ABOUT
 COUGH
 BUYING

The couch business today is like sF great many other things, good, bad anal half way between. You probably meant to buy good couch when yotA bought onepaid a good price for it,
 but it may have been your poor luc4z to find that you paid for the covering and the frame and that the coucil went to pieces long before it ought t0 have done. The principal part of tha life of the couch is in the spring work. Most dealers fail to show customer how a couch is made up on the inside It may look all right, even if you did see it, not knowing just how a couch ought to be made to have it last with out the springs turning over or wear ing through into the upholstery work. The only positive way to guard against this is to see that the couch you intend to buy has woven wire mattress on the top of the springs. Such constr11c~ tion will prevent the springs from do- ing any damage to the upholstery. Tina Hampson- SeIlew Furniture Company are the agents for these cele3ated woven-wire topped couches. They have sold hundreds of them Those who have purchased one years ago will tell you that 1t has stood up flne that it is practically as good as the day they bought 1t. Buying 8 couch of this kind therefore is the strictesr economy. It's only one of the many good points of the Hampson-Sellew Company to furnish good couch when vo1J 11pads orla s{ssSg 5

PAaKER AND DAVIS
 CLUB TO BE FORMED

The democratic town committee will hold meeting tonight for the purpose of forming Parker and Da- wis club in the first ward. All. demo- crats and others in that district who intend to support the democratic can didates this fall are invited to be pres ent. This is the preliminary step to the formation of Parker and Davis clubs in all the wards. Chairman Burns said this afternoon that the committee had decided upon this course some time ago and concluded to commence the work of organization by districts. The dates for the forma- tion of the other wards will be an- nounced later, each one being taken up in it's turn from the first to the sixth. A systematic canvass is being made by the town committee and by the time the lists are completed everything will be in good shape for the battle. If you know anybody in your ward whose name is not on the lists or who is eligible to become a voter, take his name and send it in to the committee, and they will attend to it. Bear in mind that the last date for fling appli- cations to be made is October IT. If you let 1t go beyond that you cannot vote for Parker or Roosevelt, nor for Watson, either, this year.

THE MONROE SUIT.
Lawyers and Principals are Fighting
 it Out To.Day.

The suit of Francis Fray against w. Irving Monroe for $1OO damages occu- pied Judge Burpee and petit jury in the city court, civil side, all day. This is very interesting case and involves the question of veracity ill an adver- tisement. The defendant is proprietor of Monfoe's business college on Bank street, which embraces all the branch es of commercial education. The plaintiff is young fellow employed in a local stock brokers office. He claims to have been misled by an advertise ment of the defendant He appears to be native of Burlington, Vt, where he was living at the time he saw the defendants advertisement i'll a paper or magazine. In this advertisement the defendants school was called s1The National School of Telegraphy, !" and the plaintiff got the idea from its phraseOlogy that it was very large concern. It also told him that sin- spring lectures were frequently g1y- en in the school and graduates from other schools take a final course there: Plaintiff claimed that he had no .sin- spring lectules;;' that all the lectures he heard was one which was given more in the form of an entertainment than aS HI 3euuCdUOHdI ledIuIe O1@ UHp school, and also that he neither saw nor knew any graduates there from any other school He left Burlington last August, paid $40 for his course in the school left it as wise about tele- graphy as before he entered. Then he got a position in an office where he learned telegraphy.
 The defense is a general denial. It is claimed that it was because of his knowledge of telegraphy, acquired in the defendants school during the short period he was there, that Fray was given the position referred to.
 Judge Peasley represents the plaint+ if, Attorney Church the defendant, and the jury consists of Edward E. Platt,. l.. M. Camp, Herbert w. Lake, Louis Raymond, Kendriek Wheeler and Louis N. Bernier.
