COST.

l will close out my entire stock Of
boots, shoes and rubber goods at cost.
This comprises large variety OF fine
goods. Great care has been taken in
the selection Of goods adapted to the
wants of the people. Ny stock of
hats ani caps is the largest and best
selected that can be found in town,
and the prices are down TO the bot
tom. My stock of ready-ihade cloth
ing, furnishing goods and dry goods is
large and complete and | will sell
them low enough to satisfy the closest
buyer. Buyers, consult your own in
terest and ascertain where you can
buy the most goods for your money.
To the laboring classes l would say
that goods are low; don't be con-
trolled by monopolists, but assert your
independence and your right to lay
out the money you earn where you
can get the best value for it. You will
find me at the wheel selling goods
lower than my competitors dare offer
Space forbids my giving prices, so call
and see me for | mean business.
Money | must have. | have also a

itself has spent its force by constant
exercise upon them. The outspoken
slanderer, although he coward-like
stabs his victim from behind because
he dare not face him, is not as low
down as he who lays in ambush with
insinuations bristling like the quilts of
fretful porcupine. His poison is both
epidemic and contagious, scarcely the
latter however for he seldom dares to
touch anything or anybody. Envy
and officious hypocrisy meet, and in
an obscene embrace form d poisonous
slanderer, who steals upon his victim
with no note of warning but with
stealthy tread and poisoned arrows.
He even goes SO far as to approach with
masked face, wearing the garb of
friendship. He writes an anonymous
letter perhaps to the friends of the vic
tim instead Of going frankly to them
as friend would if he had any occa-
sion, or any truth to impart. He at
times mourns over the insinuated
faults of Others, and exaggerates every
appearance or suggestion of evil while
his soulless carcass glows with delight
at the subtle poison he is eiecting and
which he expects will reach his victim
and friends. Often lie counsels will
