During the past week we have done
} Job work for sixteen different business
firms and organizations in our city
1t Is no boasting on our part when We
say that there is no printing establish
ment on the line of the Great North
ern, between the big cities and here
that turns out better class of WORK
than the office of the MORRIS TRIB
UNE.
The great majority of so-called
cough cures do little more than I'M

bile. Ayers Cherry Pectoral, on the

1t has not been decided as yet
whether "St. Patrick's Day will be
celebrated in Norris this year or not.
1t ought to be celebrated here, surely.
Good old Saint Patrick, very likely,
didn't have great deal OF fun In his
time; he was busy doing good, and
| left the sport for coming generations.
These generations are here, and more
are on the way; and the Seventeenth
OF March has grown to be day OF
recreation and regalia aud "a general
all-around good time"
All kinds of salt fish at the Red
Front.
The paper hanging and painting at
the hotel Elk is being done as rapidly
as possible. The dining room and
paflors are completed. When we say
that more pleasant and attractive
dining hall cannot be found In the
state, we simply state the truth. The
paper with which the walls and CELL
ing are ornamented are really gor-
geous. The business office is finished
in hard pine, oiled, and is just as
pleasant an office as any clerk could
wish to preside over, or travelling
man desire to step into. In fact, The
Elk will be u very attractive hotel In
every respect-a full and complete de-
scription Of which was given in the
TRIBUNE some time since.
We know of q case where q farmer,
living near Morris, was laboring I'M
der the impression that he could save
money by buying groceries in the
city, instead of purchasing of our
local dealers. Well, he tried it, with |
this result: He purchased a barrel Of
granuIated sugar in Minneapolis, |
which cost him, laid down in Morris,
8 cents per pound. On enquiry he !
found that he could have purchased
the same article Of surgar of mer-
Chants here in Morris for 675ths to 7
cents per pound. After mature de-
liberation and little figuring the
aforesaid farmer came to the conclu-
sion that he had not made much out
OF his Minneapolis speculation, and
that hereafter he would patronize
home institutions.
Curtiss Bros. bottled preserves at

II. s. Judson, president of the First
National Bank, has had the second
story of the bank building divided
into seven rooms, which he is having
finished in elegant style for resi-
dence. The wool wOrk is in cherry
finish, and the walls and ceiling are
ornamented with rich and attractive
paper, with gilt mouldings and TRIM
mings, When completed these rooms
will without doubt be the finest resi-
dence rooms in this part of the state,
and fully equal to many of the fine
rooms in the large cities. There is an
entrance from these rooms to the ho-
tel, making it convenient, when de-
sired, to take meals at the hotel table.
or course Mr.. Judsou does not intend
to occupy the aboye elegant rooms all
alone OF course not.
IF you are accustomed to buy goods
at some certain store and pay inn
mense profits, that does not signify
that you must send abroad for goods,
in order to get lower prices. Wehave
made the mercantile business our
study for 81 years, uot in selfish
way, but for the purpose of knowing
how to buy the best goods for the
least money, in order to protect our
customers and make living besides.
We find that goods must be sold on
smaller margins now than in the
past. We are ever ready to meet
these demands and ask for share
of your patronage. Some city houses
try to mislead people by advertising
a few goods, such as the majority use
but few Of, I'm plain figures. This
does not prove change in their mode
of doing business. Our entire stock
is open for your inspection. We are
only too glad to put our time against
yours. We are here to show goods
and quote prices. Give rs call
