der the firm name of Skeen & Peterson,
bought the Lenneyille blacksmith shop,
taking possession on Monday. The

worth of new stock. The price paid for

The extension heating apparatus at
the city hall enables the fire department
to keep the water in the steamer one
boiling heat day and night, and in case
of fire the steamer will be ready for
business as soon as the hose can be laid.
This may mean thousands of dollars to
the city. The expense for the little
heater in the basement was small and it
does the work beautifully. 1t is a part
of Chief of Police McCoul's duties to see
that the city hall is properly heated and
he says that it is scarcely any additional
trouble to look after the extension heater.
The big sale at the Currie & Co. store
has been the talk Of the place the past
week. The opening sale last Saturday
was attended by crowds OF people and
everybody found something at the bar
gain counter that they wanted. Manager
Jeter had engaged a half dozen additional
clerks and still they had their hands full
to wait on the customers. People are
quick to see real bargains. such as are
being offered at the Currie 4 Co. store,
and this is what brings the crowds daily.
The sale must go On and the people who
can get in from a distance to attend it
are extremely fortunate. Read the an
nouucement in the PRESS this week and
note the special bargain d%ays-for dry
goods, ribbons, etc.
