There doesn't seem much use for a mer
chant to tell you about warm clothes
when we have California beat for weather!
But we can tell you of the best asset your
home could possibly have, and that is a
piano. We have two high grade 1 pianos
at our store which were placed with us
on consignment. As the time is up, we
are going to give somebody the best bar
gain ever offered in an instrument. Don't
put off buying, but start your boy or girl
in time with their music. Murray has one
of the best teachers in the state, and we
have the best piano at a reasonable price
and fully guaranteed.

worker, a fine trentleman. and
the people here all highly respect
him and place great confidence in
him. He is receiving new ap
plications every day.
The workmen for the Struth-
er s Lighting company of Omaha
are here this week installing the
plant in the Berger Hotel. This,
we believe, finishes up the hotel
improvements, with the exception
of the sidewalk in front, which
will be put in as soon as the
ground settles. There is not an
other hotel in Nebraska in a town
the size of Murray that can boast
of a hotel with all modern and
up-to-date improvements.

school 'privileges for Vo'me time,
and he told the audience some
plain facts iii regard to its opera

not nearly so bad as represented,
they now would not give it up for
anything. lie advised the Murray
