SPECIAL SALE
FOR
RUGS AND CURTAINS
Commencing Monday, April 20,
and continuing for one week only,
we will hold a special sale of
Rugs and Curtains in our Annex.
The rugs offered consist of a gen
eral assortment of Smyrna, vel
vet, Axminister and pro-Brussels

at a great reduction in price.
The curtains consist of Notting
ham, ruffled net, Irish point and
other popular styles of curtains,
and the prices at which these
goods will be sold are from one-
fourth to one-half off the regular
selling price. These prices for
one week only. Nothing will be

this sale.
ABOUT CORSETS
You of course want the most
comfortable fitting and stylish
corset possible. Our method of
buying corsets enables us to offer
the very latest style corset made.
We return at once all old-style
corsets to the manufacturer and
get new styles for them. This
keeps our stock fresh all the time
—no rotten rubber in the hose-
supporters, no hard styles to
work. You realize the advantage
at once, don’t you? Besides this,
in selling the “W. B.” corset we
give you the best there is in cor
sets. Let us have one trial from
you, if you have not worn “W.
B. ” corsets. You will never
wear any other make afterwards.
iV'
HOSIERY
The proper weights, the proper
finish, the correct colors in all
sorts of hosiery for men, women
and children. Our stock is kept
complete by constant reorders.
We sell “Cadet” stockings for
children, “Interwoven” socks for
men, “Onyx” and “Gordon Dye”
hose for women. All the best
makes in hosiery in the styles
popular this season.

A Neighbor’s Complaint.
Mr. Editor, let rne ask you a ques
tion ; Should $5 worth of chickens be
permitted to destroy $50 or $75 worth
of a neighbor’s crops? If not, what
method of reprisal may the injured
neighbor resort to without disturbing
the peace and harmony of his neighbor
hood? Is it just? Is it law? Is it incon
sistent with Christian conduct to be
resentful under such circumstances? I
am a sufferer from the depredations of
my neighbors’ chickens, and hardly
know what to do about it. Farmer.
Good Soda is deservedly the
most popular of beverages, for
nothing is there refreshing, more
cooling or inexpensive.
Good Soda is not so common as
it should be, and the reason is
not difficult to learn.
Good Soda means knowledge,
application to details, and some
considerable trouble.
Good Soda depends on many
things—small details which are
often overlooked.
Good Soda depends on good ma
terials, (the best,) liberal use of
best fruits anti flavorings, and a
willingness to expend both the
proper amount of labor and ener
gy to make the drink “just right.”
Good Soda depends on cleanli
ness clean apparatus, clean
sinks, clean towels, clean glasses
the kind which insists on the
hidden parts being kept clean as
well as the parts in sight.
Good Soda depends on knowl
edge of what constitutes a good
drink, and a willingness to fur
nish it, no matter how short the
profit.
Lastly, we think good Soda
depends on proper service, and
facilities for enjoying it. All of
the necessary conditions are met
in our store.
Make our store your drinking
place.
