The setting of this little comedy is at Oxford, England, where Jack Chesney, Lord Fancourt Babberly and Charlie Wycum are in college. Charlie and Jack are in love with Amy and Kitty, and wish very much to tell them of it.

On receiving a message of Charlie's Aunt's intended visit, they immediately strike upon the idea of a lunchparty, in her honor, for their girls.

Plans for the luncheon are arranged, when a telegram announces, the Aunt has postponed her visit.

Babbs appears, dressed for the rehearsal of a play, in which he is to take the part of an "old woman. This suggests to them his filling the Aunt's place which is done, thus starting innumerable amusing incidents. All ends as it should.

Geo. W. Peffly Boys a Buick. Geo. W. Peffly, one of New Palestine's enterprising general merchants, was in New Castle this week and bought of the Goodwin Motor Car Company a fine model 10 Buick, surrey pattern for $1050. Mr. Peffly certainly secured a fine machine. It is great in every particular, beauty, strength, speed, durability, easy riding, simplicity of construction and management and lasting qualities. What more could you ask? Any one wanting the best the market affords will make a mistake if they do not see Goodwin Bro's. at New Castle an$ take a look at the Buick.

Unlocked Doors and Worked Safe's

Combination At Lee C. Thayer's

Store—Secured Money and Papers

—Left Souvenir. The safe in Lee C. Thayer's Spot Cash store was robbed Wednesday night and §26.50 in currency, together with some valuable papers were taken. The robbery was discovered between 3 and 4 o'clock a. m. by Night Watchman Quinn Johnson, who found the door to the grocery department open. Mr. ^Johnson telephoned to Mr. Thayer and watched the door until his arrival.

The thieves had entered by way of the grocery department and opened the big doors between that departand the dry goods department to get to the safe which is in Mr. Thayer's office. The combination was worked and the key to the drawer in which some of Mr. Thayer's private papers were kept was taken. This drawer had been stripped of its contents, but Mr. Thayer states that the papers are of no use to anyone except himself, as they were insurance papers, notes, contracts, etc.

Upon coming to the store this morning Miss Kresenz Hafner, the cashier, discovered that her pocket book, containing about $9.50, was taken. She had left it in the cashier's department. A box of small change, containing $6 or $7 which was on top of the cashier's desk, had not been touched.

The persons, who did the work, were undoubtedly handy and had a bunch of keys that would fit any door because the entrance had been effected bj* using a key,' there being no scratches on the lock to show that it had been picked. Also the doors between the two departments had been locked again after the cracksman had finished his job. Also the safe had been closed again and the combination turned and had it not been that the grocery door was found open, the fact of the robbery would not have been discovered till Mr. Thayer's usual time of coming to the store.

No clew was left by the robber, although a neat little souvenir was left on the outside, a whiskey bottle just about emptied- of its contents. It evidently took a bracer to get the robber in condition to do the work.

That if it is nip and tuck for You to support the family, tuck will have the best of it when your wife comes to it all? That you may be one of the 97 out of every 100 who make a failure in life?

That next year's dollars are made out of this year's dimes? That a dime invested in an Endowment Policy will yield more satisfactory results than a dime invested in a cigar stand?

That the first evidence you may h^ive of success in life will be when your Endowment Policy matures?
