A Complete Establishment.

There are but few towns of equal or
greater size, that have as many large
business houses as Abilene. This state
ment has become and will remain tru-
ism. And among those that stand at
the head of the list, the firm of Irion Il
Armitage is prominent. We enjoyed
the pleasure of being shown through
this immense establishment, and with
the exception of clothing and groceries,
everything that is needed for the COM
plete furnishing of a home is kept in
stock. Queensware, Willowware, Tin
ware, Stoves, &C.; lamps, sewing ma
chimes, organs, tables, chairs, ETC.,
fill the lower floor. The upper floor is
given up to furniture, and all qualities
sndrstyles are represented. Furniture
In sets and single pieces at prices to
suit the purchaser. IriOn & Armitage
stand at the head of house-furnishing
firms, and those who contemplate be
ginning housekeeping as well as those
who are old and experienced in the needs
of a comfortable home, should remem-
Der this fact. The firm will take great
pleasure in showing all interested
through their establishment, and the
time so devoted by the sight-seer viii
be well expended.

Dr.. King, of this city, successfully
set a dislOcated shoulder for Mrs. Lee,
of Cheever township, last Monday. The

will be psch,d.
Messrs. A. E. Bishop s. Co. join our
business community unlS week W1ln

have about the finest business location
in the city, and their goods will be dis
played to excellent advantage. Mr..
Bishop is one of Abilene's active and
promising young business men, and the
REFLECTOR heartily wishes him success
in his venture.
We heard a farmer from Cheever say,
last Tuesday, that he carried his wheat
right through Abilene to Enterprise,
and thereby made $3.50 per load. And
this is only one illustration of dan
gerous condition of things. Can't Abb
lene's grain and stock men afford to
pay as much for those two products as
Enterprise, Chapman OrSolomonparties:
This is a business matter, and should
receive the attention of those interested
in the advancement of Abilene, whose
markets should be as good, if not bet
ter, than any other point in the county
Farmers are not slow in finding the
best market, and they are not backward
in patrOnizing that market.

that there is trouble ahead.

the NJ. Z. Church last Saturday night

seems that incorporating has not helped
matters in this particular.
The Chapman correspondent to the
Enterprise Register is very much eXer-
cised over little article published in
the REFLECTOR a short time ago, simp-
ly as Joke, which had not the slightest
reference to us in any way. We simply
desire to inform him that he must not
be mistaken in the party referred to, for
we have not ''been left in that partlc-
ular as yet. When we are there will
be plenty of time to give notice.

1t is said that our City Council COM
pares favorably with any legislative
body that ever existed and judging from
the great length and quantity Of0rdi-
nances enacted this is true. But we
have heard somewhere that the fewer
laws a people could be governed by the
better. Perhaps this is not so.
Some dastardly william on last Satur-

CONTRARY

To time hOnOred and almost uni
versal practice, the Opera House Book
Store doesn't want to tell the people
that it has the
LARGEST HOLIDAY STOCK
that has ever been or ever will be
brought to Abilene, because the state
ment might be considered a slight, very
slight, deviation from the fixed and I'M
changeable rules of truth. Nor does it
seek to knock the bottom out of the
truthful tub by claiming to sell at
LOWER PRICES THAN ANYONE ELSE.
But large Holiday stock of all kinds
of goods-from the baby's rattle and
musical tin horn to the finest plush
articles-is to be found at the Opera
House Book Store. And the goods will
be sold at very reasonable prices. You
can materially help
SANTA CLAUS
in his arduous duties by calling at the
Opera House Book Store and looking
at the Holiday goods there displayed and
| learning prices.

The corn in this neighborhood is yield
ing well, and there is yet considerable
amount remaining in the fields unhusk-
ed. Most of the farmers are feeding a
great many cattle and hogs and will not
sell any corn. The result will doubtless
be higher prices.
This is fine weather for corn husking,

opportunity to complete his fall work.

storms were over and the gentle spring
had once more come.
