vision of the new law enacted by the
last congress in regard to the sale of
cigars. Section 1892 says that cigars
must be sold to customers directly from
the properly stamped box. A dealer
who takes out a handful of weeds and
lays them down before the buyer to
choose from, is guilty of a technical
violation of the law and is liable to q
fine of 500.
Some days ago party living some

three or four days he called again and
bought bill of goods, remarking that
he had been to Sioux City to the corn
palace, and that after investigating the
price of goods IN that city he found
that he could do better by buying in
Hurley. Reaiiers, this is not the case
with furniture alone, but with nearly
everything you have to buy. Patronize
