Monon Shops At Lafayette Looking for Men at Fair Wages.

Agent Beam has received a letter from the superintendent of the Monon shops at Lafayette asking him to findsome men for employment in the Bhops. For common carpenters or good laborers the jobs pay from 15% to 16% cents an hour; a better class of car carpenters get from 18 to 19 cents, and first-class workmen will be able to make from 22 to 28 cents an hour at piece work. The rush is occasioned by the Moron’s efforts to get out box cars for grain service. Agent Beam will be pleased to furnish information to any person wanting to investigate the proffered employment.

We have been fortunate in securing White Star Flour, it is equal to any $1.50 flour sold anywhere, but for a limited time, to Introduce this famous flour, we are going to sell it at $1.38 a sack, every sack guaranteed to please or your money refunded.
