Fancy Vests
A
Nothing dresses you up like
a Fancy Vest. Makes you
look like you had a new suit
on - or makes your new suit
look better if you have one on.
Better look into the matter
here: we have—and there
isn’t a better looking lot of
vests in the country. And
they’ll wear as well as they
look—and cost less than
you Id ever imagine.

SELLING THEIR DIAMONDS,
Many IVrsfori.'; Forced to Convert Their
I'm ions Stones Into Casli.
Many people In New York have been
selling back to Maiden Lane dealers
: diamonds and other precious stones
bought before ihe financial troubles
began, and it is said that one whole
sale house has within a month bought
more than $1,000,000 worth of dia
monds in the form of necklaces,
I brooches, rings and other ornaments,
| which wealthy people have surrender
ed in order to obtain cash.
‘ Diamonds have again been proved
! to be the kind of property most eas
ily converted into cash,” said an im
I porter on Saturday.
“The people with diamonds have
been luckier than some who had theii
; money in the banks, because with the
diamonds cash has always been ob
tainable, but people have not always
been aide to get their money out o;
i banks.”
The resale of articles from family
jewelry chests is.putting back into tin
! market some of the finest specimens
of stones and is believed to some ex
. tent one trouble of the dealers, who
for several years have been worried
by the difficulty of getting sufficient
supplies of high-grade stones.

I had formed it for a closer human tic

how its principles of charity, justice
and brotherly love had caused it to
grow wonderfully during its compara

He declared the order knew neither
sect nor creed, hut is as broad :.s
its cardinal principles; while it. erect
ed no insurmountable barriers to fel

American institution, and that wher
ever was planted the Amercan flag
the members wore gathered to pay |
their tribute of respect, to the memory
of their dead brothers.
Mr. Nndenbousch’s address command j

very graceful little speech of the iu

Mr. Walter's theme was the meaning f

oi life, atid he handled his subject in
an eloquent manner. He said that the
question of the meaning of life had
treen asked in all ages and answered
in many ways. But the true meaning
j of life was to live it so that men
might pass into the greater world be
yond without the shadow of regret;
that they might command the respect
of themselves and their brothers.
At the conclusion of Mr. Walter’s
address Mrs. F. M. Richey sang “Home
So Blest,” after which the closing
ceremony of the lodge and the doxol
ogy were given, the audience joining
in singing the doxology. The bene
diction was pronounced by Rev. Mr.
