JOE’S SMILES AND GOOD CHEER.

Huntington Morning Times, Dec. 22.—Huntington now has a new merchant and he is one of those fellows who has a smile and a pleasant greeting for every one he meets. It is Joe Jeffries, the new proprietor of the Truth grocery fecpntly purchased of Mrs. Allda Tuttle. He took possession yesterday morning and with the same force of clerks, the new proprietor is* handling out the goods to the many customers and shaking hands with every one that comes in as if he knows them and their ancestors for generations back. Mr. Jeffries has been the cashier in a bank at Rensselaer. He knows every detail of the operation of a business place and aS he has secured one of the best business houses in the city, he is destined to enjoy success from the start. His family will be here about January 1 and they will become permanent residents of Huntington.
