as our readers will perceive. The COR

local page, but the usual amount Of local
matter will be found on other pages.
Our advertising columns this week are
full of good reading and contain sugges-
tons to buyers that will be OF great ad-
vantage to all who desire to purchase
good goods at price that will touch the
pocket book lightly. The next four weeks
will be good time to trade in Bedding.

the electric stereopticon. Service at 100.
