CITY MERCHANT ARE SHOPPING FOR CHRISTMAS Yuletide Stocks Will Be Delivered to Indianapolis Late in Fall. Only about 150 more shopping days until Christmas, and while we are fanning around trying to get cool, most of the big merchants in Indianapolis are getting in touch with Santa Claus. They have been in that thing of next yuletide since January, while most of us will not start thinking about it until snow flies. Mother of course will start early, as usual. Father probably will not realize Christmas shopping must be done until the fourth Monday in December. Christmas comes on Tuesday. As soon as the annual year-end shopping rush is over, merchants take an inventory of goods and decide to start shopping around the world for catchy things for next Christmas. Maintains Paris Staff One of the largest downtown department stores maintains a staff of buyers in Paris that does nothing but order and purchase what America will want for Christmas. All of their Christmas shopping for the stores is completed in Europe before the middle of the 'year. Only a few specialties are ordered after that time, merchants say. One firm handling novelties has men and women in Italy, France, Germany and all of the little hyphenated two-by-four kingdoms "of Europe. Contrary to popular notion, they

every drug store in this city. Thousands of men and women from all over this section have indorsed it as the only medicine that gav them lasting relief from disorders of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, and rheumatism and neuritis, and the Konjola Man at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington Sts., this city, is still receiving one report after another from former sufferers who have been restored to new and glorious health. There can be only one reason for this great demand and that is the fact that Konjola in most csises does everything claimed for it. One of the latest reports of the benefits received from tnis celebrated compound is from Mr. F. R, Maurice, a well-known India.napolis citizen, living at 334 Cable St. Mr. Maurice enjoys -a wide acquaintance among the merchants of this city because of his frequent contact with them as a tobacco salesman. “This is the first time I ever made a public indorsement of a medicine,” said Mr. Maurice, “but I am satisfied Konjola is a product of merit and worthy of all the praise it is receiving every day from the people of Indianapolis. It completely ended my stomach trouble and nervousness and filled my whole system with new life energy. “Ever so often I was subject to attacks of stomach trouble finally made life miserable for me. In fact at times the suffering and pains were almost unbearable. Gas bloating caused me the most misery. Every time I ate a full meal, my stomach would swell and feel like there was a heavy rock at the bottom of it. This gas often caused burning pains around the heart and at night I was subject to smothering spells. Soon my nervous system was affected. The least little thing would set my nerves on edge and a terrible feeling would come over me. Sound sleep was out of the question and consequently, 1 always felt tired and drowsy. But Konjola relieved all this misery, and now my stomach is good shape and my nerves never bother me. At night my sleep is sound and restful and I wake up in the morning full of new energy and feeling fine. “Konjola was the' first medicine to relieve my illness and it worked so effectively on all the organs of my inner-system that I believe my relief will be permanent.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold in every Hook drug store in this section and by all the leading druggists throughout this section.— Advertisement.

don’t do they* buying direct from stocks of goods already manufactured. European methods are different from American customs. A buyer decides he wants some particular kind of toy. He tells a manufacturer in Europe about what he wants. The manufacturer then makes a design of the article desired and perhaps makes a sample. All the buying is done from these samples and designs, Shipped Late in Fall In America the supply, in most cases, preceecjs the demand, but in Europe the demand comes before the supply. That’s why goods for Christmas sale in America have to be purchased so long before the holiday. Most of these materials are shipped into Indianapolis late in the fall. This week right downtown heretwo shipping clerks strugg’ed under a sweltering load of furs. Great gobs of furs were brought in and stored in the vault of the merchant. And this winter while we are treating our finger? for frost bite the merchants will be buying swimming suits and straw hats.

HOUSTON SPLITS ON MILLIONAIRES FEUD

Jones Boom for Nomination Fought by Rival Parley Worker. i BY C. J. LILLEY HOUSTON, Texas, June 26. Houston’s convention harmony is being disrupted by the two .richest of its many multimillionaires. Growing out of th 6 arrangements for the convention a feud has developed between Jesse Jones, capitalist and publisher, and Will Hogg, 'millionaire oil man and son df the late Governor James Hogg of Texas. Hogg Resigns Job It was Jones who brought the convention to Houston by putting up his personal check for $200,000. When he came back from Washington and New York, he was met by a band and committee of leading citizens. He was paraded through the streets as a local hero and testimonial dinners were given him Enthused over the prospect of having the first Democratic convention in the South since before the Civil War, Houston citizens started subscribing funds to pay the bill. Leading citizens were made chairmen of an auditorium was built and things moved smoothly until Hogg resigned as chairman of the committee on tickets. Hogg charged, in a public statement that tickets were being distributed to friends of Jons and that the convention was turning into a Jesse Jones ballyhoo. Warns Moody Meantime the Texas Democrats met and quarrelled in their “harmony” session at Beaumont and Jones was agreed upon as the candidate for whom the delegation should vote on the first ballot. Hogg considered this further proof of Jones’ desire to promote himself at the expense of Houston. A letter written by Hogg was sent

NEW SHELTER HOUSE WILL BE BUIIJBY FALL Great Business Growth Is Shown Since Inception of Establishment.

Plans are being made for the new market shelter of the Indianapolis Producers’ Market at South and East Sts., according to Fred Minger, marketmaster. The market, a wholesale and retail selling system, was inaugurated three years ago with the wholesale department predominating. Gradually the retail department expanded, until now between thirty and sixty stalls are open every day. They are grouped on the east section of the block square concrete market grounds. A shelter hbuse will be erected this fall if the volume of business warrants the expansion, directors say. Flanked by Walks The house will be about 100 feet square and will be flanked on three sides by a wide concrete sidewalk. Stands will be placed both inside and outside the house. The sides of the shelter probably will be constructed so they can be removed in the summer and replaced in the winter. Heat, light and water facilities will be installed. The wholesale department opens about 3 a. m. every day except Sunday and closes about 11 a. m. The retail side opens about 7 a. m. and closes at 10 p. m. every days except Sunday. Foodstuffs Home Grown Small truck gardeners and farmers supply the merchandise. Whole-
