' Putman's Drug Store RAILROAD FILM COMES! MPROVEMENTS IN POOL HALL ROOMING HOUSE FACILITIES PROVIDED. Cigar and Pool Hall Emporium Made Over Considerably. J. F. O'Connell has been making a number of chances in his business Jroperty at the corner of Depot and efterson streets. ' Since prohibition became effective he has removed the nartitions that formed the bar room on Jefferson street and included that in his billiard and pool room, giving more light and more space for the tables. In changing from a rooming house to a hotel he has arranged a very comfortable lobby or. the Depot street side. The front is all of glass and in side the arrangement is decidedly comfortable and hotel like. The "hot dog;" window of Charley Miller re mains in the same location and just opposite it is a large soda fountain, while running almost across the lobby is an extended cigar case. Be hind the case are shelves containing smokers' goods. Entrance to the bil liard room is between the cigar cases and the short order window. The whole interior has been gone over and retintcd and brightened. Up stairs the process of re-arrangement has continued and general improve ment has been made. v. call at the store and that evening as she is leaving he conironta her and threatens to have her discharged un less she will go with him. Desperate for fear she will lose this place she reluctantly agrees. . (At the time Winne had called up on Faxon, Bertha was present and had taken a violent dislike to the girl because Faxon had seemed to take an interest in her.

Philanthropy takes many forms, but that which accomplishes the greatest good is the philanthropy which aids the less fortunate to improve their self respect. Money given for li braries and art museums does a few persons good, but assistance given to those in dire need which directs them on an upward path has a much wider effect as the result in thou sandfold, as it tenches the recipient of aid to assist others. - . That form of philanthropy is the kind possessed by Marshall Faxon in the Gold Seal drama ",Att the Shadows Fall." Marshall Faxon is a philan thropist and in order to carry out hi work is in charge of the Municipal Employment Bureau. In this position he comes in contact with the seamy side of life and is thus onaibled to give much needed assistance to those- who really deserve same. His finnm-ee, Borthn Winston is a society girl. She does not like the idea of Faxon as sociating with what she thinks is the lower class and she finally remon strates with himJCor taking such un intorest in tho work. To try nnd bet ter understand his work she calls on him at the office, but is not able to ba of any benefit to him. Winnie Perry, a . hnnl-woi-king stenographer, is persecuted by the at tentions of Eddie Winston. She docs not know Winston's rcnl mime and in order to force his attentions upon the girl Winston succeeds in having her discharged from different positions. Tho girl is penniless nnd is forced to nccept Eddie's attentions to a certain extent. One day a friend gives her n card of the Municipal Employment Bureau and tells her that Faxon is n friend indeed to the poorer people and will doubtless help nor out of her troubles. She calls upon Faxon tell, ing of her trouble and persecution and he readily agrees to assist her. She is given a noto to the manager of a large store nnd secures a position as n stenographer.

Feet are growing larger, and then some. Boot makers have statictics to prove it; chiropodists bear witness to it, and n canvass of the leading shoe ner chants m the city places the fact be yond tne shadow of a doubt. Thut is, the American woman's feet are larger; nobody has inksn the time or trouble to determine the statue of 'he American man's pedal extremities. Nobody seems to care. But the Manufacturers who have; speni a meumc in tne production of women s lootwear arc deploring the fact that if things keep on, the Ene- imi Humeri win nave to rennguish the palm for large feet to their American, sisters. They hold outdoor exercising huh mc men neei responsible. "Women no longer demand shoes a size smaller than their feet," said one dealer in women's shoes yesterday "But 90 women out of 100 insist on shoes with the French heel. Vith the heel raised on the front of the foot necessarily spreads and demands a Neither Goods nor 1 Prices are Ever Beaten It is always a satisfaction to feel that anything you have bought in the line of drugs or sundries is wholly reliable.
