Advantages of Badness.

There are many advantages accruing
even from bald heads. 1t has been
pointed out by an eminent doctor that
bald headed men never suffer from con-
sumption, and that tendency to bald
ness is an assurance that the dreaded
scourge will pass over him. The
doctor has under treatment more than
600 cases, and he makes the further
statement that, in census of more than
5000 tuberculosis cases, he failed to
discover single sufferer who was bald
This remarkable fact is unaccounted
for.-EX.

A crafty angler, boy or man, will
hunt out the good "fishing holes"
and always drop his hook in them.
! S. Seidenfeld came to Murray City
+ some years ago and engaged in the
general store business by hard and
earnest toll and with determine
tion to "stay with it" he succeed
ed. He always endeavored to work
to his customers interest as well
as his own and he found out that
after awhile he was not angling in
shallow water, nor using the wrong
bait and the result is that the busi-
ness founded by him has and is
still growing.
The Stores of the 5. Seide nfeld
Est. located on the corner of Cen

dergoing a wonderful change. Ar

the past thirty days decorating the
entire interior of the Stores. The
Shelving, counters and tables have
all received their portion of adorn-

will leave for Cleveland and the

devote two weeks in visiting the
best markets for their goods and
to buying for the fall and winter

the writer that they had placed

The popularity of these goods are
unquestionable.
The firm has made itself i'm
