The Farmers Store has new
advertisement in this issue and it
can be found on the editorial page.
This popular institution will open up
a new stock of goods at the old stand
to-day and invite everybody to visit
their store. n. ss-
Nov is the best time for farmers
to begin the work of overhauling
their farm machinery and getting it
in proper repairs for beginning the
spring work which may possibly
come on much earlier than usual.
The blacksmiths and wood repair
ers are not as busy just at present, as
they will be when spring opens, when
it may be impossible for them to
leave a job to fix yours up.
E. j. Daniels occupies consider
able space in this issue telling the
many ADVANCE readers about the ex-
ceedingly low prices he is making on
all winter goods to make room for
his spring stock. This store, un-
der the supervision of Mr.. Latta, has
gained an enviable reputation in the
business circles of our city, and we
are pleased to know that this institu-
ton has become permanent fixture.
A certain preacher said no news
paper that told the truth could make
a success. We say, by way of re-
turning the compliment, that the
minister who will at all times and un-
der all circumstances tell the whole
truth, about his flock, alive and dead,
will not occupy the pulpit more than
Is minutes, and then he will find it
necessary to leave town in hurry.
The press and pulpit go hand in
hand, with the whitewash brush and
pleasant words magnifying little vir-
tues into big ones.-Ex.
