That the figures will prove ' the Increase la the belief of the school authorities. . From Friday to Monday of laet year the school reclsters shewed an Increase of 77t pupils; and from the slse of the opening list It is believed that the In crease recorded next Monday morning - will probably be 800, thereby sustaining me 16 per cent increase over me pre ' ceding year of 1108. ' When the schools closed for the week ' Friday evening there was an Increase 'over the corresponding Friday of last year of 2,805 pupils. This Friday there . were enrolled a total of 16,071 pupils as ' compared with 14,668 recorded last year. i On the opening Monday of this Bsp I tetnber 15,7V pupils were enrolled, be ing an Increase of 1,845 over the 18,951 who presented themselves on' the first Monday of last year. The increase from (Monday to Friday was 4,174, but usually ' the second week Is counted th deter mining; factor' In estimating the real In ' crease In school census and city popu lation. Last year the Increase from Monday to Friday was 714. However, there is a possibility that ' the splendid Increase all around over ' the figures of last year Is due to the 'early arrival of pupils. 'City Superin tendent Rlgler estimates that 8,000 ofj the puplla In .the city schools work In ;m nopyaras aunng ins viouon sea , son. It Is barely possible that a ma jority of these finished their work In ' time for the last few days of ths first . week although the season Itself was not , earlier than usual. The largest attendance for any period of last year was in the third week In February, when it reached 17,284. The figures for the opening week this year .are only 821 leas and the large increase already shown leads the school people . to believe that the highest number of , pupIlK this year will exceed the highest -.number of last year by between 2,000 and 2,600 names.

"You will find that high class work- i men are largely resnonslbln for thn ; comforts that we are able to give to , our patients, aside from the comforts i of furnishing and equipment," said the chief operator this morning at the Lily Dental parlors, when seen in his offices 1 at Third arid Couch streets, . "A bungling dentist would not work xlong In any of our offices. In faot.j no man complained, after trying to work in our laboratory for a week, that what we demanded of a man was that i he be more of a Jeweler than a dentist, I and he said that he had worked in a I ; great many dental offices In this coun- ! try but ho never had . so much expected I ' of him before in the way of mechanical i skill. 7 I "To people who are wearing a partial plate or a bridge, or have teeth trouuTes I , or any Kind, to tnose whose teeth are missing, need building up or straighten . ing, or are in need of dentistry, high class dentistry at a fair price, we In ' vlte to our office to have an examina tion made and a complete diagnosis fur nlshed of the case, free of charge and free from any obligation to have work done unless entirely satisfied that w are in every way capable of giving flrstJ ciann Bervice.

The Golden Eagle glove-buyer was fortunate in securing this "plum" for our store clientele. Numerous eastern , "big store" buyers were reaching for it, but our representative "saw it first" and got the goods. It's well known among glove-makers that thousands of pairs of gloves are returned every season to the factory for repairs; a slight rip or t mite of a teftr; a bit of an imperfection that has passed the scrutiny of a watchful checker is dis covered when the gloves reach the purchaser, or vigilant chief of the glove department They wont pass master as strictly "simon-pura" perfect with our examiners, and are returned to the factory. Just so with all store all over the country. Result is lan accumulation at the factories of hundreds of pairs of slightly imperfect gloves which they are willing to give to good year-round customer "for a song." Just before this store's financial troubles our New York buyer had aecured the accumulation of a large eastern glove factory's mended gloves, splendid values up to $2.50.
