If it lasts much longer, we will have roses in the open air at Christmas. The new Gulf is open, and with George Fields mi the office and a competent corpsjelsewhere, its success is assured. If you would see one of the hand somest windows in the state, look in at Levy’s dry goods house, the next time you pass that way.

Our town is full of boarding houses and yet, if our visitors should, by chance, and they sometimes do such a thing, look into the city paper to find their addresses, they would be disappointed.
