There was a large attendance | of members of the order and many who are members of other orders. The hall was appropriately draped in somber cloth, | the colors of the Druids and small Ameri- | can flags, while over the stage appeared in golden letter, “In Memoriam, U. A. O. D.” On the stage there were thirty-six ant chairs, trimmed with smilax and each bearing the number of the grove of which the deceased was a member, and at the top of each chair wase an electric bulb. These were lighted simultaneously and kept burning until the grand secretary of | the order, James F. Martinoni, read the | roll ‘of the honored dead, and as each name was announced one of the lights was extinguished to symbolize that while all may be in the full enjoyment of life, when the summons comes the light of hu- man existence is suddenly extinguisheds D. Bamman, president of the general com- mittee, was the chairman of the day, and after the grand officers of the Grand Grove and those of the Grand Circle of | California, each wearing the elaborate re- galia of the order, and accompanied by the orator and the eulogist, entered the bhall in a body, Ritzau's orchestra render- ed Chopin's funeral march.

The collar, the slash and the buttons are there in an- swer to no rational need; it is not a com- mon clipate nor a common racial need | of protection against climate that they | represent, but a common civilization | whose form and ritual they mutely con- fess. Over this entire area th: whe aspire to be of the Brahmin caste deck their heads for wedding. funeral and feast with a black cylindrical covering suited, | 8o far as we can discern, neither to avert | the weapon of the adversary or the dart of the rain, nor to provide a seat whereon man may sit and rest himself. And as for the women contained within the same area, we behold that the amplitude of the sleeve, the disposition of the belt and the outline of the skirt all obey the rise and fall of one resistless tide which neither moon nor seasons control.—Atlantic Mag- azine, OLDBER BOWEN % CO Monday Tuesday Wednesday Eggs—selected G G dozen 32 }.;c Tea—flandarin Nectar— 45¢ Bee Ceylon—reg’ly 6oc Ib Coffee—Pasha blend— 30¢ Popular as ever— 2 Ibs 53¢ reg’ly 35¢ Ib Mince meat—atmore's— == 65¢ 5 Ib pail—reg’ly 75¢ Baked beans— 2 cans 25€ Oneida Counity-N.Y 3 cans 50€ reg’ly 15c—20c can—plain Currant jelly— 2 for 45¢ Oneida C ommumty—‘l Y-transparent —pure—reg’ly 25c glass Pumpkin-squash Oneida Community—N.Y— for pies—reg’ly 20c—3 Ib can Pim-Olas—Baby— 40z Olives and pimientos~6 oz 3 for —reg’ly 1oc—20c bottle Pine-apple—Hawaiian 2 for 45¢ reg’ly 25¢ can—sliced “ 15¢ * Booth’s— z2for 5¢ xrated 25¢ reg’ly 15¢ can—Booth's— 2 for 25¢ cocktail SC $165 I0C 50¢ Fard dates—reglly akcd 10¢ Apricots—evaporated 15¢ Fancy fruit—reg’ly 20c Ib Sardines—Imported ase Boneless—reg’ly 3oc can China preserved ginger 25c Tender stems—reg’ly 35¢ jar Holland cocoa 8oc Van Houten—reg'ly 95¢ Ib Salmon—reg'ly 1 lbcan 12d¢ 10¢C Selected fish— 3 for s0¢ reg’ly 2 Ib can 20¢ Claret—Mountain Vineyard— 65c Dilute one third—reg’lv $1 gallon Whisky—Hermitage Ry=— $1 0id Crow bourbon— reg’ly $1 25 bottle—reg'ly $5 gal 4 Whisky—D. €.
