j. Baumstark, of Racine, is fgur
ing on piece of property lying just
north of the city about five miles, upon

advice is, don't raise q mustache till
you are sure you want one. The care
of a mustache, pulling it when you
think hard, and curling it up at the

owner may be assured of his share of
the traffic, in fact most of the traffic,
but no cash will be put up o.tside Of
the actual freight rates.
