WOE BETIDE US. Old Madame Thebes, the Paris mystic and seer who predicted the San Francisco earthquake not, more than 24 hours after everybody had read about it,, has come forward with her predictions for 1914. The ma dame's predictions are always inte resting because they bespeak a vivid imagination. " Madame Thebes , is . a confirmed pessimist. Shecan see nothing but gloom for 1914 Here are some of her predictions: ' . The planet Mars will predominate, with war always menacing. England will suffer critical perils in India. London will be threatened By nooua, "catastrophe taking place as a-result of the inundations which will arouse the pity of the whole civilized world. Portugal " is to see a restoration of the mbnarcny. ; Austria- will be sorely tried with rioting. ' There will be bloodshed and fire in the . streets of "Vienna,, the situation will' be.-. av,en worse than vthan in 'Hungary, and the. Austro Hungary dynasty will be in ' grave peril. A. Germany will experience a severe upheaval, bringing profound changes in the character of its national life. Italy will witness a new pope, who will be friendlier to the monarchy. It will ' he the good fortune . of Russia to promote peace in , the Balkans. France is to be afflicted with scan dals, riots, bloodshed and industrial troubles in the northeast. Mme Thebes should not be taken ' too seriously by the people who worry about such things. There is always one -consolation. She tells' of things that possibly may happen, but no things that are likely f) happen. In her prediction for 1913 she didn't leave enough of the United States to All a coal scuttle. She had it burned, flooded and shaken to pieces. According to her prediction for this year we should now all be dead. She certainly predicted us out of busi- ness, but Bhe wasn't backed up by Divine Providence. That is usually the drawback. A person with a sense of humor can read the Madame and smile. Those who are downcast or morbid Bhould always leave her literature alone.

SHERWOOD WILLIAMS, 30t ' : Cashier. ; Special Church Notice. Special music,, and an important announcement at the eevning service of the Presbyterian church tomorrow. The front-lacing prinicple (originated by The H. W. Gossard Co.) has accom plished much for the comfort and con venience of woman's dress. Of even greater importance than front lacing, however, has been the crentus displayed in the actual designing and making of Uossard Uorsets. So outstanding and thorough has been this work that, great as the front lacing principle is, the Gossard method of design and manufacture transcends it, and the two combined occupy a po sition so commanding that they are now regarded as an International vogue. : Regardless of the cost every Gossard 1 Corset conforms to but one standard; in style, workmanship and wearing! service.
