escape from death, Thursday of last week.
The hosting machinery gave way and let a

him beneath It, bruising him severely. He is
improving at present, and probably owes his

where TO Purchase Christmas Goods.

The great festival Of the year is again at
hand. The longing eyes Of the youngsters are
beginning to feast upon the grand display In
the windows, and the older people are begin
ming to study, not only what to purchase, but
what is decidedly more to the purpose, where
to purchase. 1t is unnecessary In this en-
lightened age, to call attention to the fact
that the best places to buy goods, the best
places to secure bargains the best places to be
accommodated, and the best places to find
the newest, best and freshest gods are the
stores of those who are steady, persistent
advertisers. The store keeper who in 1899
neglects to let the people know what he keeps
in stock, and refuses to talk with his out-of-
town friends and customers, is the man who
will enter upon the year 1900 with in abun-
dant supply of old, stale and shop worn goods
upon his shelves. The wide awake, bustling,
| hustiing merchant, whose business keeps pace
| with the times and whose bank account keeps
pace with bis trade is the one whose adver' ise-
ments are regular part OF his office orr;
and whose name may be found regularly in
