The people who attended the wedding

not to say common decency, that they
were threatened with expulsion from the
sacred edi6ce. They talked, laughed,
joked, stood ON seats, passed around
candy, and even hung their wraps on
images and in the confessionals. Father
Brown denounced them from the altar. A
witness says:
"Inths first place agreat number Of ladies
were in full dress, which in itself wAs
shocking, for whom they were al seated an
observer was inclined to think they had
como to witness . theatrical show, and not
the performance Of solemn ceremony in
the house Of God. They showed no Es-
spsct whatever for the place they we're in.
They talked, joked and laughed, and svsn
passed around candy to while away the
time. Twics Father Brown came out and

Both his threats and bis exhortations weEs
equally unavaiiing. In fact. some OF the

Real Facts.

We had a curiosity to know whether
the wall paper dealer who was adj
vertising so largely to sell wall paper for
cash was really selling goods at cash, or
lying about it, and we procured on Satur-
day night directly from the proprietor
himself through a DISTINGUISHED party.
five samples of paper. Each sample was
marked in plain figures and were as fol-
lows, one cheap liquid gilt 13c. one solid
liquid gilt 1Sc and three embossed liquid
gifts at 25c. Now we have been selling
the same goods all season as follows; the
paper he has marked 13c for 10c. the / Sc
paper at 12c, and one of the CSC pieces
at 16c, and the other two CSC pieces at
zoe. Now he told this customer that
these goods were his best. We are sorry
for him that he is unable to handle any
better goods, and are surprised that he
had to pay so much for his goods. He
had better buy his goods OF US next sea-
son, and possibly then he can do some
business,
We sell three fourths of the wall paper
sold in Rock Island now. and it won't be
very long before we have all the trade
You will find cheaper and better line of
wall paper than at any other store in the
three cities.

Honesty the l.est Policy.

1t is fact that the Adams Wall Paper
Co. have the inside track in buying wall
paper and can and do sell wall paper at
prices less than other dealers pay for it..
To illustrate this fully. we have on
exhibition at our store five samples of
gilt papers procured on last Saturday
evening by a customer from a would

at cost; the prices were marked on each
sample by the proprietor himself and was

He either is trying to deceive the people
or else paid too much for his goods
and is greatly ovtrstocked with old
style goods. In either case the people
buying goods of him would pay too much
for them. No dealer can or will sell
goods at cost, especially when they have
large rents to pay and expensive clerks
sitting in their store looking out of the
window at other dealers selling goods.
We ask the people this question: Why
is wall paper so much cheaper since we
started into business? 1t is because of
our method of doing business, namely:
small profits and quick returns With an
assortment of the latest patterns of wall
paper-larger then all the other dealers
combined. The public appreciates enter.
