Ole Nelson. from Clinton, was out
last week visiting his future partner,
George Faaborg. These two gentle
men have associated themselves to-
gether and will open dry goods store
in Audubon about the first of Febru-
ary. They bave rented the building
on the north side of Main street, next
to Rasmussen & Jensen's shoe store,
and we believe will do good bust
