of Electors Estimated at

New York, Oct. 29.—Four years
ago Colonel George Harvey guessed
wrong as to only one state in his clcc-
torial forcast. In 1908 he was only 17
eleciorial votes out of the way, and in
1904 only 22. In April of the present
year, before a single state had indicat­
ed a preference for the nominee, he
closed an analysis of the political sit­
uation, under the heading, “Nobody
for Hughes but the people,” with the
pi. itive prediction that “rightly or
wrongly,” wisely or not, the will of
tin people will prevail and Charles
!■ van Hughes will be the next Repub­
lican candidate for President of the
I 'nited States.
In the North American Review to­
morrow Colonel Harvey will predict
the election of Hughes as certain.
He savs:

Above, for example, we show one
of the beautiful new
Simmons Steel Beds as advertised in the Ladies’ Home Journal
and Saturday livening Post. Come in and let us show you the

bolt in the whole bed to rattle loose. And the finishes are
beautiful.
The quality of our merchandise is the best that human skill
and ingenuity can produce; our enormous buying power lowers
the price to th< point v here they cannot fail to interest even
the most experienced buyers. Let us prove to you that we can
and do sell you the greatest home furnishing values at prices
