Going my way? Yes, I'm little
late. Stopped to buy some Sealshipt
oysters for supper.
"What are they? Why, nothing
but just the finest oysters you ever
tasted in your life.
Too dear for workingman"?
That's where you are dead wrong.
They are the only oysters poor man
can afford to buy. When you buy
Sealshipt oysters you get solid meats,
and you're not paying for dirty ice-
water. My wife says that pint of
Sealshipt will go as far as a quart OF
other oysters.
And as for the favor-you come
down some Sunday night and my wife
win give you an oyster stew that will
make you think you never tasted an
an oyster before.

ZINC WORKS TO REMAIN
Notwithstanding Many Unfounded
Reports to the Contrary.

The reports that the plants of sthe
Zinc Company are to be removed
from Mineral Point to Depue are with
out foundation. There has been some
talk on the part of the officers of the
company Of discontinuing the manu-
facture of sulphuric acid here; but
even this step has not been decided on
by the Company. Preparations are
now being made to start up the oxide
works as soon the demand for the
product makes it necessary for the
Company to do so. It is hoped that
both departments will be running to
their full capacity during the coming
season.
