A Store Filled to Overlooking
With New Goods.

With the improvements we made last sum-
mer, in our store capacity, and new arrange
ments for better handling our goods, we had
hoped to be able to arrange our goods this season
so that we could have in handling
them, and more aisle room for customers.
We find, however, after we have all our goods
in, that it's the same old story,==goods under
tables counters, on top of shelving, in hooks
and corners, in closets and store rooms, under
counters, and with shelves filled to their ut
most capacity.
Our ever increasing trade demands more and
more goods, larger amounts and larger assort=
ments. And in our endeavor to keep just
little ahead of the demands made upon us as
merchant, we have brought to Audubon this
season, the largest, the most complete stock of
Dry Goods Millinery, Cloaks, Carpets, ETC.,
ever shown by any store in Audubon county.
AS to the always important factor=-price==
we are willing to leave to you, after you have
investigated For, except for the fact that
most of the readers of our advertisements know
and understand, that the prices we quote are
on reliable and trustworthy goods, we are UNI
able in an advertisement to show you clearly
that you save money, Gas we'll as having
better stock to select FROM in our store.
For should we choose to do so, could write
description of an article, and price it at SI.oo
or So 90 and that special article at two dollars
might be a better bargain than the other at one
The best way is to come and examine the
goods we advertise, then you can Judge OF
their worth.

See, Tip-toe on the dewy morn Spring stands;
Her fresh, young hands stretched toward the
mounting sun.
Her round breast cleaning bare, where March
has swept
Aback the fretted drapery of wood-brown hair;
Her slender limbs ungarmented. where
The messy, glossy. blossoming willows fur
Still hangs faint tangled tassels from her waist
Her rosy lips low laughter frame, e'er yet -
Her eyes have cleared their bury mist OF tears
And, with the throbbing pulses quickened tide.
Soft heart-sobs start, 10 end themselves in signs
OF longing. and strange-bewildering Joy
That thrills and pains the while it pleasures
most.
The plaintive south wind fans her flaming cheek
And swings sweet cups of incense at her feet:
Breathes low the bluebird's first tuned welcom-
ing
And stjrs the willows netted ambuscade
Until it slips its loosening hold.
Then, as
All radiant breathes a secret dear to both,
So Spring her lifted length throws warm and full
Into the suns embrace, drinks deep his hoard
OF fruitful kisses, winter-stored, and sings
Her hopes of summer days and summer flowers.

4 Recent Egyptian Di.coyer,.

1t has hitherto been supposed that in
Egypt the practice Of embalming the
bodies of the dead and forming them
into mummies was the most ancient
method of sepulture; but Prof. Film
ders Petrie, the well-known Egyptolo-
gist, has, by recent excavations, thrown
quite a new light upon this question
of the ancient method of disposing of
the dead. At Deshasheh. a place about
so miles south of Cairo, he has discov-
cred series of tolnbs in the collins of
which he has found complete skeletons
from which the flesh has been carefully
dissected, evidently previous to burial.
The collins are of admirable workman
ship, are made of sycamore and are in
perfect preservation, notwithstanding
their 5000 years burial in the sand.
1t remains to be proved by further ex-
cavations whether the mutilation Of
the bodies was performed as a cere-
nionial rite or whether this removal Of
flesh from the bones points to cannibal-
ism on the part of the ancient people.
