There are a lot of women —who would wear turn shoes if they could get them not to rip. I’ve got a line of turn comfort shoes that come pretty near being rip proof. I don’t believe we.ve had a half a dozen of them rip in a year and we sell scads of them too. We have them in narrow round toes and the extra broad ball and heel lasts, some with cushion insoles and rubber heels, some lace and some congress ni both high and low shoes. If you’ve had trouble getting a shoe of this character try me next time. Easy Treads $2.00 to $3.00 Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller

LAST TAPS SOUND (Continued from page 1 I Miss Catherine Garver, this union being an unusually happy one and broken only a year and a half and one day before his death, when the wife and mother passeu away March 23, 1909. They resided in Root township until Mr. Christen was elected auditor of the county, when they removed to this city, where they have since lived. He served eight years as auditor, and also held the office of county assessor besides several minor offices. He was one of the foremost men of tho city and identified in every way with her growth during all these years. He was for many years proprietor of the large manufacturing plant on Jefferson street, and later served for fifteen or twenty years as local manager and agent for the gas company. He was also a stockholder in several large enterprises of the present day, besides being a director in the German Building & Loan Fund company, and his business activity was manifest to the last. Not only was he one of the most progressive citizens, but he was a loyal husband, faithful and loving to his family, whose care and comfort his chief thought was. He leaves the following children: Mrs. F. E. France of Muskogee, Okla.; Frank, of Chicago; Rose, Dick, Mrs. Dolly Durkens and Bruce, all of this city. Besides tlfese there are six grandchildren. He is also survived by the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. Eliza Amend of Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. Mary Long, Fort Wayne; John of this city; William and Mrs. Anna Tyson of California; Robert of Marion. Albright died a number of years ago, as did several brothers and sisters, who passed away in infancy. At the time of his death Mr. Christen was one of the five living affiliating charter members of the local Knights of Pythias and took an active part and interest in the dedication service of the new home last winter. He was also a member of the G. A. R., the Masons and the Odd Fellows. He was in early life a member of the Concord Lutheran church of Root township, and upon coming to this city identified himself with the Presbyterian church, being one of its most faithful members. The entrance of the home, where his body lies in state, is draped by a large silken American flag, at half mast, in memory of his faithful service in preserving it. The funeral will be held Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from the home on Adams street, the Rev. Spetnagel officiating. The G. A. R. will give him a military burial, and the other orders of which he was a member will also attend in a body. o Miss Goldie Nye transferred here this morning on her way to her home near Monmouth after a visit with friends at Rockford, Ohio.
