Local Man Proves His Confidence in
Our Lands as Revenue Pro-
ducing Propositions.

had great confidence in the pres
ent and future Of our country
and have from time to time
shown their faith by their works
and by their investments.

this week purchased from
S. NJ. Downing the j. f. Cole.
man place two miles east of this
city, paying therefor fifty dol
lars per acre. Mr.. Cowling now
owns nearly one thousand acres

that he had six hundred acres
of milo maize and kaffir corn on
the place that he bought first
and that it would make fine re-
turns this year, but that he had

Castle Hall Presentation.

Every body knows that the To-
cal Pythians are having their full
share of the boom that fraternal
organizations are now enjoying.
The lodge is constantly receiving
new members and has more ap-
plications on file. The improve
ments to the castle hall make it
an ideal club room. A large sum
has been spent on renovation and
furnishings. The finishing touch
will come when the handsome
chairs ordered for the four sta
tons arrive and are put in place.
To add further to the good eff
feet, under the inspiration of
Chancellor, Joe Aschaffenburg,
some of the Pythians made up a
purse to buy large portrait of
J. r. Matthews to hang on the
wall of the lodge-room. This ex-
cellent picture reached here in
time for presentation to the lodge
at the regular meeting, Tuesday
night. This was done in a grace

Tenth Wedding Anniversary.

Mrs. W. L. FOrfeSGef entei-
tanned charmingly on Monday
afternoon in honor of the tenth
anniversary of her marriage.
The dates and the tiny little bell
on the cards of invitation pre-
pared her friends for the many
evidences of plenty of tin that
the pretty home bore in emblem
of the happy day. Friends, pres
ent and absent, also gave kindly
tribute of tin, and the assemblage
of this useful ware was quite i'm
posing.
It was however in the dining
room that the tin idea was most
ingeniously carried out. Broad
bands of tin foil were laid dag
onally across the snowy cloth,
and a tin plate held the centre
piece of flowers. A wedding bell
: hung just overhead from which
E streamers of white baby ribbon
went to each plate. At a signal,
each guest gave a little pull to
s her ribbon when a tally card in
{ the shape of a tin bell, came flut-
E tering down. 1t was to prove
E useful for the aftermath of pro
