SEATTLE, Dec. 26, 1891.
And wasn't it a merry Christ
mas? A regular old fashioned
one with the fitting snowflakes
and the earth's holiday garb of
soft white.
And the jingle of sleigh
bells-you could hear them in
some parts of town.
The big store had a merry
Christmas-its gift was from
the people-their generous pat
ronage, and it was an unusually
generous one.
The days before yesterday
were busy ones-full of rush
and hurry and taxing every
facility, but the big store with
its greatness of quantity was
equal to the emergency and its
goods have helped to make the
day a happy one in thousands
of homes.
Christmas shoppers found
that there was nearly every
sensible and worthy sort of
present to be had here--it
helped them in every way
saving time, saving worry and
saving money.
You who did your shopping
here during all this rush know
how much advantage the big
store has for you.
1t has the same good features
at any time and in even greater
degree during the ordinary
days of business.
Its aim is to supply your
wants as quickly, cheaply and
satisfactorily as possible, and in
doing SO it concentrates your
shopping and reduces your cost
to a minimum.
You have had the practical
demonstration during an un-
usually rushing holiday season.
Apply it hereafter during any
shopping day.
We thank you for your most
liberal patronage and wish you
every pleasure and good will of
the holiday week.

GOOD ADVICE TO CARPENTERS

W. J. Montgomery, of Ogdensburg, n. Y,
"My advice to all carpenters is to wear a
couple of ALLCoCKs PLAsTERs on the small of
the back. | find that they give me double
power and energy to accomplish my work, as
well as proving shields against colds and pull
monary difficulties. These plasters appear to
fill the body with nervous energy ana power,
and they seem to double my natural strength.
] am carpenter by trade, and know how often
my brother workmen and / suffer from impru-
IDENTITY throwing our coats of and going TO work
in u cold shop. We forget how little protection
the back part OF the vest affords TO the lungs.
BY placing an ALLcoCK's PLASTER under each
shoulder blade, all trouble OF this kinds will be
avoided, know by experience If you do
get caught with cold or bad cough or rheu-
matte pains, an ALLCoCK's PLASTER gives in
slant relief"

MIR. wOOLLEY, OF WOOLLEY.
Not Yet Gobbled by Sedro-The Single
Trade Improving.

A. Woolley, of Wooiley, who was in the city
yesterday, says that the lumber trade is still
rather dull, but the shingle trade is improving
He continued:
Our shingle mill has been running steadily
until the last i've days, when the storms have
prevented US from getting in any logs. Though
this last storm seemed more serious, 1t has not
brought down as many trees the preceding
storm. The skagit river was pretty high when
left home yesterday, and l expect it is still
higher today.
sedro has not yet gobbled up Woolley, though
Ii has just made the fourth attempt. While |
was away in the East the two councils met to-
gether and ordered a special election on the
question of consolidation. The Sedro peo-
pie carried 1t and held grand cele-
bration, but that is all they did have, for the
law does not allow the consolidation of two
towns unless they have combined population
OF 1900 We have since held another election at
Woolley and turned out the council which voted
for the consolidation election | was elected
mayor and my son alderman, and none of the
other party got many as twenty votes. We
invited the sedro people to q meeting to discuss
consolidation III friendly way, but they did
not come. We are willing to consolidate If an
entirely new name is given to the place. but we
do not want Sedro to absorb Woollsy or Woolley
to absorb Sedro. The two towns ought to be
united, and ii they were we should have
chance of securing the county seat.
