Correction.

The Dwiggins Wire Fence Co. writes
to ]. M. Coldwell, this city, their sales
man, that competitors are circulating
reports with merchants that the COM
pany is selling direct to the farmer at
the same price that they sell to them,
and state plainly that this not correct,
for they do nothing Of the kind, They
state en- phatically that they do not make
a business of selling to the farmer and
never at the same price as they offer
the merchant. In few instances farm
ers have been sold who could not buy
the Dwiggins fence in their own neigh
borhood. The company states that they
even go further than some manufactur-
ers do in referring farmers to the local
dealers, and in that way protect the
dealer as much as they can.
The Commercial makes this eorrec-
ton for the reason that this paper mad.
yertantly inspired the false impression
relative to the sales Of the Dwiggins fence
to the farmers direct What The Com.
mercial was trying to do was to give
Mr.. ColdwelI personal notice upon his
taking up the work with the DwigglnS
Co. Mr.. Coldweil having informed us
that the company sold direct from the
factory to the local merchants. In writ
ing the notice we got the impression
confused with selling direct to the con.
sumner, and that is the way it was incor'
rectly published in the paper We re-
greet, Of course, the error, and writs
| this in order to do what we can towards
correcting it.

part of spring, from which she did not
entirely recover, having been confined to
her bed for a great portion of the time.
She endured her suffering with the
greatest patience, and always manifest
ed the same sweet disposition in sick
ness as in health. She was good
friend to all and was always delighted
to give some gift or do some deed Of
kindness unto her neighbors and friends.
She was ever ready to administer to the
sick. The last four years Of her life she
was not physically able to attend church
regularly, but her noble life was proof
enough of her christianity. The steps
Of this good woman were surely direct
