YOU never saw more exquisite
cabinets.
The vcrld has never produced any
more exquisite cabinets.
' These cabinets are descended
out of the Golden Age of Furniture.
This was the age when Europe
built its most luxurious palaces,
created its greatest works of art,
developed its finest types of crafts
manship. Mr. Ediscn's designers went
back to the furniture masterpieces
of this period. They adapted 17
of them for the modern American
home. They made every Edison
Cabinet a period cabinet, even the
least expensive.
You must see these cabinets.
Only then will you appreciate what
wonderful richness and atmos
phere one will add to your home.

In 1914, as you can seer-"I
tain through practically
any investment banker,
the Edison Laboratories
were selling phonographs
on a narrower margin of
profit than the other man
ufacturers. Since 1914, the
price of the New Edison
has advanced less than 15
and a portion of this is
war tax. "Edison stood the
gaff" to keep his favorite
invention within the reach
of everyone.

Lieurance's Little Symphony, pat
terned after the Metropolitan Sym
phony orchestras of the cities, and
organized by Thurlow Lieurance, is
to appear here next Tuesday night,
December 14th, as one of the star
numbers of the local Lyceum course.. '
Lieurance's Little Symphony is an
all-string combination which plays
sketches from a representative num
ber of symphonies. It was especial
ly organized by Mr. Lieurance to
meet the demand for good music
rather than trash. The noted com
poser believed that nothing short of
the best would eatlsfy the craving for
real music in America, and this is
the reason for the Little Symphony.
It is an organization with a pur
pose a company with a musical
ideal.
The strong combinations consist of
four violins, two cellos, and a pian
ist. It is under the personal direc
tion of Mr. Harold Lewis in the
absence of Mr. Lieurance, who does
not appear with his organization.
Throughout the extensive program,
as published in yesterday's Journal,
Mr. Lieurance has arranged the
music for several different combina
tions. The varied program results
in one of unusual charm.
The 'entertainment will begin at
8:15 Tuesday night at the High
school auditorium. . To those not
holding season tickets, the price of
admission to adults is $1, while stu
dents will be admitted for 50 cents.
Be on hand promptly as there will
be no delay in starting.
Mrs. Mary Metzger and daughter,
Miss Patty, came in this morning
from their home near Cedar Creek
and spent the day here visiting with
friends.

fused by the board and it was decid
ed not to vacate th road that had
been asked to have abandoned for
the now road desired by a number
of the residents there.
The application of SheriiT C. H.
Quinton for a matron for the county
jail was also taken up and decided
adversely by the board.
In regard to the petition of R. ('.
Pollard and others for a mad in sec
tion 24, township 10, rangf; 12, the
commissioners decided that there
would b nothing doing in this road
at this' time at least. The board
filled the- vacancy in the oue or jus
tice of the peace in Center precinct

IS VERY SICK
Adrain Christ of this city has been
confine to his home for the past few
days as a very sick man. suffering
from an attack of pneumonia, and
his condition seems quite serious and
has caused his family and physician
more or less worry. He was show
ing some improvement last evening,
but very slight as the malady has
not reached its height atd it will be
impossible to forecast the outcome
of his case for several days yet.
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CHANCE
To secure some of the bargains
that are to be found at the Fanger
store in the great sacrifice sale of
ladies ready to wear tailored gar
ments. This is one of the oppor
tunities that the careful shopper
prices at which Mr. Fanger is offer
ing them makes it necessary that the
shopper get on the job early if they
secure the pick of the large stock.
The prices are the lowest for many
months in the great sacrifice sale.
Look them over.
