and of good material. Suits in Blue Serge, Brown Mixture, Gray
Mixture, Plaids, some
plain tailored, others
pinch back. Over
Coats in black with
large fur collars. Many
mixed colors; tailored
in very latest styles in
knee lengths and some
longer.
And remember that
every garment is
guaranteed to give
satisfaction.

NEW STOPPER BEATS FRAUDS
As X »ie*iu of protection to deal [j
m haring an individual trade mar*
ned to prevent their bottled goods
from being tampered with by the un-
scrupulous, the bottle stopper recent-
ly invented by James Allen of Wash-
ington meets a specific need, sajrs the
Popular Science Monthly.
It consists of an ordinary tapered
cork with a flexible wire or cord
passing through thw center. At the
end of the wire is a plug'. The plug
has a flanged head. When the wire
is pulled the flange strikes the cork
so that the plug cannot be pulled
out. v
j The cork is used in connection
'with two protective seals, one seal
being wrapped around the neck of
the bottle and pasted to if* the other
being secured'to the top of the bot-
tle. A part of the pulling cord is
held beneath the seal on the top of
the bottle and the ends are held
down finder the other seal. It is
therefore impossible to pull the
string*in order to open the bottle
without mutilating the seal or the
lead foil cup.
When this stopper is used it is
pushed down flush with the top of
the bottle so that no part of it pro-
jects. By pulling the eord the seals
or any lead foil capsules wrhich may
be used instead of seals are broken
through and the stopper removed
without a corkscrew or other aid.
The end of the looped cord may
be entirely concealed beneath the
lend foil or it may project a little in
order that it may be more readily
found when needed. Lead foil caps
or seals may be used as preferred,
with equal satisfaction.
NEW STYLES FOR SOLDIERS
Businesslike Uniform Now Worn by
American Fighting Man Unlike
Bizarre Garb of Early Days.
There is little in the businesslike,
simple uniform of the American sol-
dier, which lately lias become such a
familiar sight in the streets, remini-
scent of the colorful, bizarre garb of
the early army of the United States.
From the time of the revolution-
ary war, or soon thereafter, the ten-
dency was steadily toward simplicity,
but it was not until after the waT
with Spain that khaki was adopted
and the easily visible blue trousers
and shirt discarded, says the Rehe-
both Sunday Herald.
Today the American soldier’s uni-
form is designed for comfort, serv-
iceability, protection from both
weather and discovery by the enemy
-win short, for efficient service.
What some of the picturesque old
uniforms were devised ftrt is more
than one can say—unless it was foi
their pieturesqueness. ..
HARDLY.
A marriage broker had assured a
young man that the father of a cer-
tain girl was no longer living. After
the engagement had been announced
the news leaked out that the father
was still living and serving a term in
prison. The suitor reproached the
agent for deceiving him.
“Well,” said the flitter, “what did
I tell you? Do you call that liv-

son of this city was one of the
pall bearers.
