If you are going to buy a
trunk why not buy it here.
We have more franks than all
other local dealers combined.
We sell them for decidedly less
money, and that's no Joke.
We deliver them and have
them put in your room free.
We print your name in plain,
nnmlstakable letters on tile
trunk free everything's free
but the trunk.
They range from s1.6S for
a pretty good sort of trunk,
up to $13 for the most royal
sort. That means about 50. IS
up to SIS among the other
dealers.
AND BAGS-well, when
it comes to the price, we beat
the man that made 'em.
A right fair Bag for 33c-
something decidedly better for
75c to 81. so. Then again at
about 81 to 81 you get some
thing capital-when you reach
those that range S6 to $40
apiece they are simply out of
sight. Come and see the
lines.

Briughurst place, i've miles north OF
town, the fire jumped the plowed guard
and started away to the northwest. The
nrs was finally extinguished out near
the Benz place. No damage was done,
except to the range. In tho afternoon,
while Arthur Chesley was burning his
stabble, about i've miles south of town,
the flames vaulted over his flre.guard
and shot away toward the north. It re.
quired some hard work, especially ss
Mr.. Armstrong; and at Mr.. s. E. Kurts's,
to save everything; but 1t was done. Had
It not been that back firing was done
along the road between Mr.. John KurtE's u
and the Semlinge place. the fire would
