Take Out My Classified Ad; It Did the Work In a Jiffy.

Moses Chupp had been trying to sell a buggy for a long time but there were no buyers apparently. Thursday he decided to try a Republican classified ad. The ad appeared for the first time that evening and before he went to bed he had sold the buggy to one of two applicants who were hot on the trail of one. The next morning he had the ad taken out, but he will be a patron of the column again if he ever has anything to sell. The minimum charge for jl classified ad is 25 cents. Four lines will run from one day to a week for a * quarter. Dan Lesh lost a shawl and it was returned two days after advertised in the Republican. Strangely it is the second time thlß same shawl was recovered through a classified ad in this paper.
