low barometer and storms will be tn full swing from west to east from about the 2Sth to the close of April. Heavy April rains and thunder storms will visit many sections during the progress of these storm areas.

Good Clothes and a good horse are alike in j one way. The thoroughbred quality is some- i thing more than a surface appearance, it’s } what’s underneath that wins the races. That’s what we like about Hart, Schaffner ■ & Marx Clothes: the sound reliable, all-wool I quality is in them: the tailoring is right; ‘the lines” if the garments are thoroughbred lines. I They look “Quality” all over. I We are very proud of our 1907 Spring | showing in Men’s and Boy’s Clothes, in fact we I think they are the best in the City, Beautiful | Patterns, Good Style.
