The sensitive nerve of man is his poaket-Book. Ton may have his con Menee. He may owe yon a bill and feel under great obligations to you, but the nrst question he mil ask when shown goods: "What is it worth?" and "can't you sell it cheaper?" We have a treatment, if taken in time, which will give immediate relief. It's our Rock Bottom Knock Out Prices-One Price to all. This is the age of progression, and only a question of time until the old-time merchants will be trampled under the cruel hoofs of King Credit. Just tell Smith if he says anything that you are going to give TilS 23I"ULTo a chance this season. If he gets huffy it will show that his friendship extends only to your sensitive nerve. That being the case there won't be much loss. We are going to push business for all it's worth. We have the goods and prices to do it with. Yours for One Price, i HE HUB, W. T.

The pupils of the school grade which Ltllie had at tended during the past year were present in a body. The organ was decorated with a bank of roses.pre- sented by the members of the schooL The casket was pure white and was covered with white flow ers. The services were beautiful and impressive. After prayer by .Rev. Verner the choir sang '-Asleep in Jesus. This was followed by a readingof the scripture appropriate for the burial of a child. The choir then sang "There is a reaper whose name is death," Sp.ngof Salomon txzl lMy be loved is gone down into his garden to gather lilltes" was the -text chosen by Mr. Verner. and a most impressive and earnest address was made by him. In his remarks he called speical attention to the significance of the Iilly as an em blem of purity. He spoke, too. of the delicate tenderness of the Iilly and its tendency to fade; ap plying this to the unfolding of the young life in its development in the home and in its; heing subject to temptations. He showed, also, haw this spotless purity of the Iilly may be regained through tatth in the promises of God in His son Christ Jesus. The closing words of the sermon were exceedingly pa thetic and beautiful. Scarcely anv one was able to keep back the tears. Four young men from the high school acted as pall bearers, and the mortal remains of the loved child was followed to the grave bv a long procession of carriages. The S trickier iSTdse.

An impassioned appeal is made through the columns of the press to secure assistance of a substantial character from the towns alreadv established between O'Neill and Sioux City, 'and the statement is vouchsafed that if this modest re quest is complied with at once, it will relieve Mr. Lean's '-present perplexities and embarrassments and hasten the completion of this great work of civilization.
