Humpty Dumpty
In all his jjlory was never clad like one of these. So much
for a freak suit, and now how about a new spring suit,
right in style, handsome cloth, peifect tit—just what you
want for business or dress? This about it—prices will
range from $7.50 to $.20, and they are equal to tailor
made. If a nice, dressy, cool spring suit is what you
want we advise you to call soon and have a larger selec-
tion, for such goods, going at the prices we are selling,
soon reduce the stock.

A Strictly Business Session Meld
Yesterday.
The city fathers met at the usual
hour. Every alderman was in his
seat fully impressed with the re-
sponsibilities of the occasion.
The mayor and marshal, the
faithful secretary,the collector, the
auditor and sanitary officer were
all on hand.
The mayor's annual report was
read aad received.
The auditor's report was read
an (f received.
M Tungate asked permission to
erect an iron building on Elm
street.
B. I'. Oarvey chairman of the
street committee submitted the re-
port of the street commissioner
which was pronounced by all as
the best and most complete ever
made to the council. *
Mr. Oarvey stated that he would
have such a report each month.
This report shows tifty-four days
work (lone during the month by
prisoners, and other work to
amount of $25. One prisoner who
was parol led on his honor to at-
tend the burial of his sister, failed
to return.
Morgan, chairman of finance
committee stated that the mayor's
report covered the financial ques-
tion, but he suggested that the
crematory bonds l>e purchased out
of the sinking fund of some other
fund.
Smith moved that Mr. Morgan
be instructed to buy the crematory
bonds. Carried unaminously.
The secretary reported £12 re-
ceived for building permits.
Mr. Morgan suggested that
when anything is purchased an
order of the mayor lie obtained.
Th<» bill for the board of equali-
zation. $00 for each member and
*»>0 for the secretary, was pre-
sented. and on motion of Smith
amended allowing £40 for secre-
tary and then allowed.

Are You
Superstitious?
Some folks who believe in signs
will tell you that it is unlucky to
fall overboard on Monday or to
take hold of a buzz-saw in motion
on Tuesday, or to fall down stairs
with a coal scuttle on Wednesday,
or to shoot yourself on Thursday,
or to sit down to dinner with
twelve others, and only food
enough for ten, on Friday, and
they all agree that it is very un-
lucky to not ask you best girl on
Saturday or any other day to have
some "Delicious Frapine'' at the
"Frozen Department."
