KEEP BRIGHT AND YOU
WILL KEEP BUSY
Electric light is the magnet that draws trade.
The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business.
People can no more resist the attraction of a bril
liant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist
the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Electrically illum
inated show windows, bright interior and sparkling
Electric Sign getting an advantage over you?
The moth never flutters around the unlighted
candle! Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop
window lighting a necessity, whether they remain
open after dark or not. Competition forces modern
methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with
Electric light will make many a sale "the night
before." Electric light compels attention, makes
easy the examination of your display, shows goods
in detail and fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect the Electric Sign. It is
soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is
lighted burning you name in the public mind. It
is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops
work costs little.

Thieves stole two horses from the
Penman farm at Central Point Mon
day morning, at about 4 a. m. The
theft was soon discovered and a posse
started In pursuit. A short distance
from the place of theft, near Brown's
school house, the party was sighted
and W'hen the thieves found them
selves close pressed they turned the
horses loose. Pursuit was not con
tinued after the horses were recov
ered. Those in pursuit did not come
to close range and so could not give
any description of the thieves.

DEALING IN FUTURES
By Lydla E. Peaster.
"I am sorry, but you will have lo be
held until all the evidence Is 1n."
"Wits I wrong?" the girl quavered,
"I don't see what wrong I"
"No licenses you see," Interrupted n
lawyer.
"But my friends all understood,
and"
"Why were you telling fortunes?"
asked the lawyer, '
Ma Conyers' white throat quivered
ptteotiMly, but no words came,
Chief Clerk Fisher left off wi ll Ing
and looked at this unusual prisoner,
Front the beginning of her arraign
ment, the humiliating moment when
'she was placed In the dock with mis
cellaneous prisoners, her eyes h:id en
countered nothing genial till Fisher
looked at her with commiseration.
Then she, who hnd contradicted her
statements heretofore, gave him an
accurate story.
' The gist of the matter was that her
church committee in planning to raise
money for the building fund, persuad
ed her to exercise her talent for
palmistry. She had charged but ten
cent a reading, the money obtained
having been turned into the church
treasury.
' Then the officer who had served the
warrant on Miss Conyers demised that
a coniplalnt'wus made against defend
ant by Mr. Lionel Mosgrove, a palm
1st. He claimed that she Interfered
with his custom.
i Mr. Mosgrove not having arrived.
I Chief Clerk Fisher turned In her di
rection and agaiiumiet the eyes of the
, unlicensed palmist
Klsner had the reputation of being
a cool man of the world, a wealthy
bachelor with no passion except for
racing oars.
And here on this dull morning he
was taking a decided interest In a
case out of his line.
"Are you known to Mr. Mosgrove?"
"Yes, sir," Mlsa Conyers answered,
miserably.
"Did he complain to you that you in
terfered with his profession?"
She searched the grey eyes; some
thing In them gave her courage.
"He never objected In any way till I
I refused to marry him. He bail
praised my talent and' gave me In
structions before that; when he want
ed me to help him In his work and I
would not he entered a complaint"
The chief clerk began to sort pa
pers, and the girl saw for the first
time the strength and character of his
shapely hands.
Suddenly her voice came, sweet as
a piccolo.
"I have been looking at your hand
It Is such an Interesting one!"
Fisher lifted his grand head with an
abrupt movement.
"A hand of power tempered by
mercy." Miss Conyers continued, lost
to everything except her interest In
the subject: she lifted his left hand
and examined Its lines, "You are a
leader of men; Napoleon without his
desire for conquest; IJncoln without
his visions; Grant without his rigid
Justice " t
Hot voice' quailed as she became
aware of her surroundings. What
would her fate be? How callous the
other prisoners were! Would she be
come that way also? She felt as
though she would faint, but at this
moment her despair was lifted.
"Plaintiff not appearing against
Miss Conyers, the case Is dismissed."
Tears arose In her eyes; she put a
white hand Impulsively to the chief
clerk, who held it closely for a mo
ment, then, with a glad, swift motion,
she left the room.
Outside she moved more slowly;
suddenly a man accosted her.
"Beg pardon," he said breathlessly.
"Frightened, she faced him, but he
removed his cap as he finished res
pectfully: "Mr. Fisher's automobUe Is at your
service. He asked me to drive you to
your home; here Is his card."
Bewildered, she followed the chauf
feur to the big car; climbed Into the
cushioned seat, then with dazed glance
scanned these words penciled on fish
er's visiting card:
"May I come some time to find out
what lies In my future? I shall place
Implicit trust In the decision of such
a wise and gentle sibyl."
