proving.

their meats and will go out of busi-

the truth is there has recently been
too many good butchers in the city.
Joakim Bauer is tearing down his
old lumber shed and is putting up
new one, 18 x 12O, in a most substan-

hand, but we believe proposes to
even enlarge the same.

man, showed up on the streets of
