Lever Than Ever.

Last Saturday we were shown through
McIlwains general merchandise establish.
ment and were really surprised TO find that
it had grown to suchI mammoth proportions.
He now has such an immense stock on hand
that he is forced to occupy the whole Of the
lower story of his building. By looking
through his store and learning the prices one
see the advantage of an adherence to the cash
system. His prices are extremely low, espe-
cially in the boot and shoe department. In
this line he has fine selection Of everything
that can be askedfor, and the prices asked in
cash were SO low as to completely astonish
us Call around and see him even if you
don't want to buy.

A short time ago we published an item
which said if farmers would pknt flax
seed in each hill of potatoes no bugs would
ever trouble the s'murphies. A Vermont
farmer in letter to paper says he saw the
same item going the rounds and he tried it.
He says that he now wants to swap flax and
bugs with the man who started that plan.
He planted fax with potatoes, and the flax
came up first, and the bugs roasted on it
waiting for the potatoes to come, and they
were thicker ON them than on any others he
had

The baby rolls upon the floor
Kicks up his tiny feet,

The dog, attached to a tin pail,
Goes bowling down the street,
And, as he madly bites his tail,
He maketh both ends meet.

Cuts on his ears and feet,
And grinds them in a sausage big
