By glancing through the column* of your local paper you can tell at once who are the live business mer. Tbey have their ads. there and the more alive the business man the more alive his ad. It has long been an established fact that good advertising pay3 and that all progressive business men ad­vertise. The business men of a city or town owe something to the public. It is necessary for the interests of a town to keep r»p a live newspaper, one that will work for the building un of the town, and the aforesaid business men. Liberal patronage will do this.—Ex.

One of the leading topics of the past week has been the boat race to take place on Base Lake Tuesday afternoon, June 25th.

The boats used will be two clinkers, one the property of John Bross and pulled by Will Bross and^George Joyce; the other owned by E. Jedele, pulled by Pat Sloan and Bert Bullis. The merit of the boats is the disputed point, each owner claim­ing his boat superior to the other. The oarsmen mean business and the race will be very exciting.— Dexter Leader.

Last Friday Mr. J . R. Dunning was hauling some gravel to the Sprout cemetery, three miles west of this place, with a one-horse wagon. On his way he was obliged to cross the rail­road track, and just as the front part of the wagon had got across the wheels dropped into a hole, breaking the front axle, which threw Mr. Dunning to the ground but did not injure him very much, although he was unconscious for a time. The horse broke loose from the wagon but could not get away from the thills, in thi.s manner it ran nearly a mile with \\>r thills hit­ting its heels at every jump. When stopped it was pretty well bruised up. Such places in the highways should bo looked after.

Here is a timely suggestion from an exchange: "If our farmer readers who have horses in pastures fenced with barbed wire would plow a furrow or two around the pasture inside the fence, the danger would not be as great as without.

A Utnnce Over t h e Old Fi»ld or B l o o d and Carunffd.

The appropriation of '$,0,000 made by the Michigan legislature in IS»7 for the purpose of erecting mouurueuts on the battlefield of Gettysburg to mark the positions heid by Michigan troops, whose valor contributed BO much toward the triumph of the uinon army ou those historic d<y» of July 1, -' and 3, in the year ISttt.has been uioit sutisfacto rily expended by the commission having in charge the matter of purchase and location and on the 12th instant the work so well performed was formally delivered to the state.

In compliance wi 'h the request as ex­pressed in a resolution adopted ut a reunion of the surviving members of the Michigan cavalry brigade, which was held at Vioks-burg September 21, 1S87, the funds appor­tioned to the four regiments composing that command were used in the erection of a brigade monument. As the brigade fought as one command and upon the same field, being the extreme right of the union line of battlo on July 8, it appeared to the commissioners both appropriate and fitting to mark the Held by one monument instead of four.

This monument stands In the woods west of the whoatfield.. I t is 0¾ feet square and 10}^ feet in hight, cut from Hardwick granite, a stone susceptible of a tine polish. The die presents tho life-size figure of a soldier in the act of loading a musket.

One surface of the die presents two musket* crossed, cartridge box, canteen bayonet and belt, cut in has relief. The right and left sides present polished corps badges, and the regimental inscription is upon the rear surface.

Raymond,-who was almost to the top, seized a four by four joint that was stretcii-ed across tho top of the well, and Whitely caught hold of Raymond's knees. Tnoy Lung in this position from six o'clock until half past eight shouting aad calling for help until they were hoarse, l i u t no help came. They had given un all hope of being rescued, and had come to the conclusion that they would soon have to drop. Raymond's hold was slipping, and his knees were pinned closo together by Vv'hitely's arms. Every time they spoke or made tho slightest movement it would give motion to their bodies, and this mado it still harder to keep a hold.

At length when it seemed they could •hold on no longer, Whitely addressed Ray­mond;

"'Joe," ho said, "do you think you could get on top if I'd let f o r '

"Yea, tJob-,'' said Raymond. " I think I could/V

'•Well,1' said Whitely, ' 'hero goes then, Good-bye, Joe, and may God bless you." And with that he dropped to tho wround, his head struck a sharp rock and he was instantly killed, Raymond reached tho top, and when last heard of was in Erie Pa .

A Lucky Texan. Halletsvlile (Tex.) New Era, May 1").

The .people in this section have been speculating in Louisiana State Lottery tickets for some time, ana have received several good premiums and on one or two occasions large ones, but the town was struck dumb when it was found that ticket No. W,074, drawing the first capital'prize of $1300,000 iu the April drawing, was he'd partially by a party in Halletsville. It is often said that luck falls to' the unworthy, but interviewing Otto Von iiuseuburg, the happy possessor of one-twentieth part of the ticket, we find It has fallen in the right place. He is an industrious young mer­chant who has beea hero but a short time. his native home being Kound Top, Texas. The ¢13,( 00 received by him will be partial­ly used in his business; it establishes him on a firm fin^uciul basis. It has not turned his he.id, and he will u'so his new found wealth with sense and discretion for his own advancement and t i e furtherance of his interest iu the public welfare. Be has been investing in one ticket each mouth in tho Louifcian i State Lottery lor about two years, and he thinks the amount cxpende.l was well invested. The Louisiana State Lottery company is a thoroughly reliable institution, as was evidenced in this case. Mr. Kosenburg sent his ticket lor collec­tion to Ball, Hutchins & Co., of Galveston, and it was paid upon presentation without any di-.count.

A Substitute for GIa*s-The new translucent substance intended

as a substitutes for g l ^ s hau been satisfac­torily adopted In some of tbe public build-iugs in London, and various advantages are claimed for it, *mong thesa being such a degree of pliancy that it may be bent back­ward and forward like leather, and be sub­jected to very considerable tensile strain with impunity; it is ulso almost us translu­cent as grass and of a pleasing amber color, varyiug iu A hade from a very light golden to a pale brown.

