A CARD TO THE PUBLIC

Our grocery department stands be-
tween the wage carmen and all otganized
attempts to ourtail the purchasing power
of his dollar The Grocers' Association
shall never destroy legitimate COMPETE
ton aud dictate prices while The Fair
Store exists. We are opposed to all COM
binations that tend To destroy or curtail
the Purchasing power of the peoples
money. What an outrage to say In the
very face OF the people that they shall not
have the necessities of life except at some
given price, and that any man who sells
the people such necessities at less than
the price named by the Association snail
he driven ont of business; that's what
they attempted tn do with The Fair Store,
and that is what they would have done
with any s. re unable to Withstand the
guerrllla-lik methods reSorted to in the
attempt to ruin our business, or force us
to stand in with the Association. and
charge our patrons prices made and
agreed to by the Association. The story
Is being quietly circulated to the effect
that we have been forced to join the AS
ISOLATION, that wO paid dearly for our
membership, ETC., etc. The statement
that we have joined the Association or
made any attempt to do so is absolutely
false and is told with the evident attempt
to Deceive the people. This store stands
upon an absolutely independent footing.
We buy our goods in the open markets
of the world and sell them at the lowest
prices consi ,tent with the cost of handling.

THE DESIRE FOR LAND

Apropos of the interest manifested
in the opening TO settlement OF the
o,,,roran forest reserve lands, the
Post-Intelligcncer says: The trend
of modern thought Is in the direction
of the land Men of the hour are IN
tercsted in future investments that
will insure homes and peaceable sur
roundings for their declining years,
In former years the cry Tor
land was not so noticeable as at pres
cnt. Large areas were open to gen
cral use and few people thought of
irving to bring the public domain
under private fence or utilizing 1t for
personal cultivation. With the IN
crease conditions have changed. The
demand for wage-earners IS probably
ureater and will continue to increase,
but the matter of competition is
something that must be taken under
consideration. Business methods are
changing, and, while the present sys-
TEN is perfectly sound, there is lack
ING in individuality that causes the
average man to look longingly to the
farm for personal comfort in the fu-
turC.
THE desire for land is an indica-
ton of a home-loving people. 1t
shows that a majority of the human
family want peace and quietude. The
work is practically turning of man
to his first love Cities are made up
of farm graduates, Professions are
filled with the bright minds from the
farms. Many Of these people long to
return to their former conditions
When they can honorably throw off
the harness of responsibility in the
work of the business and professional
world they propose to leave the fu-
ture to the coming generation. 1t is
well that this idea should prevail, 1t
makes room for the young men and
builds homes for the old.

ONE OF DIR. CUPID'S PRESCRIPTIONS

That Love sometimes cures disease is
TACT that has recently been called to the
attention of the public by a prominent
physician and college professor In some
nervous diseases of women, such as hys-
terla, this physician gives instances where
women were put in a pleasant frame of
mind, were made happy by falling in love,
nervous troubles-the weak, nervous sys-
TEN toned and stimulated by little Dr.
Cupid became strong and vigorous, al
most without their knowledge. Many a
woman is nervous and irritable, feels drag
ged down and worn out, for no reason that
she can think of She may be ever so
much in love, but Dr. Cupid fails to cure
her. In ninety nine per cent of these
cases 1t is the wotnanly organism which
requires attention; the weak back, dizzy
spells and black circles about the eyes, are
only symptoms. Go to the source of the
trouble and correct the irregularities, the
drains on the womanly system and the
other symptoms disappear. So sure of il
is the Worlds Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, proprietors of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, that they offer $500 reward
for women who cannot be cured of leucor-
Thea, female weakness, prolapsus, or fall
ing of the womb. All they ask is fair
and reasonable trial of their means of cure
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets clear the
complexion and sweeten the breath, they
cleanse and regulate the stomach, liver and
bowels and produce permanent benefit and
do not react on the system. One is a
gentle laxative.
