SPRING STYLES SUMMER.
ooao
Dame fashion has displayed a wonderful amount of
good common sense in dictating the styles of clothing
for men and boys this season. The Suits and Over
coats are not too long nor too short. The Trousers are
neither too wide nor too narrow.
Our present stock displays the best taste, the high
est skill, and the most reliable materials that we have
ever shown.
THERE'S A LOOK of the right sort about it A
FEEL of the right kind A FIT, STYLE and WORK
MANSHIP of the highest perfection. In fact the Cloth
ing has genuine merit.
Every Suit or Overcoat that leaves our store is
ready to do its full duty, and do it honestly.
You are sure to receive more value, style and ser
vice for your expenditure with us than is usually given
for a third more money.
The Say-so of this ad. is the Do-so of the store.
We might talk for hours aboutthe quality and price,
but nothing we could say is half so convincing as the
garments, which speak for themselves.
A handsome gold watch given away free to all our
customers. Get particulars at our store.

Waterman Bl'k, Plattsmouth.
I fold my arms, I will not strive and strive
To find at evening time but empty hands,
And not one grain of gold In all the sands,
That with much pain and labor I contrive
To gather from the floods. No man may thrive
By effort, It is only he who stands
In favor with the gods; by their commands
He wins or loses, lllui they lead or drive.
Then why should I seek? They love me not.
They look on me with dark, unfriendly eye,
They throw some adverse charm about the spot
Whenever treasure-seeking I draw nigh, I
And since for my destruction ill they plot ; j
I'll strive no more, 'twere vain, 'twere vnin to j
try. Isabel KicnEV. i
