Culled From Our Exchanges.

THE UNION COUNTY COURIER has
entered on its 9th year Of publication.
1t is clear to the front as newspaper
aud its republicanism does not prevent
it from looking on both sides Of a
question-as the Nipple Mayhcw- An
derson imbroglio and the like. May it
wave" 26 more year.. --Bruic iader
(Pop.)
With last week. issue, the Elk Point
COURIER completed the 10Th year Of its
existence. 1t is one of the Oldest, as
we'll as one OF the best, weekly papers
in the state. - ChantJerlojn Register.
The UNION COUNTY COURIER has
reached the mature age of 26. A vol
ume of valuable history could he
gathered from its files. The develop
ment of the state in these twenty-six
years of its existence has been great,
twentysix years roll by will be
astonished at the greater development
sure to come ia that time. May the
COURIER be a faithful and successful
chronicler Of these coming events. -

The UNION COUNTY COURIER has

age for a South Dakota publication.
THE COURIER has seen ali sorts Of
weather, bat it5has always been fair
and honest publication. Never more
so than now, however, under the

helpfully read .-Argns Leader.
With last weeks issue THE ELK

No. 3.
The Morgan & Wright single-tube
quick-repair tire is guaranteed not
porous. This is on account of the way
in which it is made. Nearly every
rider has heard of tires that 'leak
like sieve.''
Many tires rot, because water gets
into the fabric between the two layers
of rubber. The Morgan g. Wright
fabric is proof against moisture.
Everybody knows how comfortable
Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet
how seldom they puncture. This is
due to the fabric.
Ask any bicycle dealer whether
other tires last as long as Morgan &
Wright tires. Ask, also, what the
Morgan & Wright guarantee means.
Morgan & Wright tires are repaired
free of charge, at the factory in
Chicago or at any of the Morgan &
Wright free repair shops, located in
the principal cities.
N. B.-When you have a puncture,
get right off. Riding tire fat, when
It has "A tack or nail in it, may
damage II considerably.

TIRES THAT LEAK.

The Morgan & Wright single-tube
quick-repair tire must be regarded as
distinct improvement in bicycle tire
construction. Ithas the following ad
vantages:
While punctures in it can be re-
paired with plugs, or serni-liquid in
jections, as we'll as in any other
single-tube tire, it can be permanently
repaired by using the quick-repair
strip inside the tire. See cut No. /
