in lineolum. The shelving and side cases
are handsomely set with mirrors, and the
counter show cases, also in an antique
oak, are Of the best. Taken altogether
this is one of the most complete and one
of the handsomest drug houses in the

Last Sunday night Rev. G. P Watson,
pastor of the Methodist Church, began a
series of illustrated sermons on the gen

will use in emphasizing the main points

last Sunday night vas THE Good fol
