sam has jumped from church to church
until YOU cannot locate him religiously,
and nov they charge that from demo-
crat to a prohibitionist and from a
prohibitionist to third party candidate
he moves with grace and speed. If sam
keeps on he will be like the dog on the
express car.
IA man passing the door of the ex-
press car asked a negro whose dog that
was He says, Il don't know, sir, and
the messenger don't know, and the boss

We are again agreeably surprised to

We have long considered him an en-.
terprising and progressive business
man, but these later developments
show him to be of the pushing"
type.
Besides keeping model Grocery"
In which only the best quality of gro.
ceries is kept, and "Model Bakery"
where only the purest food is baked
in the most tasty manner, he has just
put in lunch counter where a very
good meal of any description may be
had at very trifling cost.
He has just employed the services
of man experienced in the finer de.
partments of baking for the express
purpose of producing fine quality of
goods. You will always find pies,
cakes, ETC., in variety and of superior
quality at his place of business.
You may, perhaps, find cheaper
goods at other places but think that
since he sells them as cheap as any
man possibly can sell good article,
you would do well to look out for adul.

A famous duchess in London recently
went through the ordeal of having a
dress made on her own figure. She
stood for three hours while the dress
makers wrought fifty yards of rare old
lace that could not be cut into a gown
for soiree, at the close of which every
stitch had to be carefully cut and picked
out before the lady could disrobe. The
amount of torture that fair woman will
undergo in the name of vanity would
astonish the martyrs.
