ECONOMICAL PURCHASING.


There are two golden rules in buying. The
first is familiar: do not buy things be-
cause it is cheap" This is applicable in
more ways than one, but would place be-
side it another: Do not buy thing because
it is high-priced. The sum of both rules is
Be guided by quality and not by price.
Cheap goods are, as general rule, of poor
quality. Let the shopper remember always
she can not"get something for nothing" To
be sure there are quite often bargains in
goods, and it is part OF the art of shopping to
look out for these, but one must be wary and
use careful Judgment here If one be not
sure OF herself she would better avoid them
altogether.
1t is poor policy to buy things that will
soon look shabby. Better have one dress OF
coed quality than two Of poor quality. 1t is
bad economy also and worse taste, to buy
limitations OF costly goods. Better buy a
good wool dress than cheap silk. Better
| buy no embroidery at all than that which is
| coarse and on poor material. 1t will add nc
| beauty to the garment on which it is placed
| and it certainly will not be durable.
Again, high-prlced goods are not ALWAYS
| the most servceable. Dress goods at a dollar
| and a half per yard are often no more dura
| BILE, and sometimes less so, than those at 4
| dollar. The extra price is often charged fol-
fneness in finish or novelty in style. This

one Of our cattlemen remarked that

Melvin Wines, son Of j. l. Wines,
formerly Of this place, now of Reno,
who has been spending few days at
his former home, Eureka, arrived
here Wednesday evening, stopped
over yesterday to visit friends and
left last night for Butte City, Mon
tana, where he has located for the
practice Of his profession. We wish
him success, and trust that he may
become one Of the leading lawyers of

Eastern papers will soon begin to
make mention of the famous "Cali-
fornia horses" shipped from Reno by
Theodore Winters this week. Our
neighbors on the other side of the
Father of Waters do not seem to be
aware that there is such q State as
Nevada, and many of them think to
this day that Nevada is an uncivilized
Territory made up of uncultivated
deserts and inhabited by murderous
bandits and savage Indians.
The tax levy for the year 1890 will
be made by the Board of Commits
sioners at their next regular meeting.
Owing to the losses Of stock it was
thought best to postpone the levy to
the last momentwith the hope that
some intelligent estimate might be
made Of the decrease in taxable prop
erty, which will serve as a guide in
fixing the rate &c as to meet the cur.
rent expenses Of the present year
From the present outlook it is thought
the estimate that the losses in this
county would reach 100000 is too
high.
