We are expansionists of the veriest type—business expansionists-
A Few Figures
Figures won’t lie, albeit as the old saw goes, liars will figure, and
liars will interpret. In our press roon\ we have a daily output
of 83,333i impressions; multiply this by 6, the number of
working days in a week, and you* have the sum of 500,000,
and then by 26, the number ©f working days in a month, and you
have the sum of 2,166,666f. The figures are based on the
very lowest estimate, and the result is not by any means what
we really can do. The truth of the matter is we will print
everything that our patrons want printed, no matter how many
impressions it requires.
You Can’t Do Better
if you have printing done, than to give it to us. This fact is
confirmed by our present customers. Advertising, in some form,*
is a recognized necessity for every business enterprise that
appeals to the public for support. If you do a business that is
supported and backed up by the people, these people must be
appealed to, they must be told, and printers’ 'ink is the only suc
cessful means of imparting to them this knowledge. If your
competitor advertises and has printed matter to circulate among
the masses, and you do not, it is a question of only a very short
time until you are nailed to the wall, the sheriff has you, and the
list of your creditors (how our heart goes out to them) can be
read in the next morning’s paper. *
Remember
We print everything from visiting cards to the finest class of
book work. Advertising matter of all descriptions printed
and bound in the best of style. We wholesale all kinds of

The Tribulations of Reedy.
Beedy was one of those boys
who, in his juvenile days and ear
ly youth, pulled the bell-cord over
old -Beck’s back, but was hot des
tined to continue in that avoca
tion. He had asperations—an in
tense desire .to go to town and
clerk in one of the large stores.-
He eventually secured the cov
eted position, and rose rapidly, as
country hoys usually do—not,
however, forgetting that back in
the country a rosy cheeked farm
er’s daughter had a warm place in
her heart for him, notwithstanding
the fact, too, that Reedy now
habitually wore a “ biled shirt,”
collar, cuffs and other appendages
that clerks consider indispensable.
Saturday was a busy day; (which
was indirectly the cause of Reedy’s
tribulations) the store had been
thronged during the day with
rural customers, and as night ap
proached the country folk be
gan to disappear with their
3undles*and the town people came
flocking in to make purchases.
Reedy was “ fattigued ” and
very weary when the last custo
mer wended his way slowly out,
stopping here and there to ex
amine holts of goods on the coun
ter—greatly to Reedy’s impati
ence. At lasc he emerged into
the darkness; the doors were
quickly closed and Reedy eagerly
sought his couch. He did not
rise with the birds, but slumbered
until the, morning was no longer
young.
He awoke with a start and
arose and hurried away to break
fast. Then he remembered that
he had an engagement with his
best girl. It was Sunday and the
barbershops were closed. His
face was covered with stubby
whiskers. He wanted a shave
and wanted it bad. He ran
hither and thither to procure a
razor, but his efforts were futile.
He thought of the meat market,
where keen-edged knives are kept
galore. 'Hitherward he flew as if
pursued by the sheriff: His anx
ious eyes descried an immense
knife; he seized it with eager
hands, - and darted for soap and
water. He quickly covered his
face with the snowy lather, and
slowly and painfully drew the
huge knife down the right cheek.
But stay! His visage assumed
all the horrible contorsons of the
wicked in perdition; his eyes stood
out like fried eggs in a hollow log
-and threatened to make a flying
visit to either cheek. There he
stood in his agony, when a friend
came rushing through the open
door, flourishing a razor high
above his bead, crying :
“Stop, man; a razor!”
Then Reedy replied, in an ago
nized voice: “ A razor; my king
dom for a razor!”
The knife was discarded for the
razor, which, under the skillful
manipulation of the friend, 'Reedy
was soon himself again.
But hiis troubles were not at an
end for the day. He disappeared
around the corner, and after a
brief absence hove in view leading
a' wicked looking mule—the origi *
nal Texas mule—down the princi
pal street. The mule was step
ping high* likewise the young
man, whose face was wreathed in
smiles. Somebody yelled “Woa!”
Other voices ehimmed in, “Where
did you get that an-i-mule ?”
“ That’s not the way to the bone-
yard.”
Although the mule was quite
corpulent, and there seemed no
necessity of the facetiflus person
firing the last philippic, yet these
interrogations evidently agitated
our friend Reedy. However, he
had a purpose to put into execu
tion. He stopped and hastened
into an adjacent shop, and im
mediately appeared with a set of
buggy harness. He leaped to the
side of the mule, but in his great
agitation put the subsequent end
of the harness over the animal’s
neck. He pulled and jerked and
tugged as one possessed. The
perspiration , poured down his
cheeks like rain, his collar flew up
in the vicinity of his hat; some
thing snapped—perhaps his su
spenders—and the crowd grew
denser. He looked about appeal
ingly. Sympathetic by-standers
came to his rescue. The harness
was adjusted, and his muleship
hooked to the buggy in double-
quick time. He climbed to the
seat, smiles again chasing each
other up and down his physiog
nomy, he gathered up the ribbons
and with a majestic wave of the
hand and a vicious slash at the
mule’s back with his blaeksnake,
soon disappeared in an immense
cloud of dust. • R. S. M.

What Shall We Do.
A serious and dangerous disease
prevails in this country, dangerous
because so deceptive. It comes
on so slowly yet surely that it is
often firmly seated before we are
aware of it.
The name of this disease which
may be divided into three distinct
stages is, first, kidney trouble, in
dicated by pain in the back, rheu
matism, lumbago, frequent desire
to urinate, often with a burning
sensation, the flow of urine being
copious or scant with strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this
reaches the second stage, or blad
der trouble, with heavy pain in
the abdomen low down between
the naval and the water passage,
increasing desire to urinate, with
scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to
draw it with instruments. If uric
acid or gravel has formed it will
prove dangerous if neglected.
The third stage is bright’s dis
ease.
There is comfort in knowing
that Dr. Kilmer, the great kiclney
and bladder specialist, has discov
ered a remedy famous for its mar
velous cures of the most distress
ing cases and known as Dr. Kil
mer’s Swamp-Root.
It is sold by all druggists.
As a proof of the wonderful vir
tues of this great discovery,
Swamp-Root, a sample bottle and
book of valuable-information will
be sent absolutely free by mail on
application to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton,-N. Y. When writ
ing kindly mention that you read

As they build their summer home,
Blades of grass and bads are springing,
O’er the mead the cattle roam.
In the spring your blood is freighted
With the germs that cause disease,
Humors, boils, are designated
Signals warning you of these.
In the spring that tired feeling
Makes yon every duty shirk—
Makes you feel like begging, stealing,
Bather than engage in work.
But there’s something known that will a
