Wedding Bells.
A few days ago wo advertised, referring to our friends
who did not believe in "No Wedding Bells for Me," and to our
surprise there were more diamonds sold than we had any idea
would be called for.
Now all these happy ones will soon bo united, and at
homo you are already asking, "What shall we give So-and-So
for their wedding gift?"
This question is asked so often each year, and when it
comes down to decision, your jeweler is usually the one to re
ceive a visit.
Now some jewelers do not think of looking out for this, but
will let you select from what they have in stock possibly for
years and when you send your gift it is an old style piece.
We have ench year given this occasion earnest study, and
are prepared to satisfy the most fastidious taste.
All that we ask of you is to favor us with a call and feast
your eyes on the beautiful assortment of new
Solid Silver, Silver-plated Ware, Hand Painted
China, Cut Glass, Clocks, Etc.

Destroyed by Fire.
The Inman home in the Plattview
sub-division was burned to the ground
Tuesday together with the greater part
of the furniture.
The alarm was sounded shortly bo
foro midnight and waa promptly re
sponded to by the Are companies but
the flames by that, time had gained
such headway that little or nothing
could be done and only a few articles of
furniture could bo removed from the
burning building, a piano being among
the' pieces burned.
Early in the evening a blaze originated
n the houso in some unknown manner
but the blaze it was supposed was put
out by members of the family. On
account of the odor of varnish in the
house from work which was being done
the family retired for the night in a
small movable houso which stood apart
from tho new house and during the
night the fire again sprung up and be
fore they became aware of it the house
was completely enveloped in flames.
The home had only recently been built
and was covered by insurance.
Majority Favor County Option
The majority given Aldrichin Lincoln
county about 600 can be taken as
evidence that a majority of the people
of the county are in favor of county op
tion, and that if the proposition is sub
mitted to the voters it will carry. There
ia little question but that thelissua in
tho state was county option republic-
tans wno are opposed to county option
voted for Dahlman and democrats who
favor the measure voted for Aldrich.
