HEN you purchase an

you really save, or
do you just think you

something that time, or do
<< you just think you do?
There is no economy in
cheap shoes. When we say
that we do not mean that it
is necessary to pay $5 or $6
to get a good shoe, for it is
not so.
Generally a shoe whose
regular price is extremely
low is poor economy, and the
cot price shoe is often a cheap
shoe for that purpose only.
W
Now here is something we
wish yon to remember: We
carry shoes at low prices, but
they are standard makes and
excellent shoes at the price;
and if we ever advertise a
special price, you may depend on it they will be from
our regular stocks of standard

Some years ago the state of Nevada had need of a prison, and for
t h a t matter it has great need of it
now. But at that time the necessity
was deemed so great ft]ia.i the legislature made an appropriation for the
construction of a plaee at Reno,
"where dangerous characters might
be kept in restraint. The walls were
built good and strong. They Were
Ihick and high, for they were intended to prevent any possibility of es*
cape by the craftiest of convicts. The
work was finished in due season, but
exigencies had arisen since the beginning that made it seem desirable
t o confine the prisoners elsewhere.
So the walls were, never used, although $118,000 of hard cash had
been spent on them.
There they
stood, year after yejvr, as useless as
a barren fruit tree,
IS.ot long ago Dr. Patterson., superintendent of the Nevada insane asylum, an institution not far from the
unused walls, figured that they
would hold water.
He consulted
with others, and the result is that
the stockade, instead of being a corral for prisoners, has become a fountain of health, of comfort, almost of
life, for Dr. Patterson and the unfortunates under his care. More than
this'. As the walls are 20 feet high
and only six feet are needed for
reservoir purposes, the rest is being
torn away and the material used for
repairs and new buildings at the
state university and the asylum. If

There . r e several varieties of this
peculiar kind of food mixture. Cocoa
(the. roasted and ground chocolate
bean deprived of fat) may be substituted for the chocolate, or coffee may
frtf employed instead. If coffee is utilized, only one-fourth of dried milk is
put with it. In any case the ingre-1
dients are powdered separately and
then mixed.
In a dry state the mixtures of milk
and chocolate are pleasant to the taste
and highly digestible, affording an admirable condensed food.
One advantage of this kind of food
is that it is cheap, the skimmed milk
being almost a waste product. It is
composed mainly of the "proteids," or
flesh-forming ingredients, of the milk
and cocoa or coffee beans, with enough
fat and starch to make it a well-balanced ration. If desired, the requisite
sugar may be introduced into the original mixture.

"and y e t in the period covered by

at the United State* have been as*
aa&sina'ted, I remember the incidents
associated with the assassination of
Lincoln a s clearly as those related
to the assassination of McKinley.
Whenever I think of McKinley among
the reponsire Smiling throngs of Buffalo I think of Lincoln among t h e
soldiers and the people after the fall
of Richmond.
"That was a period of wild excitement, keyed everywhere t o a note
of triumph. For weeks the intense
life of the north had taken on a
new phase. The culmination of Sherman's march to the sea, the presence
of. the president at Petersburg, all
pointed to a climax in the drama of
war. The bulletins from Petersburg
that went to the country a s the eontest narrowed down toward the 1st
of April, 1865, were signed by A.
Lincoln. The telegraph system then
was not what it is now, and news of
vital importance often came first t o
governors or t o military commandera.
**I remember one quiet Sunday aft*
ernoon in Columbus, 0 . , where there
were n o Sunday papers coming from
any quarter and where the two daily
newspaper offices were closed, that a
group of distinguished men, including a judge of the supreme court, a
banker and members of the legislature, walked through the silent corridors of the state capitol seeking
news at the governor's office.
The
doors were closed and they were not

gentlemen were going out, disappointed, they met bluff old Gov.
Brough in the hall.
"He w a s imperturbability itself.
His face showed no excitement or
emotion. The judge asked him if
there was any news from Grant. He

was in an uproar.
"That right a crowd of thousands

square and stood in the rain while
Gov. Brough told them of t h e news
from the front.
He stood near a
street lamp, the light illuminating
his massive balrl'head, on the top of
which the raindrops were pattering
and splashing. Some one said: 'Put
on your hat, governor; put on your

said: |Jt will not put on my hat. I
stand uncovered in the presence of
the great victory, and I will not put
on my hat.* Standing on a pile of
brick, he spoke his speech to the end
and never recovered from the cold
he took that night.
"Then came almost a week of such
rejoicing as the country had never
experienced before. This high tide
of exultation swept the people forward to the Hth of April, when
throughout the north gTeat meetings

to the lowest flow.
"At that time the government and
the military authorities practically
controlled the wires from Washington.
The news of the tragedy at
Ford's theater went that night only
to the larger cities. It came to the
others and the country at large with
the death of'the president early the
next morning, and there, was in truth
wailing throughout the land. It w a s
r., new experience. It was a terrifying blow, but i t is well to remember
that at the time no one pretended
that the assassination of the president was not an act of war. All the
enginery of the government, all the
police power of civil' life, all the energy of the people at large w a s
turned to the pursuit, capture and
punishment of the conspirators and
assassins. When the assassin w a s
ahot and his accomplices captured
the people breathed freer and they
grieved as they never had grieved before."
There were three bullet holes in the
hat.
"On another occasion the men were
ordered to kneel behind a low stone
wall to receive cavalry that was expected to pass that way. The officer
looking after the disposition of the
regiment was about to pronounce everything all right, when he wheeled
his horse and said: 'You man in company C, there; kneel down.' Macavoy
was kneeling down like the other boys,
but his head showed above the top of
the wall. Unconscious of this, he was
looking serenely at the ira-te officer,
and said, calmly:
'I am kneeling
down.' The officer replied: 'Then take
your head down, blast you, or it will
be shot off.' And Macavoy sullenly
crouched down so his head wouldn't
show."

"To my mind the old army never
showed to better advantage than on
that day. The ragged clothes, bare
legs and feet were so many testimonials of the high soldier spirit thai
carried men through all sorts of trials
and privations. There was no grumbling, and after the long march the
men were as ready for fight and as
efficient in a fight as before the inarch
began. Whenever I think of the army
as it was before Goldsboro there
comes into my mind another scene in
which a single East Tennessee farmer
stood as a type of thousands of men
whose devotion to the union cause was
as true' as that Of Sherman's mien in

were hiding their tracks by murdering the Kaffirs behind them. "Lord
Kitchener wired to-day," he continued, "that the cold-blooded murder
of natives had become frequent of
late, and that two dead natives, their
hands tied behind their backs, were
found November, 10 at the bottom of
a mine shaft." Later in his speech,
Mr. Broderick said Great Britain now
had 42.000 Boers in custody in the
concentration camps and on various
islands, and that 11.000 more had
been killed or wounded, or had left
the country on parole.
He added
that he believed the number of Boers
now in the field was about 10,000.
"The country has set its teeth and
intends to go through the process Of
wearing down," he exclaimed. "We
intend to provide , Lord Kitchener
with fresh troops to replace the tired
ones."
