SUDDEN DEATH
OF Mrs. Nary Johnson, Last Night

Mrs. Mary johnson, the beloved
wife of Capt. Eric johnson, died at her
residence in this city of heart disease
at ten o'clock last night. Her death
was a terrible shock to her family.
She had long suffered from heart dis
ease, but had borne her sufferings
with fOrtitude, few realizing the
fact that she had so serious
malady. For week or so
she had been ailing, but yester-
day felt much better, in fact unusually
well, being up and around all day.
Last evening she felt faint and lying
down passed panlessly away, leaving
a sorrOwing husband and three chill
dreR, two girls and boy.
She was the oldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. ii. b. Parker, and celebrated
her Bird birthday last Monday. The
family have the sincere sympathy of a
large number of friends and acquaint
ances who will hear with regret of
the untimely death of one who was
held in high esteem by the entire COM
munity.

No community ever prospered, no
town ever grew, without some COM
bined effort for the general good
without some expenditure of money.
The towns that have happened TO
possess men who have worked to-
gether for the general good have
forged ahead, while those who have
been content to sit down and let for
tune come, have gone to decay, or
have not progressed. People who
would progress must do something
must take some chances. At this age
it is hard to call to mind a town that
has grown to any importance without
having put out some sort of eXertion
without having done something other
than sit down and let prosperity come
or go, according to its whim. Towns
and communities, as well as inviduals,
must seize opportunities.

ure on the restaurant bills of fare as
''sea bass" or Spanish mackerel." )"
The way those big fish are caught is
simple enough. With their big suck
er like mouth they lie snoozing at the
bottom of the water and pay little at
tention to hook or line. A stout line
is fitted with four graphing hooks,
and this simple apparatus is trawled
till it comes in contact with the slug
gish carcass of the sturgeon, the grap-
pie inserting itself in any part it
strikes, when the unwieldy fish is
hauled alongside, killed and t6wed to
shore.

ONLY A QUESTION

UNLY A QUESrlUN
OF TIME.
You may doubt it, but in
course of time you will ap-
prove the popular verdict by
going yourself where the
commercial tide sweeps the
trade to; you may trade else
where because habit makes
it natural; you may dismiss
this from your mind because,
well, perhaps, because you
don't think it worth while to
remember it; but i'm course
of time the cold truth will
force itself upon you, that
while you sweat and save in
one way, you are extrava-
giant i'm another, and as soon
as you realize this fact you
will turn a new leaf and in
vestigate before you spend
your coin, and that is all l
ask of you. Investigate +!
Give me a chance to prove
to you that you can get fresh
er goods where goods are
sold quick, and that you can
buy goods cheaper where
the enormous quantities sold
justify a comparatively
small profit and consequent
ly low prices. Perhaps it is
unnecessary to state here
what place | refer to, be-
