Barkoot Shows, was being anticipated with a good deal of pleas- tire and confidence. The engagement Is now • reality, and at this writing (Tuesday night) it looks like It may prove one of the biggest of the season. The shows are lo- cated on the main street, which to-night are thronged with a Jolly crowd, most of whom are of the desirable class of show-goers. The entrance to the Midway Is at the City Square, and here haa been erected a beautiful arch, upon which, In electric lights, are emblazoned the words, "Hello, Bill," and "Wclconc." The committee of Elks Is surely a live one, and the queen contest and country store will doubtless be big. Tom Hurd, the general announcer, belongs to the old school of talkers which Is fast -vanishing. Ho makes a dignified and con- vincing opening, and In addition he Is a hustler for the general welfare of the show. Have you seen Charley Williams' family? up until the time of his death.

A man who also knows something about Poetry. Who appreciates the truth that it is not what the Poet says—but the way he says it—that makes the Poetry good or bad. This man, when he is in the market for a motor car, skips the pretty word pictures of whizzing on whirling wheels over rosy roads 'mid rolling rills. He wants to know about the bear- ings in those wheels, and whether the axle is strong enough not to break if he strikes a rock in the rosy road. A man who wants to see, in the advertisements he reads, reasons (btlicvable reasons) he should purchase his clothes at a certain store. This is the man'our daily advertisements are trying to reach. To-day we speak of superior fabrics at less cost than is usual H n's the Reason Why:' Because we make our clothes on our own premises, we go to the Woolen Mills not until July—seven montbs after the shops that sell other people's clothes select their fabric*. Tne mills were idle, not a loom running. Their designers were on work for new things for Fall nextytar. To keep the looms going they gave us these designs. Also we ordered other exclusive stuff of our own selection. Our Fall garments, made from such fabrics as these, are n >w ready, and, let us add, in style and tailoring the workmanship flatters the materials. Nothing in New York at our prices can apprcach our presc nt offerings. Come, Mr. Show-Me, and see.

Buckskin Bbn Notes. —After playing two of the biggest county fairs In Michigan, the ahows made tbo Jump from Hillsdale, Mich.. to Richmond, Va., to tako up ten weeks of fairs In the South. It was Den's idea to tako his carnival company out after the Spring- field fair, but the extreme, cool weather in the North, and the demand at tho Southern fairs for Ills show, caused him to change his plans and go in the South earlier than his first plans, Adrian and Hlllsdulo, Mich., fairs fioth proved to bo record breakers this season. Since Adrian has started on their new plan of reducing tho prlcu to US cents at thn front gate, and cutting out a number of tho un- desirable attractions, tbo peoplo are giving it their support, and as a couscquenco tho front gate showed a record of over 40,000 on Thursday, the big day. Hillsdale Is always a big fair, thanks to tho close attention paid by tbe secretary, C. W. Tcrwllligcr, in select- ing his attractions. A number of the board of directors of other fairs could lenrn some valuable information by taking a few lessons from the management of tbo Adrian and Hillsdale fairs.
