The merchants are laying in a good
supply of Christmas goods. and the
assortment will be sufficiently vari-
cd to meet all tastes. The crops in
this vicinity this year have not been
up to the standard, and the prices
for grains have been very low. yet
people must have Christmas goods or
life would not be worth living. And
it 10 the right idea.'

Every merchant that places an adj
vertisement in the local paper is a
booster for the town." says the Pella
(Ia.) "Chronical. 1.-The merchant
that advertises, not only helps to
bring trade to his own store but helps
every other business concern in town.
The man that does not advertise is
not to be classed among progressive
merchants. He IS doing more to re-
tard development Of town or COM
munity than anyone else. No man.
firm. or concern, is so well establish
ed in business that he or they can af.
ford to ignore the drawing power Of
