While many choice bargains we're Sc
cured by visitors to the store yester-

Mrs. L. NJ. Hewitt and daughter.
Miss Hazel, arrived home last night
from Era, Penn, where they had Wis
tied for two months past. At the
grand central station in St. Louis

containing railroad transportation and
Pullman tickets being removed from
her side on the seat while she dozed.
Fortunately nothing of high value was
contained in :he receptacle and she
vas subjected to no inconvenience
whatever.

that IL is glad to see expert labor

need them-but we are sadly lacking
ir commercial enterprises that have
large pay rolls. Those that are here
should be encouraged and others in.
