 We have just finished stock talk ing, and find that we are heavily overstocked so are making enorm- ous reductions in Hardware-as much as 50% in certain lines. Not withstanding immense advances out side, especially in Hardware and Metal Goods, we are still selling on the basis of goods purchased the past two or three years.
 We will sell for cash only at these prices, and for limited time, until we bring our stock down to the re- quirements of the Camp.
 If you have an order to be filled let us figure on it; we can save you money. We have proved it ol others, we can prove it to you.

following essay on the Scotch race:

himself, sends the Independent the
following essay on the Scotch race:
Scotland is a Draw wee land, on the
north of England. It has water nearly
al around it, and and whiskey over a
large part Of it. The population is
about four and half millions, includ-
ipg. Mr.. Carnegie. It has a peculiar
language Of its own, and if one can
pronounce it coherently, it is an infal-
lible test of sobriety. 1t possesses con-
siderable wealth in minerals, but very
little Of it finds it's way out Of the
country Gold has at times been dis
covered in certain districts, as well as
in the pockets Of certain natives, but
in both cases it has been found difficult
to work.
The best known exports of Scotland
are Harry Lauder and Scotch Whiskey,
though sufficient Of the latter is re-
tanned in the home country to satisfy
the demands of home consumption.
The national dress of Scotland is
the kilt, which is kind of short petit
coat. In pattern it resembles a chess
board, though in cold weather the
wearer finds it more like a draught
board. 1t is believed to have been or
iginally invented because the aborig-
ines were unable to find trousers big
enough to get their feet through.
The bag-pipe provides the chief
music of the country. It is wind
instrument, which is said, when blown,
to produce a tune. On occasions in
the history of war, Scotch regiments
have marched to death listening to
thu e+ro;pe of ho pDipac thO11ph If is
not known that their willingness to
meet death was inspired by their de-
sire to escape the bagpipes.
Scotland has produced many we'll
known men, among them being Robert
Burns, believed to have been poet
His most famous poems are "Scots
VIVA Hae," "Stop Your Tickling,
Jock"
The national characteristic of Scot
land is usually Reckless Expenditure.
