Graham Bulletin: Saturday night about nine o'clock some bold thief en- tered the house 0: Judge Neill Monro, in South Clifton, during his absence. The thief effected an entrance by raising a window screen. When dis cavered by Mrs Monro he Vas ran sacking the bureau drawers in the room where she was in bed. The noise caused by opening one of the drawers awOke Mrs Munro and she, supposing the man to be Judge Monro. called to him and asked what he was doing, and how he entered the house, as she had locked all the doors. The thief very coolly walked out Of the room into the kitchen, unlaiched the screen door and made good his escape. Mrs. Monro called some of the neigh bors who searched for the thief but were unsuccessful as he was to swift for them. The thief was evidently looking for money.

A Department Store IS where a general

corps Of assistants, and is held responsible Tor
the buying and selling, the success and progress

most competent managers for common cause,
and largely lifting the heavy load Of personal
responsibility from the mind of the proprietor.
