We Give More

"We used to believe in giving premiums—free tickets, etc.—to induce the people to trade with ue but we have found out that there are very few people who do not prefer to pay for all they get, as well as to get all they pay for.

Than Free Ticket

There is one thing certain—a merchant who gives a premium or free ticket, or anything else worth 25c to 50c, with every purchase of $5.00 worth of goods, can afford to sell the same amount of goods for $4.50 or $4 75 and allow his customer to keep the 25c or 50c.

With Every

And every customer would sooner have the cash than the free ticket or premium. So we have cut off all the expense of the free gift business and instead give our customers the cash. And this applies not only to a $5.00 purchase, but to every purchase of every size.

$5.00 Purchase.

Our low running expenses is what 'enables us to give extra values. "Satisfaction is wrapped up in every bundle."

You can lead a horse to water,. But you can not make him drink You can tell a man your thoughts.

But you can not make him think. Blood from a turnip you can not. draw, And there is no use to try The world you can not rule.

And you'll lind out by and by. When God created man, To him he gave a mind That he might know what's right and wrong,

And it is best you'll find. To look at home before abroad, And don't for others plan: But when they ask you for your help, Just do the best you can. Don't tell a man your thoughts,

And try to make him think You can leud a horse to water, But you can not make him drink.

here for thirty years and could note many changes. ,v.. The east and west ends met in deadly contest Tuesday evening at the bowling alley, five of the true and tried on a side.

Had the fire bell rung its fire alarm Main street would not have been half so crowded with pushing and surging humanity as it was Saturday evening when Frank Custer drove in with the dun mare stolen some months ago, and known as "Smackfoot.' Each must lay hands on her, each must question Frank as to the distance she had traveled, wtat he had spent in the search, where the buggy was, and if she had the distemper, if he thought she had been hurt in the drive, if the fellow was glad to give her up, how, where and when he found her. Now Frank is not much c! a talker, yet he did say that W. W. Faust, of Indianapolis, told him the mare was in a livery barn there: he and Ward Little had gone over, proved and paid all necessary expenses and gotten her. During all this time "Smackfoot" stood silent and serene, the picture of happiness, but yellow aa ever and proud of the reoeption given her. She was found to have all

the various road gaits she had been accused of, and ready for her rations, but her looks spoke plainly that if she could talk she could unfold a tale that would harrow up the soul of the most unscrupulous Darlingtonite in the crowd, and convict someone of cruelty to animals.

Sugar Creek township joined with Franklin township in the graduating exercises of their public schools at the south Christian church in this place Wednesday evening. The church had been decorated for the occasion. The graduates numbered fifteen, ten from Franklin and five from Sugar Creek. Two from Sugar Creek were absent, E. B. Welsheimer and Chas. L. Parker the remaining thirteen were in tlioir places, Lora Steele, Hiram Hampton and Monroe Pittman, of Sugar Creek, Roy Peebles, Bessie Deck, Ethel Merryman, Lulu M. Smith, Floy Seybold, Homer Cooper, Clifford Quigg, Claude Virts, Glen A. Pickerel and Leslie Burroughs, of Franklin. Contrary to the usual custom on such occasions the boys out-numbered the girls. The trustees of each township had each passed upon the essays of each student and the congregation was saved a couple of hours hard work. The New Ross orchestra was on hand and furnished the music for the occasion and well did they perform their part, as they proved themselves all good musicians and delighted the audience. Supt. W. B. Walkup introduced the graduates and at the same time Rev. L. E. Bj-own, of Frankfort, as the speaker of the evening and the one chosen to deliver the class address. He took for his subject "The Flag We Float," being the title of a celebrated lecture of his, and by digressing a little at times to suit the occasion the subject was most fitting, as he clearly proved that from the time Betsy Ross changed the star from six points to five until to-day the Hag had stood for and represented everything that was good, but nothing more than education. His remarks at this point to the class were beautiful and full of instruction to all. Mr. Brown is a fluent and forceable speaker, and his lecture was well received by all. At the close of the lecture Supt. Walker in a few well chosen remarks presented each with a diploma and another class was through the public school. M. U. Hollowell, trustee of Sugar Creek, and I. H. Butler, trustee of Franklin, deserve much praise for the manner and programme given at this time. Each proved themselves interested in this educational work, and we bespeak for both these townships a bright future in school work.
