The liquor men at Pocahontas are

church or school. If the amendment
should be adopted by the Senate and

Colonial Reception.

The Colonial Reception given at the
residence of Mr.. A. st. Clair by the
ladies of the Home Mission Society of
Main Street Methodist church on last
Thursday night was in every particular
a success. More than three hundred
persons attended the reception and
greatly enjoyed the affair. At least
fifty ladies and gentlemen wore appro-
pirate costumes, many of them very
fine ones and all of them nice. Most of
the costumes were very becoming, and
some of the very ugliest boys were
even pronounced handsome. AS for the
ladies they were really lovely.
The refreshments served were abund-
ant and delicious, and the financial re-
suits of the entertainment were most
satisfactory. After paying all expenses
the ladies had about one hundred and
fifty dollars left.

One would think the laxative idea in a
cough syrup should have been advanced
long before it was. 1t seems the only
rational remedy for coughs and colds
would be to move the bowels and clean
the mucous membranes Of the throat and
lungs at the same time. Kennedy's Eaxa-
tive Honey and Tar does this. 1t is the
Original Laxative Cough Syrup, the best
known remedy for coughs, colds, Group,
whooping cough, etc. Tastes good and
harmless. Sold by John E. Jackson.

To the average man there is nothing SO
deceiving as the appearance of watch.
He may open the case and admire the
deliberately ornamented top plate and big
Jewels of what may be the most miserable
timekeeper it would be possible to find.
On the other hand he may not be much
taken with the palmer and less costly appear
ance of what is really good watch
A man buying watch has to depend al
most altogether on the assertions of the seller.
This is true, is it not? Then is it not to
your interest when you decide to purchase
watch to go to place where you can have
confidence In the one with whom you trade?
And if there should be any trouble with the
watch, POBST is more convenient than an ex-
ira trip to distant city.

We want to talk Millinery to you to-
day. You'll remember that few
weeks ago we had a special sale in our
Millinery Department at which we sold
all our pattern hats (ranging in price
from $500 to $1,000 for $1.98 each.
This sale naturally put people to talk
ing and created all sorts of comment.
Various reasons were assigned for the
sale. None of them correct. So today
we want to "put you wise" We are
not contented to rest on the record of
advancement in the past. We look for
wacd-planning and aspiring to do bet
ter in the future.
That sale was inaugurated for the sole
purpose Of cleaning up and getting rid Of
everything that might hinder or impede
Our progress in the Millinery Department
this season.
We have secured the services of one
of the best Milliners in the East to take
charge of this Department, and in a
very few days we will put on display
the most complete line of Ladies, Misses

our pleasure to show to the people of
TazeweIl, and at prices that viii make
