100 Million DollarsWorth of Shoes

These are stupendous figures, yet this is the yearlyamount that the South spends for shoes. As a curiositythese figures may attract you for a minute, but the mostcurious thing about them is that three quarters of this

money is regularly sent away from the South and theSouth is that much poorer for it

You trade at a Southern shoe store. You give thedealer your money. You probably buy a western or

northern made shoe. When the dealer pays his bill, this

money, less a small per cent to the dealer, goes north or

west and the South is that much poorer.Keep your money at home. Let it work for better

times, better wages, more factories, more work forSouthern people.

Ask your dealer for The Craddock Shoe. Made inthe South, by white labor, for Southern gentlemen. Thebest shoe value offered by any maker in the land for$3.50 and $4.00. Money spent for Craddock Shoes staysin the South, and pays Southern labor, Southern grocers,bakers and butchers.

It builds Southern factories, homes and schools.We can support more and better industries. Let's

each do his part.CRADDOCK-TERRY CO.

known lu Britain was undoubtedlythat which broke out at the Tawd valley mine, near Preston. In 1872. Thousands of pounds were spent In trying tc

they are ail seated he begins to uttea series of sounds. Wheu he stop;these cries he makes another signawith his paw, and the others cry ou

until he makes a third signal, upoiwhich they become silent again. Thiauthor. Mr. Maregrove. asserts that h>was a witness to the«e preachings.

Hindu Juggling. (

The Hindu Jugglers and acrobats are

tbe most skillful In the world. One of

tbe latest stories told of them ls aliout

a performer who weut through manywonderful feats perched ou the top of

a single bamboo stick about Hfteenfeet in height. The top of the stickwas tied lo a girdle around his waist,and a leg rest was provided by a cush¬ion a few feet down the pole. Perch¬ed on this slender stick he hopped auddanced about In the liveliest way. ac¬

companied by the tapping of a drum.It would be considered a akillful featto walk about with ease on a pair ofstilts fifteen feet lu height, but thisHindu showed a marvelous power of

equilibrium on a single stick. He didother things even more wonderful. Forexample, he balauced a light stick on

his nose and a heavy one on his chin

| and then threw the heavy one Into thcair with his head and caught ii on riteend of a light one. While balancingthe two sticks thus, end on end. b;made one revolve In one direction an.

the other in the opposite direction.

despite the authority of Dr. .lohnsi.iand later lexicographers, who give thpreference to gray. Many correspondems said that they used the two fennwith a difference of meaning or application, tbe distinction most generalhrecognized # I teing that grey denotes a

more delicate or lighter tint than gray.Others considered the difference lo bethat gray is u warmer color or that ii

has a mixture of red or brown. Another group held that grey has more ofsentiment, gray more of color, which

may mean that grey ls a suggestionrather than a positive outline..NewYork Press.

at a military post was at Kort Schuy¬ler, on the site of the present city ofHome. N. Y. The fort was besiegedearly In August 1777. Tbe garrisonwas without u flag, so one was madeaccording to the prescription of con¬

gress by cutting up sheets to form thev. bite stripes, bits of scarlet cloth fortbe red stripes, and the blue groundfor tbe stars was made from a piece ofthe blue cloak belonging to CaptainAbraham Swartwout of Dutchesscounty.

Whittler as a Horseman.Boggs. a cadet cavalry officer at

West Point academy, was an assist¬ant In the riding hall. Ou one occa¬

uously to tlie horse brought for hisuse. Tbe horse, he argued, was too

heavily built and much too large for a

man of his size. Whistler, with muchvehemence, urged the man next himto "swap." The man with whom hewished to exchange horses was ofmuscular build and a "pretty generoussize" and his horse a lightweight an¬

imal, ro lt seemed to Whistler that ltwould be a "most fitting exchange.""Oh. don't swap! Don't you swap.

that one of that city's chief attractionsis the surf. Philadelpbians must gofifty-six miles to the ocean.

SQUIRRELS SPREAD PLAGUERichmond, Va., Nov. 9, 1910..

If the oriental plague which hasbeen dormant on the Pacific coastfor some years, should ever come

East, the safety of the peoplewould depend upon the extermi¬nation of squirrels and other ro¬

dents more than upon any otherfactor. Such was the assertionmade here recently by Dr. W. C.Rucker, a distinguished scientistwho attended the meeting of theAmry Surgeons' Association here.

Dr. Rucker led the fight againstthe plague on the coast, and isnow carrying on an extensive cam¬

paign, the main object of which isthe extermination of the rodentsin the territory where plague germshave been spread. Dr. Rucker isworking on the principle that theplague is spreading among rodentsand men by fleas, which suck thegerms of the disease from infectedanimals and carry them to healthypersons. He has the approyal ofall scientists familiar with the mat¬

ter in urging the extermination ofrodent as an essential to combatthe plague.

COLLEGEMNSTEADOlFjAILWilliam Allen, 17 years old, of

Brooklin, probably will go to col-

Jege instead of to jail. In conse¬

quence of his having committed a

theft his ambition to become versedin the sciences, especially in wire¬less telegraphy and other branchesof electricity, became known to his

employer and to Chief MagistrateKempner, of Brooklyn. Althoughthe youngster was held in $500 bailto await the action of the grandjury, he was sent to the Children'sSociety and an effort will be madeto have his sentence suspended andto have him sent to college.

Allen was arrested on the com¬

plaint of Thomas Lamb, a druggist.The charge was that on October 29the boy took $55 from a drawer inan open safe in the drug store.Allen has worked for Lamb formore than a year. He was takenbefore Magistrate Kempner andstraightway plead guilty.The story of the youngster's de¬

votion to science was then told.Allen had been reading about wire¬less telegraphy and studying elec¬tricity as much as he could from a

few books and such small pieces ofapparatus as he could buy. He issmall for his age, but has the headof a student. He does not havethe appearance of a thief and his

employer spoke highly of his indus¬try and his obedience.Lamb was much impressed by

the boy's story. He said to theMagistrate:

"I hope it will not be necessaryto send this boy to jail. I am will¬

ing to withdraw the charge againsthim and I will do everything in mypower to have the sentence sus¬

pended. If I can get him free Ishall gladly give money to havehim sent to college. I have alwaysfound him obedient and I think a

chap so eager to learn should be

] encouraged."j The Court felt obliged to holdthe boy, but arranged that heshould be sent to the Children'sSociety so the youngster would no*

have to go to prison.Notice to Taxpayers
