NO OPPOSITION IN RACE FOR CIRCUIT JUDGESHIP ROCHESTER, Ind.. Sept. 23. Prospects are that Atty. S. N. Stevens of Plymouth, democratic nominee for judge of the Fulton-Marshall circuit court, will be unopposed by any other candidates. Neither republicans nor progressives have made a move to nominate and no person is seeking to enter the race. Fulton county progressives, who have been losing heavily, if a late poll is to be believed, are enthusiastic over the announcement that Albert J. Beverldge will speak hero Friday, Oct. 7. The Moose placed a Rochester township ticket in the field Saturday.

A Completely Firaished Den m library

ror

$14.76

That $14.75 does not come anywhere near being the proper valuation of these four pieces of futniture must be conceded by every one who studies the above illustration and reads through the description of the different pieces. Why, just think of placing a bookcase, a large library table, comfortable upholstered rocker and chair to match at an entire cost of $14.75. The above illustration is an exact reproduction of the furniture itself, made from photographic blue prints, showing every line in exact proportion without the slightest exaggeration. If the four pieces were sold singly, we ca safely say that the cost would be approximately twice what the complete suile is offered for sale tomorrow.

We Insisted Upon the Mission Oak Finish. Mission Oak, as you doubtlessly kno", is a far more expensive finish than those commonlv applied to mission furniture of this character. But "we know from past experience that people with discriminating tastes want the mission oak finish because it is not only the most lasting finish ever applied to oak, but also the most beautiful, blending perfectly with all decorations and does not show the dust. The Bookcase Is the Distinctly New Type. The design of this bookcase is absolutely one of the newest, being shown this season for "the first time. It is positively one of the most graceful pieces of bookcase furniture we have ever seen. This style is bound to be among the most popular on account of its trim lines, which enable it to be placed almost anywhere in direct contrast to the low, squatty type of bookcase. It has live removable shelves.

50c Monthly on Each Piece. No better evidence of our sincere desire to place any large special offers within the means of everyone could be wished for than the low credit terms that apply on this four-piece set. $2.00 places all four pieces in your home and $2.00 is the monthly payment. Or in other words, 50c on each piece of furniture. Surely no more liberal arrangements between a store and its customers could be wished for than this. The Massively Built Library Table. Is very solidly constructed of heavy lumber. Note the thickness of the legs, the magazine shelf, etc. All joining places are reinforced and you can depend upon this table standing the severest strain. Each table is fitted with a commodious drawer for stationery, etc.

The Upholstered Chair and Rocker. There is nothing elaborate about either the Chair or Rocker, or in fact the entire suite. The manufacturers endeavored to secure simplicity and comfort, rather than overornate carvings, etc. The chair and rocker are comfortably upholstered with a splendid grade of Chase leather. Our Object in Selling These Four Pieces at $14.75. We think that everyone will concede that our margain of profit on this four-piece suite, if anything, must be very low. We pass up our reasonable profit in order to acquaint several hundred customers with the business policy of this store, the stock it carriers, its leniency of credit terms, etc. We have only 50 of these suites, however, and they will be sold to the tirst comers, and therefore we advise early selection.
