Sioux City wholesalers have adopted

may be brought to the point of doing
likewise , which will undoubtedly be as

1 plan of selling big and little fruit by the

and sometimes the customer grasping
tne big end of the bargain.

jf t
each property in the village to m&ke

towns and cities might follow the ex
ample set by Wiuside.
Other cities and towns are urging the
cultivation of vacant lots , arguing that
growing crops of some kind would
have a marked advantage in appearance

and the person wanting n garden spot
of that kind must be on the ground
early or the space will bo appropriated.
It is a fine thing for the appearance of
city and advantageous to .tho people
doing the cultivating.
' The lecture of Tank Keo ( Gen. G. W
i'V

regarding people , customs , religious
and other peculiarities of the country.

dened with two names , one specifying

The Epworth league of the M. E.
church gnvo an enjoyable nodal last
evening at the homo of Mr. and Mrs.

pay as their fee n sum of money iu cents
equal to twice the number of the * shoo
they wear. It seemed to offer n double

the pleasure of disclosing the size of
shoo worn nud a small admission foe.
Refreshments of cake and frappe wore
served , and a literary and musical pro
gram wns rendered.

pauy then proceeded in a body to the
parsonage to notify the pastor of their
action. The pastor said ho would give
the matter his consideration and would
announce his decision later.
A crowded house is more than likely
to witness the now comedy success , "A
Hoosier Daisy" at the Auditorium Sat
urday evening. The play is out of the
beaten path and tells the story of an
awkward , gawky , half grown girl in a
little Indiana town , who has beenjtakeu
from the poor house by n prominent
lady church member so the child might
get n proper "home trulnln' . " Wo see
this Hoosier Daisy in all phases of her
life , the little country waif with the
poor house slang , her first inspiration
of love at sight of the young minister ,
her goodness of heart in saving the
tramp from arrest. See and hear her
quaint songs and dances , her awaken
ing to the homely spectacle she presents ,
her demand for long dresses , and her
final return from boarding' ' school , the
exquisitely gowned young lady who puts
her enemies to confusion. It is charac
ter entirely new , distinctly unique and
original to the stage. Around this char
acter the author has woven a play that
abounds in hearts interest as well as
comedy , introducing such types of char
acter as one finds in little Indiana towns
making a good , pure comedy that will
live forever. Seats on sale at Leonard's.
