V. V. Robinson and wife, who have
been visiting with their son and daugh-
ter, returned last week from Montana
and while Van has not much to say
against the country we take it that he

over in our neighboring state and has
about decided to remain in Grangeville.

by the shipments he is now making
from the Pacific to the Atlantic.
1t costs like sixty to be sweet these
days. Sugar has raised another 10
cents. We would recommend that a
splendid substitute for sugar in the
coffee would be to use a nickle, drink
the coffee, use the imagination and
the young man on occasions of visits
to see the fair one, why not take
pickles, instead of bon bons. Pickles
are recommended as love tonic.

iston today to meet the representative
of an Eastern furnishing house. With
the constant advance in all lines the
clothing business has been affected
along with other commodities but for
tunately the Grangeville merchants had
sufficient foresight to lay in heavy
stocks at the old prices. This trip of
Sasenbery's is for the purchases of the
very latest in little fixings for men.

of spring, nor is it the record breaking

winter morning but to that bird the
stork is due the credit, Harry having re-
ceived word this week of the arrival
of fine baby girl at the home of his
son and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. j. E.
Merrifield, of Walla Walla. 1t is
happy grandad Harry from now on.
Is it right to use the town in your
section just to go to church in and to
send the children to school and enjoy
the various social features of, and then
do your buying in some other fellow g
town? No town can be built up on
such system. Don't you want to see

must go where the dollars go in order
to get their share of them.-Nezperce
