Notice is hereby given to those per
sons who deliberately try to damage my
business by making false and damaging
remarks regarding the construction OF
the houses which l built last year. It
has been stated that / placed inferior
material in these houses also that these
houses are poorly constructed and on
that account are very cold in winter.
j wish to state that my houses are con-
structed as we'll as the best houses in
this city. I have built 18s houses of
which 10 have been sold and are NOV
occupied by satisfied owners Il refer
all those persons who desire to know the
truth about how my houses are con-
5strucse d 20 the purchasers Of these houses.
Anyone Of the ten owners will say that
the houses are built out of first class
material and by experienced workmen.
Out Of the Is houses all but 8 are lined
with Flax Linum, which is one Of the
best warming materials which can be
bought on the open market. Therefore,
if in the future hear of any person
making false and damaging remarks
concering these houses I will go into
court and make him prove his statements,

NARROW ESCAPE OF LIFE AND

What might easily have proven to
be bad fire but for prompt action ia
ken to extinguish it started Tuesday
forenoon in the Huff harness shop
when q gasoline stove got ablaze and
for time threatened to start a good
sized confiagration. Mr.. Huff, propri-
etor of the harness shop, had just
lighted the stove to heat water for
washing harness when he noticed the
gas tank leaking. Almost as the match
touched the burner he noticed the es-
Gaping liquid and instantly shut of
the stop-cocks but the action came a
trifie too late and instantly the stove
was a mass of fame He at once COW

H. Nuxol, who was present at the
time, was throwing water on the flames
and trying to keep them from spread

was thrown out into small shed al

fell onto the can. He was soon envel
oped with flame and was dragged from
his perilous position by A. I'll. Nau
