City, before going to their future

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John Horiskey and grew to

We are very thankful this Thanksgiving of 1915 for
the very extensive patronage you have given us the past *
eight months that we have been in business among you on t
our own hook. i
I have just done four times the business that I ex- y

WANTS TO SEE YOU
Most people fall for the Butter and '
Egg Game. Did you ever stop to 1
think ? How can a store pay you 30c 1
a pound for butter and dump it into a '
tub and sell it to the Creamery or Zim
merman for SOc ?
No, of course, your butter don’t go '
into the tub. Nobody’s butter goes
into the tub—to hear the stores tell it?
But it stands to reason somebody’s '
does. Who’s is it? Why don’t you '
take your butter right to Zimmerman, '
Yantzi or the Creamery—get your 1
cash—go to a Cash Store and buy for
cash—you easily save that dime and a )
few more Dimes besides?
Why don’t you bring in last month’s ‘
store bill and let me check it over for 1
you? .
Next to the man who protects your 1
name the man who protects your
pocket book is the best friend you
have got. Instead of slipping in a ‘
nickle here and a dime there I chop it ’
off. ,
The reason you pay two prices for (
your shoes is on account of the f
numbers of pairs given away free to (
people who abuse them.
There are a good many people who j
buy shoes and take care of them just |
the same as a good dress or a good
suit and the shoes last them from one
to two years. Others knock the same j
pair out in a week. I am going to sell (
shoes for what they are worth. If you
want a dress shoe to plow corn or mix |
cement, don’t expect them to give j
satisfaction. While the Company (
backs the Shoes I sell—I don’t. If (
you want the best shoe value for your
money come to me. You don’t have to
pay for the shoes the other fellow
abuses. The little I make on a pair of
shoes does not allow me to furnish
shoes to those who abuse them. I
want to sell shoes at a right price and
believe me, if you don’t want to buy
my shoes on these conditions they can
rot on the shelves and you can pay the
price of two pair every time you get
one. NOW, before you you get it into
your head that these shoes are going
to rot on the shelves—Come and see
the prices.
Cash does it—Cash did it—and Cash
is going to sell you your shoes.

The Great Blessing.
By Walt Mason: We have much
reason to be grateful ,since there’s no
warfare, grim and hateful, within this
smiling country’s borders; we slay not
at some marshall’s orders. In Europe
men aie now preparing for months of
freezing and despairing; they’ll spend
the w ter in the trenches, while foes,
with guns and monkey wrenches, make
daily efforts to dislodge them, and
they’ll be too blamed cold to dodge
them. Oh, when you’re seated in your
rocker, with trusty pipe and shilling
shocker, with peace and comfort all
around you, and not a peril to con
found you, think how your trans-At
lantic cousins are being shot up by the
lozens. There are no comforts in the
trenches; no rocking chairs or padded
Denches; there are no sprightly even
ng papers, tx> tell the latest football
:apers. The men must stand in mud
iy water, and wield the musket and
the swatter, and shiver in the biting
blizzard, which freezes them, from
nose to gizzard. Oh, think of that
while you are rocking before the fire,
and blithely talking of White House
brides and income taxes—think of the
soards and battle-axes!
Distress in the Stomach.
There are many people who have a
distress in the stomach after meals.
It is due to indigestion and easily >

“For some time I was troubled with *
headache and distress in my stomach
after eating, also with constipation
About six months ago I began taking
Chamberlain’s Tablets. They regula
ted the action of my bowels and the
headache and other annoyances ceased
in a short time.” Obtainable every
