"A few days ago Bernie S. McLure
received from Clarksburg a.>box la
beled short nosed snipe." II was
sent to him by Tom Seely, Of that
city, who is we'll known in wheeling.
Upon opening the box, Mr., Mcclure
discovered that 1t contained monster
owl, one Of the largest specimens ever
seen in this section Of the county.
Mr.. Mcclure sent q very peculiar mes
sage Of thanks to Mr.. Seely.
His first impulse. to serveowl dinner
TO q partyot friends. was abandoned
after he held short conference with
the hotel chef. The bird was then
taken over 10 Goetze's, and has been
on exhibition in the Market street
window Of the drug store. 1t is very
snappy and cross. The owl feeds on
live mice and rats and other small an
finals.
1t will probably be given 70 the

Yesterday and Today.

The methods Of yesterday are not
those Of to-day: the style of genera-
ton ago are undesirable in the pres
ent. Houses which, decade ago
seemed possessed of every point Of de-
stability and feature Of beauty. are,
very often, found inferior TO those
erected nowadays.
We would like to show you draw
lngs Of some Of the beautiful and thor
oughly up-to-date buildings we have
designed. They demonstrate the
painstalsing care we give to every de
tail inside and out, great and small.
We have no use for hackeyed ideas
and unprogressive methods. but seek
instead to be wholly modern.
A thorough familiarity with what
is being done in architecture the
world over, enables US to avoid the err
rors Of Others and profit by what has
proven successful.
Tell us all about the home you have
In mind let US prepare sketches OF
a home which shall indeed be home.
This involves no expense to you.
