Monday, John Walls small dog bit
, little Glynn Nash on the hand, and the
, following day II. &. started out with q
revolver to end the dog. He found the
canine in front of +. b. Longwel':
store and shot at him. The dog wasn't
hurt, but couple of women standing
near by were nearly scared to death
Wall afterwards killed the dog.
Training is everything If man ha;
ing, it is pretty hard for anyone to pas;
: off i'll fitting garments with the preteXt
that they are just as good. There is z
, big difference, and if you will call thi;
week at Smith IL Co.'S they will show
you the difference. Every garment
bearing Kuppenheimer label is right
Rev. M. S Waller informs us that
seatings were provided for 465 person:
at his church Sunday evening; alsC
that the receipts from Monday even
ing's lecture were $40 so, which WA:
, turned over To Mr. Koehne as cOmpen
sation for the lectures. The impression
formed by some, that Mr.. Waller or tn,
church derived financial benefit from
the course, is erroneous.
The preparation that Cummings has
made for spring business indicates hi!
belief in returning prosperity. Every

< His always the lowest prices, consisten
: with quality, has the telling effect
Note what he says about an April sal,
, in his usual space in this paper.
