Os course, that quality pays in shoes; it is the only thing that does pay. You can always buy cheap shoes, but you’d better not; they’re expensive. We make a business of selling high quality shoes. They’re attracting to our store a lot of new customers. It’s worth something to us to have people say, I can buy the best shoes of

A conspicuous feature of the offerings in Wall street Friday was the 15,000 Toledo, St. Louis and Western (Clover Leaf) common and preferred stocks. Inasmuch as the Clover Leaf has but recently taken over the Chicago and Alton, the financial district was much interested in knowing for whose account the stocks were being sold. —Frankfort Crescent. News regarding the situation of the machinists strike on the Erie has been very hard to obtain of late and not much has been done by either side which could be deemed important. The machinists have been going along at the same quiet rate, getting all information possible in regard to the effect of the strike but showing violence in no way.—Huntington Herald. B. W T . Douglass, State Entomoligist says the indications are for an unusually good yield of fruit of all kinds in Indiana next year. Only weather conditions, he says, will prevent a good fruit yield. An early freeze or warm weather next spring followed by a freeze might play havoc with the fruit, but unless there are some such weather conditions the yield will likely be above the average. This year the fruit was a failure. The freight business of the Clover Leaf is showing a decided increase as hardly a day passes over but shows new shipments, going east over the Clover Leaf route. Yesterday freight train No. 4 was loaded with meat of the Cudahy brand. This is new shipments as this company had shipping arrangements with the Alton and that road gave out the business elsewhere. Now that the Alton is a twin brother of the Clover Leaf this business comes through here. The Chicago and Alton cars are nearly as common on the Clover Leaf as the cars of the Clover Leaf road—Frankfort Crescent

Neat little invitations are out announcing the fact that a formal dance will be given at the K. C. hall Thanksgiving. Many are expected to attend this event. The funeral of Mrs. Harvey Miller was held Sunday morning at ten o’clock at the Mount Victor church, a large crowd was present to pay their last tribute of respect to the deseased Rev.

Billy Harden, base ball player and masher, sends newspaper clippings to Hartford City friends from Celina, 0., in which his latest experience on the matrimonial sea is ralated. Billy was this week granted a decree of divorce from bis wife, and her name is Maud. The divorce was given on the ground that Maud had been extremely neglectful of her duties as a wife inasmuch as she often departed for parts unknown, leaving Billy by his lonesome. —Hartford City News. A meeting was held Friday evening at the Merchants hotel, to talk over matters relating to a base ball team for next year, and to discuss the question of membership in the In-diana-Ohio league. The meeting, owing to the small notice given, was not as well attended as should have been, but those present, were enthusiastic. It was decided that Portland should retain her place in the league, and manager Hunt was instructed to attend the Richmond meeting on Sunday, and was authorized to take whatever action was necessary to retain the berth—Portland Review.

An engine pulling the local Clover Leaf freight “died” in the yards here this morning and the train was laid up until another locomotive could get here from Frankfort. The flues leaked so badly that it was impossible to keep the fire burning.—Bluffton Banner. In the crusade for better spelling now being sonducted in the schools of Indiana by the state superintendet of public instruction, Superintendent Cotton, in his third bulletin to Indiana teachers, suggests that the child be taught, not from spelling books, but from lists of words relative to the material objects with which the child has to deal. In part he says: “The life of the children should furnish spelling lessons. There is a farm vocabulary, and it is essential that the country children should learn to use it accurately and intelligently. A spelling lesson should be as thoughtful and as interesting as any other lesson.

The Packard Music House of Decatur Is a salesroom, selling direct from the Packard factory at Ft. Wayne, to the consumer. We are in position to sell you a better piano or organ for less money than the small dealer, who buys one or two instruments at a time. Besides the instrument you buy of us, has the Packard factory back of it, and your banker will tell you that no better guarantee is needed, because the Packard factory has been tuning out satisfactory instruments for nearly half a century, and hardly any neighborhood can be found but that the Packard Music House has a number of pleased customers, all of whom will recommend the Packard instruments.
