and Thomas Hardware Company, two of j
the largest stores in l,awrenceville, I
were broken into. Kntry was made |
into the Thomas Hardware Company
through the rear door. The outer door 1
of Hie safe was opened, hut no further I
"ntry was made and no booty taken
from either it or the cash drawer nor
tiie store. Kntry was made through
?he front door by hre-king the glass.
While several of the drawers in the
office were opened, nothing as far as
ascertainable was taken, and here also
the cash register was undisturbed. It
is thought that a few boxes <>f ?un
shells were missing, but even thin is,
uncertain.
A telegram was sent to Suffolk for
Branch's bloodhound", and they ar
rived about 1 o'clock. They tool< tiie

OVERCOATS
At super-value prices
One does not have to be a judge of values to
appreciate the worth of the Overcoats in this su
pre-value event. One doesn't have to be an expert
on clothes to appreciate the extra quality. That
is apparent.
The fact that both quality and value are com
bined to the maximum simplifies selling such Over
coats. Practically every worth-while fabric, color
and style is included in one of the greatest assort
ments we have shown in recent years. Every gar
ment is truly a super-value.
A Special $40
Other Coats $28 to $56
