The seventy eighth year of exist
ence finds the Toledo Blade more pop
ular than at any period during its long
and successful career. 1t is read each
week by more than a million people.
The Blades field is national and it
goes into every state and territory in
the United States, thereby giving it an
unquestionable right of claiming to be
the greatest national weekly newspaper
published in America.
The Weekly Blade is distinctly a
family newspaper. The one object of
its publishers has always been to max
it fit for the American home, for the
fireside, and of interest to every mema
Der of the family To fulfill this pur-
pose it is kept clean and wholesome
The news of the world is handled in a
comprehensive manner, and the various
departments of The Blade are edited
with painstaking care. The Household
page is a delight to the women and
children; current affairs are treated
editorially without prejudice; the serial
stories are selected with the idea of
pleasing the greatest number of fiction
lovers; the Question Bureau is a scrap
book of information; the Farmstead
columns are conducted with the pur-
ose of giving the patrons a medium-f
pfor the exchange of ideas and infor
nation or farm topics. No department
is neglected, but every feature is taken
care of with the idea of making The
Blade worth many times the price of
subscription-one dollar year.

HOLBROOK'S PROUD
OF ITS new STORE

The Scorse Bros, William
and James. comprising the Hol-
brook Drug Co., are now in their
new store, the Ghuey store,
which they have completely over
hauled and made new.
1t is a store bnilding that would
be credit to a city of any size.
The store front is entirely of
glass, and the show window is
large and roomy, giving space
for a thorough display of goods
carried.
The drug store proper is in the
fore part of the building, front
ing the railroad. The rest of the
building is made into offices; one
occupied by DR.. j. w. Bazell,
consisting of two rooms in which
the doctor has installed every
appliance needed, and they pre-
sent n more than inviting ap-
pearance in fact, the prettiness
and coziness of his office most
make one we'll to enter them, and
no doctors Office anywhere can
eclipse his.
R. S. Teeple has two Offices
adjoining DR.. Bazell's which he
will use for business purposes.
They are furnished in manner
to lead one to believe he was in
a metropolitan city office. Mr..
Teeple's business has grown to
the point that a modern up-to-
date office had become a necessity.
Tha next office room is to be
occupied by w. H. Clark as a
real estate and other business
office, which he will have fitted
up in way and looks as to be one
of the incest offices to be found
anywhere.

The farmers out here are nearly
all through threshing their wheat,
which, it is said, gave a very sat-
isfactory yield. Corn crops are
looking fairly well, and with prop
er weather conditions during
this month, we are anticipating a
very fair yield of that cereal; this,
with the fact that the crop Of hay,
was very good, and now a very
fair prospect for a large crop of
millet hay, will insure pretty good
times, the coming fall and winter,
for the farmers.
A few candidates were in this

In the Morning.

o, the sweet repose that rules at pearly
dawn,
When wrapt's the soul in soundest
slumberl
When, though the burden Of the night is
gone,
Its shadows still the earth encumberl
The quiet hour 'twixt then and full-Iit day,
Ali care and hope and sorrow scorning,
Doth crown the night, but ends its sway
When Alexander comes nthe morning.
For he comes from Jerseydale with clang-
ing bell
In quarrel with the peaceful air;
Its harsh, commanding tones his coming
tell :,
And wake the echoes everywhere.
We rouse us out, and then, with cup in
hand,
Scant toggery our form adjoining,
Make haste; nor on u dignity may stand
When Alexander comes in the morning.
Neat the yellow rig, and lettered large
and plain,
Within whose space he's closely seated;
And sleek the horse with flowing tail and
name,
Who knows his round each day repeated.
The can that holds the tactical store is
bright,e
The rising suns first rays returning
o, sure we all take in a welcome sight
When Alexander comes in the morning!
Heartiness is in his ann and his voice,
A smile goes ever with his greeting;
He, as he measures out his liquid choice,
RetailS the news since our last meeting.
He talks Of crops, of growing grass and
grain,
The benefits Of cows dehorning-
Untold the information that we gain
When Alexander comes in the morning!
Thrifty housewives answer prompt his
changing call,
Aware the op'ning days demanding,
And then, when served, exchange, tho
hurried all,
A little gossip, Notwithstanding,
Anent the births and weddings late or
soon to be,
OF strangers in the town sojourning,
Andmaybe, too, discuss they you and me
VIGIL LAlCAdlluCI SOlllCo III LllC Hull llllS.
Yes, I've heard it said the widows on his
beat
Do linger lovingly the while
He thus procrastinateS aside the street,
But this has his and their denial.
Yet, be it true, how could he say them nay,
AS tho their gentle presence scorning G?
What harm is it to so begin the day
When Alexander comes in the morning2
Fair or foul, or wet or dry, the weather
is no bar
Against his early daily coming;
He scouts the rain, the elements at war,
The now and winters cold benumbing.
Our coffee never fails its rich-hued brown
If we but heed the bells loud warning,
And butter sweet We get to breakfast
crown,
When Alexander comes in the morning.
Long, 0 long, | pray, may Alexander live
To drive his car and ring his bell,
To crack his joke and full-lipped measure
give
Of dairy truck he brings to sell.
I'll rise from off myrestful, downy couch
That dream shall die a-borning-
I'll hasten straightway out, with meier a
crouch,
When Alexander comes in the morning!
