They should be chosen at a store in which you have implicit confidence. We strive earnestly to merit such confidence. Diamonds are like gold when wisely bought. They are worth their cost anywhere on earth and are constantly increasing in value. Our gems will bring their price anywhere any time, and we guarantee them positively.

Dr. Woods Hutchinson Pleases Large Audience Dr. Woods Hutchinson nppenred nt the Keith theatre Saturday evening before a large andienco and gave Ills lecture on the subject "Foods and Foolishness." The lecture was along the line of the prevention of disease and the facts were intermingled with enough humor to keep the undivided attention of the listeners.

He spoke largely along the evolution of the medical profession and especially of the new ideas the men of that profession have upon the diet. He spoke of the necessity of variety of foods and the humor of anyone thinking there is a best food, and brought out the fact that our appetites should guide us in what we eat and whon we should eat, stating that we should eat what we want nnd when we want it. After the lecture was over he called for questions from the audience and many questions were asked and answered. His answers to these questions were sometimes humorous as well as instructive. Dr.

Hutchinson came here undor the auspices of the Twentieth Century club and the club is to be comended for bringing a lecturer of thia kind to the city. He is a personal friend of Dr. Quigley and Dr. Quigley introduced him. ON THE" DR.

Secretary M. E. Crosbj of the Chamber of Commerce received a letter Saturday from a merchant in McPherson county asking in regard to a wholesale and produce house in the city. The inquiry asked especially about the 'proposition of parcels post delivery from here for the benefit of tho poople of that community. The matter will bo referred to the Chamber of Commerce for their action.

The new parcels posts laws have opened up a new field for out of town business by mail and it hns been suggested that it would be a good proposition for the chamber to get a mailing list for the merchants of the city in order that they could get in communication with the people around the country for a mail order business. This is already being widely done by the merchants of Omaha and other cities and tho rntes from here are much cheaper on account of the surrrounding territory's being in the fust zone from here. North Platte could easily compote with the other cities in this, a9 the freight rates here are very little more than to the other cities and in some cases are tho same. The merchant was advised of the North Platte produce house and the mnil order proposition will be taken up and discussed at the next meeting of the chamber. Win From Gothenburg.
