the distinguished son of a more dis

waiter shaft In our house. He sa id

e nough, was some dark object flut·terlng about in the dim light. I s ei zeda broom and s tr uck It. I t still lIut·teredo I struck It again and again.

It seemed Invulnerable. At last I

used the handle of the b ro om on It,but without effect.By that time I had bec ome angry

with the th ing , and I was dete rminedto kill It. I assaulted it with the

broom until I was almost exhausted,and my mother put a stop to the

proceedings. Investigation then

showed that the "bat" was a black

bow, surreptitiou·sly removed f rom my

mothe r' s b es t h at by my father and

strung u po n a n Iron wire in such away that a slight vibration made the

bow fiutter. My father enjoyed the

joke hugely-much more than mymother and I did. He spent a wholeday working out that scheme.

He was the most In tense man I everknew. He left no stone unturned oncehe dec id ed to do anything. I wenthome one day and told him that aman In a d ru g s to re h ad o ff er ed tcgive me a white poodle In exchangefor a penny with two heads on It. I

Don'tjust because the soles ar e worn through, or th e uppers ar ecracked, or heels worn down. Save th e money fo r that new pairand have them repaired at a small cost. A do llar s aved is a dollarearned. Saving a dollar is easier than earning it .

Shoes that cost you from $5.00 up will be repaired to lookl ike new, and give the same service as a new pair would at bu t atrifling cost. Isn't this saving ()f a dol la r worth while considering? Don't delay, bring them in now, before they are beyondrepaIr.
