Gustavel, the Monticello furniture dealer, who is a big advertiser and has met the mail order competition with sledge hammer blows, states that there were 165 marriage licenses issued in White county last year and that his business averaged SIBO for each license. Since there are seven other furniture dealers in that county and the mail orders have been making an effort to get a foothold, ne argues that his showing is a remarkabel one and that much of his business came from a territory classed as “outside” the natural field. He has been engaged in the manufacture of davenports and couches and Th order to give his full time to this business has arranged for Carl R. Gustavel to continue his furniture business. Board of Health Notice. Quarantine Ruling.—The quarantine rulings in reference to whooping cough are more stringent now. The Board of Health will make the following ruling so far as Rensselaer is concerned: Every child known or suspected of being afflicted with whooping cough must be kept on the home premises, (in the house or about the yard), and not allowed to leave for any reason whatsoever. Neither will they be allowed to play with neighboring children even on their own premises. Also, this being a reportable disease now, the Board of Health must hold Rensselaer physicians for every case not reported.— Secretary Board of Health.
