: ' , r , , - . a. . < Stella , Nebraska has won for
" . . ; , . . . . itself thc reputation of being one
" of the biggest small towns on thc
I map. It lies it the midst of a
; fertile country , surrounded on aU
sides by well kept farms owned by
a class of the hest people on earth.
\Vhcn.thcse farmcrs have reaped
their harvest or fatted their steers
they haul thc product of their
labor to Stella and top the mar-
ket. Thcn they : : , .in v , ( .l. . , Jail'
share of thc proceeds in all of the
necessaries , and many of the lux-
uries of life so temptingly ] dis-
played in the stores of Stella's
hustlirng and progressive mcr-
chants. 'l'his all goes toward
making Stella a good ( town. \Ve
have never seen a town of this
size that presented so ) leasing
an appearan ' .Clue houses arc
all neatly painted ; thc lawns are
well kept ; thc streets arc wide and
bordered with trees and there arc
some business and public huild-
ings that would be pointed to
with pride by the people of sonic
much larger towns that we know
of. There arc in Stella ( at least
three stocks of general merchan-
c1ise that would invoice from
$7,000 to 810,000 which wc subunit -
unit is a pretty good showing.
All other lines of business arc
equally well rcprcscn tCl1. A few
years ago Stella cxperic\1c \ d a
very disastrous fire , but new brick
buildings have taken thc place of
thc old frame structures and you
would hardly rcalire that there
had ever been a fire there. 'rhc
people are very hospitable and
always really . to . extend , " , the glad
hand to the deserving stranger
who chanccs'ro stray within their
g'ates. There is one suggestion
that we would like : to make , how-
ever and that is that more of thc
merchants ' display signs in front
of their places of busincss. 'rhc
other day wc had occasion to interview -
tcrvicw a certain merchant and
were compelled to' make inquiry
in ; six stores Before \vc could lo-
cate him. And besides whcn a
stranger sees a nice store , with
attractive display , windows hc
likes to know whose store it is

seq ucnccs. For sale by A. G.
