WE ARE STILL IN THE RING
On the Ground Floor With the Right Goods at Riglft Prices.
Why we can make the right prices. First. Because we are doing practically our own work. Doing
business in our own building. Do our own hauling. We are not doing business on borrowed capital,
therefore we do not have to pay any interest. Having had many years experience in the mercantile
business, and believing that we can take the spot cash and buy our goods as low as the lowest, we
propose to give our customers the benefit of all this advantage.
Our stock is almost entirely new. If you remember we run our stock down very low before mov
ing. We have a big line entirely new
Up=to=Date Millinery Goods.
We have as trimmers Miss Leila Medlock, and Mrs. L. L. Castleberry, each having had plenty of ex
pectance, and they will take great pleasure in fitting the ladies up in a nice Hat. We will guarantee
the style to be right up to the minute. They will trim your hat just like you want it.
We have just received a big lot
Men’s and Boys’ Clothing
in all the new shades and colors. So call and see our line. Our clerks will gladly show you through.
We have a nice line Dress Ooods, Woolen Goods, White Goods,
Ladies’ Ready Made Shirts and Waists.
Don’t forget to call on us at our new store, being at the Davenport & Merritt old stand. We come
nearer keeping everything you want than any other store in town.
It is our honest intention to make the price right at all times, and to everybody as low as any one
else, but in event we fail to do so we will thank you kindly to call our attention to our wrong and then
we will make the price lower than the other fellow, no matter what the price may be,
Quality, combined with low prices and fair treatment, are the principal inducements we have to
offer. We have anew line of Shoes, right up-to-date in all the new shapes
Selz Schwab Shoe Cos.
We guarantee every pair to be solid leather and to give satisfaction. Also have a line of W. L. Doug
las and J. K. Orr well known brands. We are position to give you nearer what you want than ever

All the world over Easter is
a season of great rejoicing, as
everything begins to cast off
the dinginess of winter and na
ture herself exhibits the spirit
of resurrection. Palestine, the
spot where the resurrection
we commemorate took place,
is supremely emblematic of
the season, because there the
spring suddenly bursts forth
and all the verdue and flowers
spring up as though a magic
wand had been waved over
the land, for the excessive
dreariness of winter is broken
in the orient when it is still
still winter in western lands.
It is difficult to ascertain the
precise origin of the graceful
custom so universal in France
and Germany and more or less
prevalent throughout the
world of offering eggs at the
festival of Easter. The Per
sians give each other eggs at
the new year, the Russians
and the Finns at the festival;
of Easter. Among the Ro
mans the year opened at East
er, as it did among the Capets.
Mutual presents were bestow
ed ; and as the egg is the em
blem of the beginning of all
things, nothing better could be
found as an offering.
