Boot & Shoe. HIT e. CUP
Establishment known as the
BIG BOOT. Thinking it
singular that any sane man shod
use such unheard Of expressions
during such general depression
and hard times. our curiosity be-
came excited. and we entered the
Establishment to enquire the
cause of this mans high spirits
and queer expressions; but Won
der! our spirits began to 60 up
ward when Mr.. Nj. informed us
he had just received his Spring
Stock of Boots and Shoes, Hats
and Caps, and for CASH, was
selling them lower than ever. In
looking over his stock (Which we
assure our readers is completely.
we we've surprised to see a Splcn-
did ladies' serge fine finish full
Polish Lace Boot for only $50,
something unknown since before
the war. And we really think,
from the quality and finish of the
goods, and The prices marked on
them (Which are in plain figures
so all may know, that Mr.. NJ. is
selling his goods close on the
heels of the general decline in
prices.
We wish to call particular at
tcntion to his stock of Hats and
Caps, which appears to be very
full now, and yet he informs us
that he is expecting Il heavy
invoice from New York this week,
and when they are in he will
have the Largest & Finest
stock of Fur, Silk, Felt, Wool,
Panama, Lcghorn, Palm and
Straw in town. AS his is the only
House that Hats and Caps are a
speciality Of course he can sell
the cheapest.
We wish again to call special atten-
ton to his Custom shop. Mr.. Camp
bell is generally known to make the
neatest and best fitting Boot of any
man in Cedar county; and the very best
| brands Of French Calf and Kip are now
used in the Shop we were shown some
Calf costing $3.50 per ID. at wholesale,
! and we predict a heavier shop business
than ever. Mr.. Ed. Weeks gives his

neatness and workmanlikc manner in

DECORATION DAY.-As no previous
arrangements had been made. the
dawning of the beautiful day that has
been set apart in commemoration of our
dead heroes, brought the unpleasant re-
Election that in the patriotic town of Tip
ton, the ceremonies incident to the occa-
sion would probably be neglected. But
the teachers and scholars of the public
schools came to our relief, and through
their sole efforts the appropriate cere-
monies were fttingly performed.
Beautiful flowers were solicited and OBJ
tanned in abundance by the children;
and at five O'Clock, +. NJ, an artillery
salute aud the ringing of bells, gathered
subdued company around the soldiers
monument. Then came the children
laden with their floral offerings, and
drew up in a: body Immediately about
the Enclosure. The exercises were as
follows:
|. l. Music by the cornet band.
2. Prayer, by Rev. U. Eberhart,
3. Music.
4. Decoration of the monument,
which was hung with boquets and
beautiful floral devices from top to bot
tom.
5. Address, by Rev. J. w. Hender
| sOil.
8. Music.
:. Bencdiction.
| There was something Of spontaneity
and enthusiasm about the observance o
this Decoration, or, rs we prefer to cal
it, Commemoration Day, that has
sometimes before seemed wanting, ant
which was an important element in tn
success of the efforts made.

MUsICAL.-The sight SO common in
the cities and equally unusual in our
country village, of a band of strolling
italian musicians, was to be seen here
for two or three days last week. The
trio of little performers-thee eldest prob
ably fourteen of age-were equipped
with two violins and an old fash Toned
harp, and displayed good deal of skill
in their management, rafting off the
tunes with the odd .nonchalance which
they acquire from having had an instru-
ment in their hands fully three-fourths
of their natural lives. But when it
came to collecting the nickels-no
careiessness then, and nobody neglect

REMARKs.-The following are only 8
few of the remarks made by persons
who have examined the quality and
prices of Bagley and Ingman's large
new stock of Queensware and Glass
ware:
"What beautiful ware"
"How nice it looks ~
at is the prettiest ever saw In Tip
TOM
How can you sell your ware so
cheap? 1t Is lower than I ever paid
before the war;
Hope you are not selling at cost, as
all must live"

say that although they sell at very
close margin, they are satisfied.

OBITUARY.

Died, May 2Jth 1870, MARY NJ, daughter of
James and Mary Horn. aged Il years months
and u days.
Mary Malinda Horn was born in Bed
ford county, Pa, March LIST, 1919, and
came with her parents to Iowa, in 1854.
They located in Bethel community in
the year 1854. Malinda was happily
converted to God at Il meeting held by
Rev. e. skinner, at Bethel, during the
winter of lSGG-'G7, and joined the Nj. T..
Church. She lived a consistent Chris
tan during the remainder Of her life.
Malinda's place at church, class meet
ing and sabbath School, was never
vacant when health and circumstances
would permit. Malinda was taken viO-
lentiy i'll with the heart disease, March
18th, and fingered at the point of death
until May 18th, 6 O'Clock a. M, when
God released her from pain. She be-
came very happy during the latter part
of her illness, and frequently exclaimed
that angels were singing around her
bed. She entreated every one to meet
her in Heaven, and said she wanted to
90 with Jesus and be an angel in lleav-
en-. Malinda repeatedly declared that
Jesus and angels were calling to her,
Come home, Linda; come home, Lin
da.n When she would mildly say, II
will. Thus Malinda left Us in the tri-
umphs of living faith and went home to
reap her reward at Gods right hand.
We appropriately append the follow
ing: ~
Sister, thou vast mid AMI lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze;
Pleasant as the air of ming,
When it floats among the trees.

Peaceful in the grave 50 low;
Thou no more wilt join our number,
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
| Dearest sister. thou hast left us.
Here thy loss We deeply feel;
Bat IT'S God that has bCreft us.
He can still our sorrow heal.
Yet a ain we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled;
Then in Heaven with joy to greet thee,
| Where no farewell tear is shed.
