New Jersey this week. During the
summer some people from there were
visiting in DEBORAH and visited this
store, and in looking over the big

than pleased with the fine assortment
and reasonable prices. When they got
home they decided to have some of
the furniture, SO sent in very fine
mail order. A sale like that certain
ly speaks we'll for this store and
the goods they carry. Yesterday af-
ternoon they took big load of fur

Reporter ComstOck is Now al
ATTORNEY


w. w. Comstock, for many years
past, reporter in Judge Hobson's
court, passed the state bar examina-
ton at Des Moines last week, and
now is a licensed attorney, ready for
practice whenever he gets his plans
complete for making the change from
one occupation to the other. Mr..
Comstock does not know how long
| it will be before he will begin ac-
tive practice, but when he does it is
likely to be in West Union. If he puts
into the practice of law the same eff
cheney he has in his work as repor-
ter, his success is a foregone conclu-
sion. His court work has been an
invaluable preparation, for he has
become familiar with every detail of
court procedure, and has had obser-
walton for many years of the work Of
scores of high class attorneys, not
only in every county of this judicial
district but also Of many eminent
practitioners from far and near, so
that correct principles should come
to him as second nature. He has
many warm friends here and all over
the district who will wish for him
abundant professional success

by Ole Void. The snake seemed to

body seemed to know what kind it
