Bargain Week.

That's what people like to read ~z,out, and why shouldn't they? For instance: We have just one lot of sleeve ironing boards, the regular price of which is 25 cents each. This week you can have them at 10 cents each at our store; they are the most service able article you can bring into the house nowadays. If you don't believe us ask someone who is using one. esNuffsed'' Then, again, we have one lot of light caps, different colors, such as the boys like to wear when playing ball CT the men folks wear while working in the shop; in fact, we've seen ladies wearing them while taking an automobile dash along Broadway. Now we are going to sell these caps at 4 cents each while they last, and they are worth 25 cents; therefore, you see we have bargains galore. But the best bargain of all is when you buy a mound of our warranted 50-cent Tea and get four bars of best laundry soap with 1t. Then, again, our 2o-cent Butter is bargain because other peo- pie are selling not as good for 2S ana 80 cents, therefore, remember the bar gains this week at

ADMITTING That You Don't Drink

are not the other members of your family to be considered. The fact that you do not use strong drink is no argument that you should not keep good liquor in your house at all times. For instance, if member of your family is taken violently ill and no doctor near, perhaps a little good whiskey or brandy would save his or her life. It sometimes takes a half hour to get a doctor to your house, am other half hour to have your prescrip- ton compounded, and all this time your friend is suffering excruciating pain. Perhaps little liquor would do the work and save that worry and ex- pense We will stock up your sideboard or wine cellar with the choicest wines and liquors and at prices that are low CT than the others.

AZ Bargain for Farmers.

The New York Tribune Farmer, ma
tional illustrated agricultural weekly OF
twenty large pages, has no superior as a
thoroughly practical and helpful publi-
cation for the farmer and every farmer
and every member of his family, and the
publishers are determined TO give it n
circulation unequalled by any paper OF
its class in the United States.
Knowing that every enterprising, up
to-date farmer always reads his own local
weekly newspaper, the New York Trib-
une Farmer has made an exceedingly
liberal arrangement which enables us to
offer the two papers at so low price
that no farmer can afford to lose the op-
portunity.
The price OF The New-York Tribune
Farmer is s1.00 year and the Elbert
County Tribune is si.5o year, but both
papers will be sent for full yenr il you
forward or bring sl.65 to the Office OF the
Tribune, Elbert, Colo.
Send your name and address to The
New-York Tribune Farmer, New York
City, and specimen copy OF that paper
will be mailed to you.

school house last Friday evening was a

The farmers in this locality will not
gain anything by holding their potatoes,
as more than one-fourth OF them have
already rotted. In our opinion a farmer
will hardly ever make anything by eel
laring his potatoes, as the price obtained
during the winter and spring will not be
enough to pay for the shrinkage.

Many people complain at paying
twenty-five cents gallon for kerosene oil
such as that sold in Elbert and in fact
all over Colorado, and 1t does seem to be
a big price to pay for such an inferior
grade o. oil. Over at Telluride and Delta,
howeser, the residents have much more
cause to complain as the following, taken
from the Telluride journal, will show;
In Delta kerosene oil retails at thirty
tive cents the gallon; in Telluride the
sanlc oil soils at fifty cents. A few years
ago one merchant put the price down to
forty cents, saying his profit at that fig
ure was all his conscience wculd permit
Of his taking. When his stock on hand
was exhausted he found he could buy no
more oil at any price, until he put him
self under bonds to maintain the regula-
tion price pursuant to instructions to his
hirelings from the sanity Deacon Rock

An exchange tells whole lot Of truth
in the following: "a man can be strictly
honest, and yet be so mighty small and
picayunish in his dealings with his
neighbors and family that he will not
rate much higher in the respect OF his
neighbor than the boss scamp OF the
community. Honesty is good deal like
many of the things we eat-nceds trim
ming. There is lot OF truth behind the
old biblical admonition as to the gospel
measure r liberal, generous, pressed
down and running over. Men who deal
on this basis always have lots OF friends
and get good measure in return"

NEW PROJECTS ARE DOOMED

Washington, Dec. 14.-The fact that
the river and harbor committee of the
house today held preliminary meeting
and decided to enter upon series of
hearings of representatives from the
leading states of the United States that
are in need of further appro priations for
their harbors and waterways, is taken
to indicate that river and harbor bill
will be passed at the present session.
The opinion generally prevails, how
ever, that such bill to secure approval
of the house leaders, must make com.
paratively small.appropriation, and pro-
vide principally for continuing work
previously begun, which would include
all Columbia river improvements not
taken care of in the sundrv civil bill, as
we'll as the more important work along
the Oregon coast that are now in course
of construction.
1t is probable the bill will make pro-
vision for surveys, but very little in the
way of out and ont new appropriations.
