HOME WANTED FOR TWO BOYS.

Judge Fuller informs the Journal thai
he has two boys under his care, to fine
homes for. The boys are Of good family
and worthy of good home. While the
state industrial school designed for just
such unfortunate children, offers good
home, he would rather that they have a
more direct, personal home than that,
If possible
This would be fine chance for some
good humanitarian home, where there
are few or no children at all, to do a
useful and profitable work for society,
by taking these two boys

talked of apple today. This is what
one OF the greatest commission
houses in the country says of it,
Last year we secured one carload of Del
icious from Washington and placed them
in small lots in Chicago and large Eastern
cities at 40 per cent more in price than 9TH
err varieties we handled at that time. Who
ever had them last year, have repeatedly
asked for them this year before our supply
arrived. This year we are selling Delicious
at 80 per cent more than Jonathan, Grimes
Golden, Rome Beauty, Alexander, etc.
They arc just what particular people want
IN fine table apple. being neither too sweet
nor too sour. fine locker and have good
