Unmarked Graves.

Have you ever taken notice OF the
large number OF unmarked graves
in U local cemeteries, or remarked
how fast the Numbers are increasing
each year? Why is it? Surely in
these times OF prosperity there are
few who cannot afford to buy a
suitable mark Of some kind for their
departed friend or relative. In most
cases it is not a lack OF funds, or a
lack of inclination. but simply pro-
crastination and why this is so, we
do not understand. Do not put it
of any longer. 1t is not such a
task. 1t is not necessary to send
away for monuments any more.
Come and e OUT stock, or drop us a
card. you who are interested, and
we will call on you with a full line
OF samples and designs. We carry a
large stock OF work on hand, aud can
supply anything from a $40 marker
to a $500 monument on short notice.
Give us a chance to show you what
we have, and we will convince you
that our prices are right. and there
is no use of your delaying this mat
ter any longer.

weeks ago for the purpose OF buying
land. but he hasn't bought yet.
He had heard much about South
Dakota and expected TO see a pretty
fine country, but what he saw so far
exceeded bis expectations that he
cannot believe it is all real. He has
explored the neighborhood thorough

buy. He believes there is something
wrong somewhere, and until he finds
out what it is he is afraid of being
stgold bricked.n He unbosomed
himself to Mr.. Collins in this MAI

There has been so much talk
