Sell for CASH ONLY and
STOP DELIVERY

hope to continue. I will at all times be
glad to serve you with the best of meats
for CASH.

CASH ONLY
Beginning the first of June will operate our
meat market on a
STRICTLY CASH BASIS
No goods will be charged to anybody. This
action is made necessary on account of the
high price of meats, the advance in the cost
of labor and other operating coSfs over which
we have no control.
By adopting the cash system we effedt a con
siderable saving which we pass on to our cus
tomers in increased efficiency and service.
We do not wish to work a hardship on any
one, but conditions are so unsettled, labor so
scarce and hard to get that we are forced to
take this course if we are to stay in business.
We appreciate the past patronage of all our
friends and customers, and will strive to mer
it a continuance of same.

Beauty of tone color and artictic
interpretation were the pedomrinant
notes in the recital given on Tuesday
evening by the piano pupils of Miss
Viola Slaughter. This was the last of
a series of three recitals given by
these pupils. These programmes here
shows that Jackson has in her midst
some very exceptional talent, both

as among the tiny tots. The progress
of these students is an interesting

to have the opportunity of witching
their development through thorough,
systematic training.

To be possessed of a head of hea
vy, beautiful hair; soft, lustrou,s fluf
fy, wavy and free from dandruff is
merely a matter of using a little Dan
derine.
It is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just
get a small bottle of Knwlton’s Dan
derine now for a few cents —all drug
stores recommend it—apply a little
as directed and within ten minutes
there will be an appearance of abun
dance, freshness, fluffiness and an in
comparable gloss an dlustre, and try
as you will you cannot find a trace of
dandruff or falling hair; but your
real surprise will be after two weeks’
use, when you will see new hair —fine
and downy at first—yes—but really
new hair—sprouting out all over
your scalp—Danderine is, we believe,
the only sure hair grower, destroyer
of dandruff and cure for itchy scalp
and it meveT fails to stpp falling hair
at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
a cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
—taking one small strand at a time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just a few moments—a
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this. advt.
