The man or woman who wears a
diamond also wears an air of pros
perity that is far reaching in its in
fluence. These are commercial times, and to
BE successful you must LOOK it.
People are always judged at first by
their appearance.
As an investment the diamond is in a
class by itself, because, outside of its
intrinsic value, it has the added value
as an adornment. w
When you are ready to buy a dia
mond, at whatever price, there are
plenty of reasons why you should
come here.

building occupied by the Chief olllce

Of nil tlio PmUes biotheis, William,
appaiently tho most feeble, lived to
the most advanced am1, and he alone

Mr. Ptiikcs 'ins a niilhc of England
and emigrated to tliis country homo
time in the iifties. Ho bcived dining
the civil war as a union -soldier, and
was a member of the 0. A. It. post of
this city.
Ho was made u mnsoiiby the uiusonio
lodge of this eity something over thirty
years ago, and was always a villous and
faithful member of that fiatoinity.
He united with the M. E. church of
thib city, but his reHlou 'never ex
pressed itself in uiiuliurit'iblo consider
ation or speech of his fellows.
Uu was first of tail a fellow man
among his fo'.lowulen.
Kindly, sympathetic, tender hearted,
ho could not beur to gvu or witness
puln or suffering. Good natured, fond
of innocent association with .ds neigh
bors, ho always had a kind word for
everybody, and everybody had n kind
word for him.
Ho was married in 18.15 to the woman
who now survives him as widow. Near
ly sixty years they lived together in
modest, affectionate companionship,
helping each other to bear life's buid
ens, and enjoying their full moasuie
of life's delights. Tho sympathy of
the Chief goes out to tho old lady who
is now left to pursue the rest of earth's
pilgriinago alone.
Mr. 1'arlcos lacked a few months of
beiug eighty three years of ago at the
tijnc of his death, which occurred Fri
day night, having beeu born Juno 2Uh,
11332. Ho was buried by tho Masons
from theM. E. church, the Itev. George
Hummel preaching the funeral sermon.
He appropriately solooted for his text
tho passage "And Enqoh walked with
God, and was not, for God took him".
L. U. niackledge read the Masonic

Business Nen Hold
Their Monthly Banquet
The business men hold their monthly
dinner tit the Royal tig.iln hist Tuesday,
and while the attendance was not us
huge asv it litis been fit times, the
filendly feeling was very notlcuble.
No set program was picpared and
the "after dinner toasts" took on tho
character of a round tablo discussion
with everyone free to discuss anything
ho chose. The utmost good fooling
prevailed and the mon all cujoyed
themselves.
Mayor Duincrell reported that as yet
he was not meeting with a very gener
ous response from people living out
side of tho city. This ho thought was
largely due to the fact that many
were afraid that what they gave would
not reach the Uolglums. Several sug
gestions were given to tho committee
and it may bo that this county will
yet be able to send the car of wheat.
The new member of tho Red Cloud
buslnoss circlo was glveu a hearty
welcome and the meeting was dig
mluod on time,
