your attention il called to an adj

Offering q complete set Of sanliiy
scales for rs cents. This extremely
low price Is made to get new GUS
toners, for to every one to whom \
set of scales Is sold they mail their
catalogue, giving full description anu
wholesale prices of watches, jewelry,
sewing machines, books, aud y large
variety OF useful household articles.
They give such unquestioned bank
references as should Insure every Que
that the firm is entirely reliabie.
In some parts of the state, a. We
see by our exchanges, the heavy
Winds that prevailed II week ago ulu
much injury to the wheat crop. But
from what we have seen III driving
over portion of our county and from
inquiries made of farmers, we are OF
the opinion that the wheat crop OF
Stevens county has been damaged
but little, IL any, by the Winds.
Wheat Is looking finely, especially
that sown by the press drill seeder.
That machine was just the thing for
this dry season, and those farmers
who used II were fortunate indeed.
Messrs Wells Bros. & Hanson
would especially invite the attention
of the ladies to complete line OF
novelties In dress fabrics. The new
combination goods are very attractive
and include the new shades and
latest designs.
IL any one wishes to see some fine
colts he should visit the farm OF Mike
Igo, In Darnen. He has some twelve
or fourteen, ranging from sucking
colts to three years old, as likely ones
as can be found in the county. In
fact, we doubt IL any farmer in this
part of the state can show as many
good colts as those of Mr.. Igo. And
besides the colts, Mike has a large
number of graded Shorthorn heifers
and COWS that are hard to beat. A
recent visit to his place convinced US
that he knows how to run farm.
We were very pleasantly entertained
while there.
Street Supervisor House Is making
some substantial Improvements about
town, by way of graveling streets,
putting down street crossings, con-
structing sidewalks, &c. Now II the
city council would order the con-
struetion of that much-talked-o
sewer, their names would go down to
posterity with the great benefactors
Of the human race. Now is your
time, gentlemen. to make a record
that you will have good reason to be
proud OF. Remember that there is
tide in the affairs Of men, which If
taken at its fiuod. leads on to fame, If
not fortune. Don't neglect the OPP
portunity.
Call and make your arrangements
to do your summer trading with L. j.
Moore.
If you want to be healthy you must
eat regularly, as meat to-day will not
serve you for tomorrow. To be well
and hearty eat ut every meal time.
To be prosperousin business advertise
regularly. Stop one and you starve
and die. Stop the other and your
business takes consumption and dies
also. Spasmodic advertising is like
having feast and a famine'-more
famine than feast as % general rule
and is never satisfactory. To take
out your card in dull times Is like
killing your horse because he is a
little lame. In dull times advertising
| is the most effective, al more notice iss
taken Of printers' ink then than ct
| any other time.
In another part OF this paper APP
pears q call for special meeting of
the Stevens County Agricultural So
ciety on Saturday afterhoon next. It
is time to commence the preliminary
| work for the fair this fall, and it il
hoped that there will be large num-
Der present at the meeting. Stevens
county ought to have one of the best
fairs of any county In the state. as
well as some OF the best races. She
Gun If those who are interested will
take hold of the matter in earnest.
We hear much talk ahpHt II, and we
believe that there Is 9 general dis
position among our citizens and the
citizens Of the county to make the
fair this fall grand success, let
there be a tail attendance ct the meet.
| ing next Saturday:
| Notions, In an endless array and In
Guiding all of the new and desirable
| novelties, are to be found at Wells
i Bros. &c Hanson's. The assortment
| is 30, large aud varied that it is i'm
possible to specify.
Pioneer Press, Rev. Thomas Me-
| CIary fairly bubbled over with anec-
dotes In his lecture at the Thirteenth
Avenue Methodist church the Other
night. One OF them convulsed his
