BEWARE OF STEEL RANCE PEDpLERs
When Will the Buying Public Learn
to Protect Itself7

You can best do this by buying
from your home merchants at Il
price from $50 to 1925 less money, on
easier terms, with a guarantee of the
manufactures and your home dealer.
When you deal at home you are
dealing with no strangers. The home
merchant is striving to do an honest
business and must deal fairly with
you. We are not offering out-of-
date, back number, inferior stoves at
profit Of 100 to $50 per cent. above
cost. We are satisfied with Is per ct.
profit, Does it not seem strange that
these shrewd peddlers catch so many
of you and palm off their so-called
"malieable" ranges as something
superior" and even "wonderful?"
If you will call at my place of bus
mess j will show you a malleable
Garland Range worth any three
ranges such as peddlers are selling
and you shall be the judge--for SIS
less money. Respectfully,

The Angels Rich Harvest.

AT the termination of two ieesing
hours after the sun had passed the
meridian height on Saturday. March
| 4, 1905, celestial messenger, with
sickle keen, visited happy home in
this city and cut the slender thread
| which bound a beautiful life to all
that was earthly. Allusion is made
to the death OF Mrs. Stacy Kitto, wife
of the gentlemanly and competent
foreman of the Tribune, and in any
attempt at chronicling the announce
ment in proper and comprehensive
manner the publishers ability pales
in the shadow of sorrow.
Mrs. Annie Stephenson Kitto was
born in Mineral Point on the 9th day
of December, 1878, which shows that
her earthly career was of 26 years
and three months duration, and all
of which was spent in our midst.
From earliest childhood her life was
one of sweetness and purity, COM
manding the admiration of all with
| W HON she came in contact, and to say
| that every member of this communi-
| ty laments her untimely death is but
| the simple fact. Ten brief months
| ago deceased graced the hymeneal
altar and took the vow which made
her the happy wife of Mr.. Kitto. To
| them the intervening period has
been one of exceptional devotion and
comfort, and why this severing by
| Providence of two such harmonious
lives is one of the mysteries never to
be solved by mortal man. AS So
lacing thought we have the scriptual
assurance that "to die is GAIN

New School Building formally Opened

Per arrangements, the formal open
ing OF our magnificent and substan-
tial new high school building took
place last Friday evening in the
spacious assembly room thereof. The
attendance was very large, testing the
capacity of the room To its utmost
which clearly demonstrated the great
interest our citizens take in school
affairs. The program was ample and
entertaining, each number receiving
merited applause. Those parts taken
by students of the high school were
exceedingly pleasing, especially the
address of response by Will Bohan.
This young man displayed rare
ability in the mastery of compost
tion and magnetic power of delivery,
considering age and opportunities.
His effort would have reflected credit
on one much higher in educational
life. The excellent grade of the nu-
steal talent which pervades our high
school ranks was pleasant purprise
to one and all of the large audience.
1t is doubtful if any high school in
the state can equal it.
At the close of his address Mayor
Osborne announced the expense in
Cured in erecting and equipping the
building to be $50, 2Sl .0S, up to the pres
ent time. That is IA good round sum,
it is true; but we have something to
show for it, while the arrangement
for its payment is such that no citi-
zen will ever feel it as a burden.
In connection with this monument
to our advanced state of civilization
there is the progressive and compe-
tent corps of instructors, and the in
tense interest and unbroken harmony
among all classes. Well may Mineral
Point be proud Of the healthy condi.
tion of her educational affairs.

GAIETY GIRLS DISCOVERY
"a Little Bit of String" the Ditty
That Helped the Cause
Along.

LONDON. July 29.-The effect of GER
tain drugs on babies has been discussed
in London medical journals for some
time as though it were an important
hygienic question, and now comes Ella
line Terris, the famous Gaiety singer,
with proof that sets awry all the
learned doctors decisions that Infants
can be put to sleep only by soft low
lullabies.
Miss Terris. who in private life is
Mrs. Seymour Hicks. and the devoted
mother of Beta ElIaune Mary Hicks.
born on January 16, has told her friends
that she has sung every lullaby that
was ever written, and has failed to
soothe her baby to sleep.
One day, after trying experience OF
this kind, and when the baby's nurse
was absent. the songstress sang "A Lit
tie Bit of String" the ditty which the
present King once declared TO be one
of the finest compositions he ever heard
to the infant and it fell asleep before
she had concluded the first refrain.
Since then both nurse and mother
have been saved many anxious moments
