REID'S FINE STORE ONE OE THE BIGGEST FURNI- TURE ESTABLISHMENTS larged -- Mr. Reid Has a Stock That Will Please Everyone. Robert J. Reid's enlarged furni- ture store on Princess street is one of the finest in Ontario, and Mr. Reid's old patrons and new ones are daily congratulating this veteran Kingston dealer upon his progressive step, Although in existence, only fifteen years, R. J. Reid's establishment is one of the largest in the city. There is a frontage of 120 feet and a depth of 66 feet, The building is three- storeys high and fire-proof. There is a ten-foot tiled entrance to the store and through this the ground showrooms are reached. The stock is one of the best in Canada and is made up of neriod designs, including Jacobine, Colonial, Adams and Queen Mary and among the finishes are wal- nut, fumed oak, early English, Cir- cassian, Belgian grey, Freach grey and white enamel. The ground floor, including the new wing. is devoted to the exhibi- tion of bed room and dining room furniture. Here the purchaser can procure as good furniture as in any house in the country On the second floor there are show- ings of parlor and living room furnik ture and odd pieces, In an annex to this flat will be found the stock of office furniture, chairs, mattresses, and springs. Taking the stock on the whole, the very latest in furni- ture can be secured. The demands of all can be satisfied and at prices to please all. Mr. Reid is one of the oldest em- balmers of the country and took out his diploma in 1883 from the Roch- ester School of Embalming." He has made a study of this branch of the business and now has all the latest appliances for taking care of the dead. At the rear of the main floor is the show room of caskets. Here are twenty wall cabinets containing all caskets in broadcloth and finished woods. There is also a stock of copper lined and metallic caskets, Adjoining the undertaking room isa new morgue built of Keen cement facings. In the centre is an operat- ing table with a glass top, and ad- justable to any position. The walls and ceilings of the morgue are twelve inches thick and the ventila- tion is from the ceiling. The rooms can be washed out with a hose, and the morgue is built to allow of pro- per fumigation. There are cabin- ets in the far end to hold all equip- ment, and on one side is a 'glass wall cupboard which contains drugs and instruments. At the front of the building, on the second floor, are two large rooms furnished for funeral services. Onc is a large living room of home-like appearance. The floors are of inlaid mahogany and walnut and are cov- ered with oriental rugs. The rooms allow of absolute privacy and many funerals are held from them. An elevator that runs to the top storey is convenient to the rooms where the funerals are held. Adjoining the morgue on the ground floor is a large vehicle room, which contains car, hearse, carriage and buggies. Alongside of this is the stable, with five horses, which is the latest word in sanitation. The harness room is at the end and over- head is a workshop where the uphol- stering and repairing is done. From the office of the store all departments and entrances are to be seen. Mr. Reid has in his room a tube that rums to ' the sidewalk and through this messages can be convey- ed from the street. He has also an attachment whereby the door can be opened by pressing an electric but- ton. The tube and button can be operated from a library on the se- cond floor. Mr. Reid had intended holding 2 big re-opening but he has been un- able to do so. extends a hearty welcome to the public to visit his store to see the stock which he will willingly show at any time. He first occupied a small store next to the opera house and later re- moved to the present site. He has built up a big trade and lias a build- ing that adds much to the appear- ance of the street.

' ROOSEVELT IS ANGRY AT THE POOR DEFENCE PLANS OF THE U.S. Wilson, Former and Others.--De- Assails President President Taft vocates Of Unpreparedness. ; Chicago, Nov. 20.--Colonel The dore Roosevelt has been interviewed at Oyster Bay by a staff correspond- ent of the Chicago Daily News and has taken occasion to criticize Presi- dent Wilson, former President Taft and others. The former President of the United States, in the course of his remarks to the correspondent of the Daily News, declared that in his belief the advocates of half-pre- paredness are more dangerous to the body politic than William Jennings Bryan and Henry Ford. "He was intense," says the Daily News man, "and the Roosevelt teeth bit with a noise as he chopped his words and walked about his study in his Oyster Bay home." Col, Roosevelt is quoted as say- ing: "This country is in quite as much danger from the advocates of half-preparedness as from the advo- cates of unpreparedness. There has never been a more pitiable spec- tacle than the. peace-at-any-price man for the last five years, under the leadership of men like Bryan, David Starr Jordan and Henry Ford. "These gentlemen aim to 'Chin- aly' America, make it the China of the Occident, and plunge us into the depths of degradation, from which the best and wisest Chinese reform- ers- are now plainly trying to raise China herself, But the very absur- dity, the unspeakable silliness of their attitude, make them less dan- gerous than the advocates of half- preparedness, such as Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taft." Col. Roosevelt then had something to say of the continental army idea. "The proposed continental army, for instance," he said, "is thoroughly un- democratic and fis a simple imita- tion of a failure.
