'
which is literally a fly sPeCk on
the globe, is boiling with indig
nation at the action of the repre-
sentative OF a government on
whose domain the sun never sets.
Uneasy lies the head that wears
a crown" Is applicable to the
heads OF those who form a gov
eminent, republican, monarchiCal
or otherwise. The result will be
waited with interest,
The ID & d polsher has made
bigger hit than we anticipated,
probably, because the public was
ready to accept an article that
would clean everything that
sapolio will and polish metals
besides.
The work and wear OF sew
ing machine are two things to be
considered by purchasers, and
these two things have been con-
sidered by the makers OF the
"Wertheim." We have now
only the tripleX, the sort that
does the lock, chain and cmbroi-
derry stiCh by the mere moving
OF a thumb screw from lett to
right. This one advantage com
mends themachine to the ladies
and the beauty of the table
strengthens their desire to own
one OF them a gentleman from
Australia told us the other day
that the Wertheim is the only
machine used there; other ma
chimes had been introduced in
the Colonies, but when placed
alongside the Werthelm they
were lacking in so many points,
compared with the other that the
bottom tell out of the demand.
People have said to us; If the
Wertheim is snch a good ma
chine why did we not hear OF it
in the States ?" Simply because
it is of German manufacture and
the United States has prohibit
tory tariff on such articles; 50
many different kinds of machines
are made in the United States
that the manufacturers must be
protected; every machine made
elsewhere is barred out In conn
tries where such tariffs do not
exist the Wertheim is in demand.
It's a new thing here and people
have hardly begun to know of
its advantages; when they do Won
will have to hustle to find any
other kind OF machine in use.
With the prizes offered for The
! best decorated building on the
Fourth OF July perhaps the arts
tic abilities OF many OF the citi-
zens will be brought into play.
| There seems TO be a shortage OF
bunting in the market and many
of the people who desire to
dress their buildings will have
to give the will tor the deed.
| II the committee will consider
the appropriations OF the quo
tatiOn beauty unadOruCd is
adorned the most competitors
will be many for the prizes. As a
substitute for bunting we take
great pleasure in recommending
three shades OF our lIcndry' S
Ready Mixed Paints; they viii
last longer and remain brighter
than any bunting that was ever
manufactured. ANY one who
will look at the front OF our store
can tell the amount of Suitability
there is in Hendry's Ready
| Mixed.

WEIGH" if you are Interested in
a fine quality OF bath tubs. Our
stock of the Standard Manuiac-
turing Company's goods is on
that vessel and when it arrives
we will show you a very hand
/ some assortment OF things need
full in a bath room. We doubt
it another such stock has ever
been seen here and the probable
/ duty on sugar is going to make
a demand for them equalled only
| by the prosperity OF the Anti
/ Mckinley days. The people OF
to-day are more progressive
than those of twenty years ago;
the bath room receives as much
of the attention of decorators
as any other part OF the dwelling
and the pantry and china rooms
are made attractive by a liberal
display OF Haviland china. We
believe our low prices and lib
! eral inducements offered to per
sons desiring sets OF decorated
china have added quite as much
TO the appearance OF the home
of the man of moderate means
as the designer has to the home
OF the rich. We are up to date,
not only in the matter of prices
but in the wants OF the people.
Our policy in this respect has
been an innovation TO the people
here and the havoc it has caused
among some dealers has made
them wish it was one of mon in

charging for their wares. Gees
