continued on down the road for 4

tongue struck a fence post and the
wagon stopped. The horses went on,

water from the creek to irrigate the

been necessary to head the ditch on
the Straughn farm. During the life
OF Mr.. Southwell this fact was the
source of money trouble but after his
death the widow went to her neigh
Dor for the purpose of reaching an
amicable agreement whereby she
could continue to get water for her
fields. Straughn named some changes
which he would require her to make
in the ditch and said that If these
were made they would have no fur

went smoothly until one day Strau-

The Past, Present and Future
All in One Chapter.

Glance over the past-through the
vista of long years you will see the
shadow Of numerous music houses
struggling in their might and strength
to gain the threshold of prominence
and success-coming and going, as it
were, boasting for awhile and van
ishing entirely. Only one has stood
the test of time-The Sherman Clay
& Co. Look at the present-see the
large elegant establishment towering
I and overshadowing all others With
| in its walls you will hear the deep
sOnorous tones of the "Steinway"
the piano that is known all over the
world, see the Everett, A. B. Chase,
Packard and watch the conquering
Ludwig and then ponder whether or
not it is possible for a rival to ap-
, proach or to compete with The Sher-
man Clay & Co.
1t is well to reflect on these things.
Mushroom firms don't last. A record
! or reputation cannot be built up in
a month or year. A faker may do
q lot Of business for awhile. but he
/ does not tarry long. A quack secures
some patronage but continually he
moves on. We like honest compe-
tition; and if it were possible for
some good, live energetic concern to
appear here-say with Everett, Pack
ard, Ludwig pianos as against us
with the world renowned Steinway
and \. 3. Chase, there would be
some chance for some OF these con-
Germs. but otherwise never.

kind of cellar about thirty feet be-

such cases but has brought suit
against the bank for a share in the

thing like 100000. Mr.. Page finds
himself in a decided hole. Whether
he wins or not he will have to spend
