Garnet Size RUGS.

Two years ago you would find US
with a stock OF possibly 2 or 8, to-day
we have in stock an assortment of 81
big carpet size Rugs in double faced
Smyrnas, Administers and Wiltons.

manufacturer we save the jobber's
profit. We own them as cheap as any
jobber in the u. 8. We therefore save
you any middle mans profit and show

Ohio. Prices we quote are possibly q
little lower than same goods can be
bought elsewhere in Ohio. Our ex-
penses OF doing business are not as
great as they are in large cities. We
would suggest before you make any
purchase in this line to see our stock.
It's much more satisfactory 10 have
an assortment to choose from than
simply seeing one or two Rugs. We
solicit your trade. ii. M. ANNAT.

What a splendid type of tireless activity Is
the sun as the psalmist describes it issuing
like "a bridegroom from his chamber and re-
joicing like a strong man to run race"
Every man ought to rise In tue morning re-
freshed by slumber and renewed by rest,
eager for the struggle of the day. But how
rareIy this is so Most people rise still unre-
freshed, and dreading the strain of the days
labors. The cause of this is deficient vitality
and behind this lies deficient supply of pure.
rich blood, and an Inadequate nourishment OF
the body. There is nothing that will give a
man strength and energy, as will DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. Ii does this by
increasing the quantity and quality OF the
blood supply. This nourishes the nerves,
feed the brain, builds up enfeebled organs,
and gives that sense OF strength and power
which makes the struggle OF life Il joy. The
good feeling which follows the use of
Golden Medical Discovery" is not due To
stimulation as 1t contains no alcohol, whisky
| or other intoxicant. 1t does not brace up the
| body. but builds it up into a condition OF
sound health. ..-

Rain Didn't Reach This City.

Tuesday Cincinnati was visited with
a phenomenal rain fall which seem to
have been simply q local thunder storm.
Forecaster Bassler, of the Weather
Bureau said:
1t was the biggest rainfall we have
had in the history Of our city, when we
take into account the short period OF
time in which it occurred. There have
been heayier rainfalls here, OF course,
but none in which so great an amount
of water was precipitated In the same
time ss today. In that particular II
beat all our former records. In the
space of thirty-eight minutes, which
was the time OF duration of this storm,
our gauge shows that rain fell TO the
depth of 237 inches.

Mr.. George Sparks, of Rushsylvania.
was starting home from Bellefontaine
Wednesday, but before he got into the
buggy, at the J. F. Roger barn on
South Detroit, the horse whirled and
started on hard run down the alley TO
Elm street, up to Chillicothe to the
Big Four depot. Over the platform
went the horse and up the Big Four
track. The dining car was coming
down the track and into this the buggy
crashed, but the horse never stopped
until he struck q locomotive coming
down from the round house. The rear
wheels of the buggy were broken, the
top crushed and the shafts broken, but
the horse was not hurt. Later the
horse ran off again and overturned the
buggy. Mr.. Sparks was thrown ou'
not hurt.
