To Dig
Which expression do you use? But whether you are an expert and say "drill," or an amateur and say "dig," you want Groceries and you want them of the nicest quality and lowest price.
Joe Miller
is probably, therefore, the man you are looking for. He is at 515 Main street. All the early Vegetables and Fruits, nice Poultry, fresh Batter.
J. N. Hickman's expose of the disreputable business methods of some agents in disposing of their sewing machines, has opened the eyes of the publio to the «&0tt8ity of the unfairness practiced toward the women who make overalls. Compelling the use of a certain machine because a commission of $15 is received Is revolting to the American idea of fairness and justice. Buy the White.
