A New Form of Kluckmall. A new terror for the friends, relatives and subordinates of eminent personages has lately been devised by fine-art publishers. A firm of this description obtains permission of some eminent personage to publish his portrait nodifQcult matter in most cases. With this permission is obtained a list, of all those who, in the opinio the said eminent one, will be hki-iy to take a copy. To each of the latter is sent a circular inviting' subscriptions.

It may be a portrait of Gen. in which case all the officers who have ever served under the general, or have any chance of getting anything out of him, are marked down as victims. In one circular that I have before me there is a list of those who have already subscribed to the general's portrait, and it is astonishing to see the unanimity among all ranks to obtain a copy of that work of art. Every single rank is represented in the list, from colonel down to subaltern. This is very good business for the pub lishers, and all very well for the gen- ei-al, who practically gets his portrait published by a subscription among his friends and juniors, but it is nasty for all the people who can only refuse to pay up if they are prepared to take the consequences of giving offense.

Elon S. Clark, he assisting Rev Coutler in a series of meetings at the Baptist church, returned to their home in McPkerson, to make arrange ments to go to Belvidere, 111. Dr Fulton went there as a guest of honor to the church, and in all that such a statement implies, to preach the 30th anniversary sermon of the church. Dr. Fulton was pistor of the church from lS6StolSb, and so much en dearei himself to the church and community that his name has been perpetuated almost as a household word, Out here Dr.

Fulton is looked upon as being the father of the denomination in the west, and is quoted as authority on Baptist usage and church law. His nrst and only we3tern charge is at McPherson, where he went in 1SS4 in the boomy deys. Nothing can better illustrate the power of the grand old man of 80 years than his work at McPherson. He begaa the erectien of a fcl.lXX) edifice out there, and pushed it to completion in the face of that nnan- cial collapse that swept all over West- em Kansas, and the entire country as well.

"I hear," said a deaf man, who came in with him, "the your 7.50 suits are even better than vou advertise them to be." "I walked in" said a man on crutches, "to see one of those $7.50 suits that my neighbor got here this morning." "I'd like to get my hands on one of those $7.50 suits that you're advertising," said a man who had lost both arms. "I've got to be economical now," said an ice man, 'so I thought I'd run in and see those $7.50 suits." All sorts of men are buying these suits, for every man who looks at them from a blind man to an ice man whose eyes magnify a ten pot rid chunk into a twenty pound bill, says there the best thing for the money or anything like the money they ever saw. These suits are great value. Thcreare heavy weight all wool cheviots, cassimeres with wear woven clean through, from face to back, and homespuns with style and wear for the price you usually pay for style or wear.

We want to double our last year's business. We're making prices that would sell every man in McPherson and the surrounding country a suit, if he'd take pains to look at these things and not guess that they're not a bit better than he can get anywhere.
