Keep Your Eyes Open.

Every man ought to have two eyes open
when he's awake and not close more than one
when he sleeps. It is the man with his eyes
open, the wide awake man as we call him
who sees the opportunities of life, sees them
and sizes them. Nothing escapes him. The
sleepy man walks down Perry street and sees
only number of stores, all somewhat alike;
the wide awake man sees an air of business
about the Eagle Clothing House, the goods
catch his eye, he looks, he prices, he buys.
You never catch a wide awake man passing
the Eagle Clothing House. He knows they
carry the largest stock of clothing, mems
furnishings and hats in the city, being the
leaders of low prices. Mr.. Myers will not
allow himself to be undersold by competitors.
Take our advice, save yonr money-Mr. Ny
ers' will save you money on any article you
buy of him. He wants your trade and if low
prices and gentlemanly treatment is an in
ducement to you, he will catch you. Try him.

FRANK WERLICH, Sec'y.
He Told q Lie.

The great detriment to honest advertisers
is that there are SO many who willfully and
willingly misrepresent their goods and wares
and then the purchaser who invests in them
is bound to be deceived and he can come to
no other conclusion than that the advertiser
told lie, hence he is very likely to denounce
all. Saur & Balsley make an effort to bring
their goods before the people by stating facts
as to what they are, and what they do, and
they are never better satisfied than when the
people are willing to test them. At the pres
ent time they have very large stock of
paints in paste form all ready mixed for use
which they are anxious to dispose of before
the winter comes on, and to make it an induce
ment for every body to buy now they have
reduced the prices very much.

Card Of fThanks.

There are some things that human speech
and pen are incapable Of doing-among
which are the adequate expression of thank
fulness that the stricken mourner feels to-
ward those who have given of their time and
sympathy, at that awful hour when the still
ness of death invades the household and the
husband and father 'goes to his long home"
In our recent afdiction caused by the death
of dearly beloved husband, father and
brother-we have been singularly blessed by
the kind ministrations of neighbors and
friends who came to us and proffered their
timely services when most needed. To those
people we take this method of extending our
most grateful thanks. Their words of cheer
and consolation have done much to brighten
the present darkness that enshrouds us, and
make us to feel that somewhere in the COM
ing years we may learn to look upon our
present sorrow as not entirely unmixed evil.
Be assu red that you have won our everlasting
gratitude. ELEcrA B. PARRY,
