ECONOMY.

We all want to economize as much as we possibly can as time draws near to, ,Christpas, still there are things that We have to have, house. hold necessities and it behooves all of us to- take advantage of the special sales from time to time.
 You will note in the advertisement of the Anchor Furniture Company, their extra specials for Monday and Tuesday, all of which are houshold necessities, being offered at price far below their value and in addi- tion to the articles in this add, everything in their store will, be sold these two days at correspond ing low prices.
 The management, considers sthis one of the best advertising mediums, by selling an article that .is good at certain times below it's value, for the reason, it is a life long adver- tiscment an article at any price, II it is cheeply made or poorly con- structed and try to lead the public to believe that they are getting some thing at a price, that is of little value. There are genuine bargains, the best made of their kind,s and you will save money by making your purchases at the Anchor next Monday or Tuesday. s
 Any article in the store may be selected either of these two days and they will store them free until Christmas, thus giving your advan- tage of the Sale Price and, what is of further interest you can make your Christmas presentssby paying a little each week aand not miss the money andshaxe the; goods delivsfed Sanytime during the chrissnlas week.

in fact~to all who by reason of age or infirmity cannot stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills or purgatives. These should always be avoided, for at best their effect is only for that day, while a. genuine remedy like Syrup Pepsin acts mildly but permanently.
 ;, It can be conveniently obtained at any drug store at fifty cents or one dollar a bottle. Results are always guaranteed or money will be refund ed. You will find it gentle in ac- tion, pleasant ill taste, and free from griping, and it's tonic properties have a distinct value to women. It is the most widely used laxative-tonic in America today and thousands of families are now never without it.
 Families wishing to try free sam pie bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr. w. B. Caldwell, 419 Washington street, Monticello, III. A postal card with your name and address on it will do.

REAL ROOF ]: GARDEN
rhe Kind They Plant on Los Cabin, ~. In Rural Norway.

L. :. The log cabins, of rural Norway are built of heavy pine logs hewed square and of equal size from end to end They are usually stained or oiled, and their rich yellowish or brOwnish coloi Is in harmony with almost any sur roundings. Their roofs are sodded, a circumstance that adds picturesqueness to the general effect
 :. II have come across roofs that were riot of wild pansies," says writer in the Craftsm any s1s.nnd I have seen wonderful roofs where wild roses hung over the caves or a: daisy roof, the eff feet of whose white, starlile flowers. toppihg the dark brown structure, was exquisitely picturesque.
 Some roofs produce only pasture grass, and he story runs in Norwegian folklore that lazy nlanled his cow on the roof - the cabin was built against hill--instead of taking her to the pas t,ire I have no dbhbt that the story is true, for I have often seen couple of white kidlets- gaAAboling on the soft greer, hoi1setops wflfs the mother goat, grave and rnminaNttys. was tethered to the chimney.
