A vast amount of business has been handled in Rensselaer this year. N. W. Reeve, the American express agent reports that the amount of express is double that of any previous year. It is peculiar that the express business here has picked up materially since the change in the plan of operation; that- is since the company employed a regular driver. Probably the prompt deliveries and the free collection of express has favored it. but the business has been almost swamped for several days now with outgoing and incoming Christmas packages. W« have in stock a line of fountain, bath and shampoo brushes. Ton will also find the largest line of high grade bathroom flxtares in "Art Brass” ever shown in Rensselaer. EL D. RHOADES * SON.
