MAN RESCUED HIM.

night, which broke out about O'Clock
in the six-story building of the Thack-

Meanwhile majority Of the workmen
made their escape A dozen or more,
however, were hemmed in, and had to

HOW ARE YOUR FENcEs7

A Very Important Question with Farm
ers and Others just Now.
Probably there is nothing that inter
ests the land owner more at this time
of the year than fencing. They are de-
sirous of securing the very best article
they can for the purpose they desire to
use it for and at the cheapest price
going. While this is good business,
price should not take the place OF
quality. In building smooth wire
fence you do not build it for temporary
use but expect it to last you for years
and to get this kind Of an article 1t
requires a certain amount Of good ma
terial to make it.
The De Kalb Fence Co., Of De Kalb,
H., has the largest and most COM
plete line Of smooth wire fencing OF any
plant in the country. We desire par
ticularly to call your attention to their
goods and write them for a catalogue
which they will mail you free.
No line of goods has grown so rapidly
in demand or given such general salts
faction as the fencing manufactured by
this company. Their steel web picket
fence for lawn and yard purposes, their
cabled field and hog fence for farm use,
their cabled poultry, garden and rabbit
fence for it's use, are all they claim for
them.
You will hardly do yourself justice If
you do not thoroughly investigate their
lines before placing your order.
