Many of our competitors will probably tell you that pointed toes are entirely out of style—because they’ve made the mistake to order all their Shoes on the new, short, broad and often clumsy round toe. We have this same short round toe shape. called “Bull Dog” or “English” toe (and ours is the prettiest shape in the market)—but it is not adapted to all shapes of feet. We have fully a dozen other shapes of toe, from the sharpest needle to the broadest common sense shape, and can fit any foot, please any taste and suit any purse. : We can save you from $1 to $2 a pair on your Fine Shoes—because we buy more of them than any other 5 Washington houses do put together.

The new council, is com- posed, “as was the former one, of three republi- cane—Councilmen Kerr, Plummer Carr and T. dcindernts—De, TZ, M. Baldwin and J. A. Brown. Tye mayor sent In thé following nominations, ‘which confirmed: were Bailiff, B. ¥. Robey; supervisor, Walter A. Mil- stead; assessors—first wand, Charles A. Pritchard; second ward, W. A. Fairall; third ward, E. Bert Carr. J. R. Griffith was appointed deputy balltff. Mayor Phelps sent in his annual message. He in- cluded in the first part of his message a statement, repared by Town Treasurer George W. Waters, Jee showing the receipts and expenditures of the town for the past year. Six hundred dollars, the mayor sald, had been expended for repairs und re- newals of board walks, $150 more than the amouut of taxes for the year when collected. While ad- mitting the need of new board walks and the re- pair or the old ones, he sald some economical plan should be devised ‘for continuing the work. He also sald there were $1,314 taxes due in arrears, and urged the passage’ of a revolution requiring these taxes to be paid by May 1. He advised the retirement of one-half of the issue of sidewalk ‘bonds, inasmuch as the 1889 sidewalk sinking fund amounted to $5,323.27, and thus reduce the side- Walk tax from 10 to 5 cents on the one hundred Nas. Inasmuch as the limit had about been reached on permanent street improvements, the mayor rec- ommended that the remainder of the fund be used economically for temporary repair work, and that the work done be as good as possible. He recom- mended the scraping and rolling of Montgquery, Sth and 9th streets and the use of oyster shells thereon, In order to give a continuous hard road- bed of about three miles at a small cost. He ad- vised the filling up of the holes and low places on Washington avenue and the cleaning out of the gutters on Main street, saying that it generally took 1 per cent expended for repalr work per an- num-on macadamized streets to keep them in re- pair. The mayor also recommended the passage of 4 resolution calling on the county commission- ers to pay over to the town the $2,000 due it, ai 10 per cent of $20,000 appropriated for road work in this county. ‘The amount received by the cou In taxes, Inciuding tax on mortgages, from Laur this: year, the mayor stated, would amount to $13,000. On the subje of fire protection the mayor be- Neves that the town should have water works and instead of a chemical fire apparatus. The yr submitted a proposition for supplying water for $2,479.50, with n guarantee running expense of $20 per year, and_a delivery capacity of more than 7 sides 2 reservoir storage He thought a good de with hand grenades, ‘The mayor suggested that as three assessors appointed . this year resolution be passed desigrating them to teke the census of L 2 well as the assessment.
