R. P. Benjamin has established telephone communication between liis office and Hardman’s jewelry store. Any one wishing to order lumber, lath, shingles, wood or anything in that line, will find this a great convenience. He is now delivering sawed wood at $3.75. This is the cheapest way to get wood as you get better measure than you do when you buy cord wood and have it sawed. Try a cord or two and see for yourself. tt. .It is wise to provide against emergencies that are liable to arise in every., family.
