FURNISH YOUR THIRD HOUSE FIRST It is an old saying that a man builds his third house before he gets one to suit him. This is equally true of house furnishing. False standards of taste, mis-leading economies and lack of knowledge cause costly errors. Many mistakes in the furnishing of the home are due to ill advice. A salesman selling from a limited stock is tempted to force the goods in hand or miss the sale. No such temptation besets the path of the salesman at this store. It is a source of pride to all that the assortments are so wide and so varied in every line that every nice discriminating shade of taste and every whim of fancy may be consulted to the most artistic degree. , We Spare You Costly Mistakes This, right at the beginning, sparing you costly mistakes and positively enabling you to furnish your third house first. It is this comprehensive stock of unequaled quality and this supreme service, combined with fair prices, that make this store the great store that it has grown to be. SHIVELY BROS.

COUNTY LEVIES Pi NEXT YEAR TO BE 2/ CENTS PROPOSED BUDGET FOR ELKHART COUNTY FOR 1923 ANNOUNCED Seven Cent Levy Will Be Made for Next Year for County Road Bonds and Interest. County tax levies for 1923 will total 27 cents on each SIOO valuation, according to the report to be submitted by County Auditor Charles A. Croop to the county council on September 6, when that body will meet to fix the rate. The county levy proper, for the ordinary county expenses, will be 16 cents, the some as this year, in spite of; the fact that over $7,000,000 has been cut from the appraised valuation of the county. To this is added one cent for county Improvements bonds, which had not been levied last year, making a total of 17 cents. Anew levy" of 7 cents is made for next year to care for the county unit road bonds and interest. Contracts lor eleven new county roads were awarded this year, making it necescary to raise $78,375 to pay off bonds and interest next year. Because of the addition of these roads to the county system, it was also necessary this year to raise the county gravel road repair levy from, two to three cents. All roads which are improved either by the county or townships, are thereafter taken over by the .county to be kept in repair, and it is estimated that $30,000 will be needed for this purpose next year. The budget for county expenses, other than roads, is fixed at $201,673.76. The county will have $23,100 from sources other than taxation next year, making it necessary to raise $177,573.76 by taxation, for which a levy of 17 cen-ts has been fixed. The county council, at its meeting on September 6 wilj also fix the gravel road bond levies for the various townships, to care for the bonds and interest on township roads. The levy for Elhart -township wil be 10 cents.
