That Costume of Hers Show me a lady who does not enjoy admiration, and 1 will see a hopeless freak. Hence ladies have excellent taste, they study the art of dress, and they have it now to a scientific nicety. So the merchant, who is a success has to get his selections down to scientific nicety, or his selections will lie on his (helves till the moths walk off with them. Now, ladies, we want to state this: In Swindell's department store, the dress goods sales have not only doubled and tripled, but ten-fold is he rate of increase in two years. Where we used to sell one dress, now we are selling ten dresses and trim mings all complete. Now let me ask all who read this: If this statement is true, what does it mean? Get collars, cuffs, scarfs and ties from Swindell's department store. The Love of a Bonnet Every lady is especially particular to get style in a bonnet or hat." Noth ing so enhances the beauty of any lady as a pretty, catchy hat one that is just the eomplete thing. At the same time the ladies of this age have an eye to price as well as style.. Hence it is that, the millinery department at Swin dell' a department store is so thorough ly crowded all the time. You get style and quality and the price is right. lnr prices are popular. Then our milliners take great pride and pleas ure in assisting an undecided custo mer in getting just what will become her. Our milliner can improve an ugly woman, much less you. Try Swindell's department store for a dress and trimmings. TaYourFo twearin Style? Have you tried a pair of tan shoes? If you haven't then you are standing in your own light. It is the right idea now for any man to wear tan snoes. They are worn, not as a fad, but be cause they have been tried and they suit suit all who have given them a trial. Those who haven't tried tan shoes, should; then they will he a friend to this kind of shoe leather It's men we are talking to now. We would like to show any gentlemen our tan bluohers at $2.50.

It Can be Seen Plainly One Hundred Miles. Sailors coming into New York will have a surprise when they get off Sandy Hook. Those who visited the great Chicago fair well remember the monster searchlight which was placed upon the roof of the manufacturers' building and which threw its brilliant shafts into every corner of the grounds nightly. In spite of the fact that it had to penetrate the murky gloom of the soft coal atmosphere at Chicago, its glenm was ocuassionally to be seen at Milwaukee, eighty-five miles away. This miniature sun has been brought out to the seacoast and erected upon the proving grounds of Sandy Hook. It will be put in operation some day next week, and it is expected that it can be distinctly seen on clear nights more than 100 miles out at sea. It can be seen nearly as far on land, and its Hash on the clouds may easily be ob servable in New York. The, claim is made that newspaper print may be read by its light ten miles away. Ships may be made out when more than twenty miles distant, and men of wai distinguished eight miles away. The light is especially adapted for coast de - fense purposes and can be placed s far inland that no enemy's shot could reach it, while it would be of great service in detecting the approach of hostile vessels. The carbons have a diameter of an inch and a half, and Lue iiiieiisuyiiiK power 01 i-ue f;it reflector is 4,2.0. The rays of tli I'he rays of the (JO candle power. 1 lias been built electric arc have a 45,000, and with th Hector have 194.000,000 A tower 120 feet high for the searchlight and the power is furnished by a twenty horse power marine engine and dynamos.
