Back of the rivers and behind the forest walls there are vast tracts of savannah suitable for tattle raising. An ex-ccssl-'. rainfall at certain seasons of the year which Is followed by a prevalence of fever is the chief drawback to the climatic conditions and the hospital accommodations in the region arc very scanty. The reported intention of the government tc tackle this problem in a comprehensive manner is expected to remove one of the principal ob

stacles to successful colonization.

Pres't Pessoa has frequently spoken of the United States in most enthusiastic and friendly terms since his return home and comment in the newspapers throughout the republic shows that Brazilians are looking to the United States more than to any other country for

financial and other aid which they need in thp development of their nation.il resources.

6J After a few seasons of make-shift clothes, same as all have been forced to buy owing to past war conditions, it sure is good to sense the feel of real quality as you rub the fabric of one of our new Fall Suits between the thumb and fore finger, J Yes Sir! King quality is back on the throne again. flj Just to sea and examine the few advance Fall Suits we coaxed our manufacturers to rush through so that we could have them for our trade while others were trying to dispose of their un-sold Spring stocks, will convince the most "Doubting Thomas." C We'd be having a Spring Sale also if it were riot for the fact that our Cooperative Money - Saving Plan appealed so strongly that we experienced far more difficulty in getting clothes enough to meet the demand than we did in selling them. J If you are contemplating buying a suit at this time, better buy one of these new Fall Styles Remember, our profit sharing plan insures you the same price advantage now that you will be given elsewhere the tail-end of next Winter when the left-overs of Fall patterns are being sold.
