AN sged man delivered a touching remembrancer at a neighbor's funeral by observing pathetically that the departed "wouldn't rare and cuss about taxes any more."

Own of the saddest sights in this season of the year is a young man who has waited outside the church of an evening until he is chilled through, only to see his girl walk off with some rascal who has been inside all the time toasting his sinfol shins at the stove. But still sadder sight is to see people throw away their money on cheap and worthleaa clothing, when good and serviceable wear, can be bad at the lowest living prices of such an honest dealer as W. H. Bannister.

THE cold weather of this winter has been extraordinary, but the people who bought tbeir stoves of R. L. Ball have little trouble in keeping warm, especially if they have a good coal pile to draw from. He has a fine variety this winter to select from, both for heating and cooking, coal and wood, and his large sales are evidence that low prioes aro the rule. His assortment of tinware is very full and complete, embracing every article needed about the household.
THAT'S so, WHAT?—That Xoyes Andrews keeps a first clsss stock of boots and shoes. He has ss great variety as any other dealer in town. He aims to sell his goods st as low prices as any honest man can and live, and be aaks his full share of the trade and as much more ss he can get. He alms to treat all his customers well—so well that
