we'll worth a reading.
Honest advertising is evidently
good thing. People should pay bet
ter attention to it. Van Horn Il Son
have since their last weeks adv. in
THE RECORD, disposed of one third of
their entire stock of boys clothing
This shows what an advertisement
will do if backed up with goods as
which we have every
reason to believe they always do.

selected as the chairman of the con

is likely to be some excellent oratory.

above town. Mr.. Finger succeeded in
making a fine catch-a black bass 10
inches long and weighing over three

caught two bass that weighed one
pound each. But the most remarkable
catch was that of a grey squirrel,