The basis of the material is a web of fine irou wire, with warp and weft threads about one twelfth inch upart, this being enclosed, like a fly in amber, in a sheet of translucent varnish, of which the base Is Jinseed oil. There is no ream or gum in the varnish, and once having become dry it is capable of standing he.it and damp without undergoing any change, neither hardening nor becoming st.cky.

Briefly, the manufacture is accomplished by dipping the sheets edgewise into deep tanks of varnish bud then allowing the coating which they thus receive lo dry in a warm atmosphere. I t requires some whut more than a do/en of tnese dips to bring the sheets to the required degree of thickness, and when this has been accom­plished the material is stored for several weeks to thoroughly tet.

Washington Letter. Prom Oar Correapondent.

j WASHINGTON, JUNK 18, 1889.

Tbe heart of the true-blue Republi­can government clerk is heavy when he looks at the list of promotions in his bureau. To say that he is sad and astonished is to put it too mildly. Ue is hotter than Pennsylvania avenue's asphalt pavement on a July afternoon.

"The neutral shadowy people get all the preferment," said an old Treasury chief to me yesterday, a man who long ago reached the length of promotion and therefore ha^uo private jealousy in the matter. It was expected that Republican hold overs belonging to doubtful states who did not go home to vote last fall, would be dismissed by this administration, and they were liberally promised that fate. Now tho tables are turned, and the men who carried water on both shoulders are on top. To my positive knowledge, a Pension Bureau clerk recently pro­moted to |2,"000 per annum not only failed to go home to New York to vote last fall but discouraged others from going, teHiftg them their presence at the polls was nrot'exactly necessary and in the event of Democratic success would cans?their discharge. The nest morning after the election this same man wore a Harrison & Morton bad ere eix inches long.

/ A mighty dispute goes on in the local press over the question of the right of Sunday papain to exist, Ex­actly what is to be gained by the argu­ment, the disputants, it is safe to say, do not know, but their zeal is none tho less great. Incidently the inconsisten­cies of the local Sunday laws receive attention. .For instanco, one can buy soda water but not beer, cigars but not matches, milk or bread but not butter or sugar. The panorama may exhibit its painted wonders, but the theatre must close. Ice cream saloons doa lout the vanilla, but mint juleps are ta­booed. You can hire a team at the livery, but the public hacks must not stand at their regular places or an) where else, the hackman must keep from the better side of the avenue as if he were an unclean animal. If ho even mutely implores you to hire hi-vehicle as he drifts slowly by you, he is liable to arrest. On Monday morn­ing ho and bio brother may drag you

Especially slow to scare, Washington has-yet been rather stirred up by the local floods, the water haying been higher during the recent inundation than it had ever been before, except in two or three February floods when tho ice was gorged. The danger ehietiy apprehended is from the choking up of the river with Hat improvements. Eight years ago, when the proposition to reclaim the Potomac ilats t/iok form in Congress, there were not wanting those who protested against tlie pUns adopted by tho army engineers. It U asserted that tho scheme of "filling up a tide river to make room for tho volume of great floods1' is not feasible. The opinion of chief Engineer Sever-son is quoted. He savs, in substance, "There is but one proper way; that is to reopen the Washington channel fully and so improve all south of it as not to diminish its capacity for carry­ing off the water of great floods. Any diminution of the conductive capacity of the channel must inevitably en­danger city property and the greater the contraction the greater tho dan­ger.1' The truth is thai it is about time to return to tbe good old fashioned respect for the powers of nature. The invontive race lacks modesty. We defy natures laws successfully may be hut hardly safely.

County and Vicinity News.

Gleaned from the papers of this County aud sMrroaiMfting country;

Frank Brock way of Howell, has re-ceived from U. S. a back pension of 11,200, and will get $12 per month.

Tbe teachers of Livingston county will be pleased to learn tbat tbe Super-intendent-of Public Instruction has a bill before tbe Legislature to change the date of tbe regular fall examin­ation, for all grades of certificates, from the first Thursday in August to the last Thursday in August. This ar­rangement will prove a great conven­ience to those who attend the Teach­er's Normal class at this place this summer. At the conclusion of the' class begins tbe institute Aug. 10, and the institute closing with the examin­ation will complete the entire prepar­ation for beginning the year's school work. Be on hand to b^gin class work July 8th.—Livingston Republican.

Tbe time so long waited for by the reading world has come when The History company would allow the in­comparable historical series of Hubert Howe Bancroft to be broken and sold in separate sets, and it marks a period in the history of literature. Thous­ands who have desired to possess some of the volumes, but did not care to buy them all can now be accommodated, greatly to their own benefit and the benefit of the country. The manner in which Mr. Bancroft accomplished his unique undertaking is generally known to our readers—bis in-gather­ing of material from the four quarters of the earth; his expenditure of tbe best thirty years of his life and over a million of money; the erection of a building specially for the accommo­dation and preservation of his price­less library; the writing of his history, etc., etc. Had not this been done this history of Alaska never could have been written. The country should be proud of the man who has done this, unaided and aione, and should patron­ize his works liberally, as well from motives of patriotism as on account of their merits. „It-isfa most fascinating study tpJollow this author in his labors. "The whole story," says tho British Quarterly Review, "Mr. Bancroft has told with much force and eloquence

and impartially.'1 The New York Nation declares that "especially good judgment has been shown in balancing conflicting authorities," while the Sac­ramento Record-Union says that "in gratifying tho desire to add to the treasure-house of the world's know­ledge, wo are indebted for records that will endure as long afi thin countryman

A Scrap of Paper Saves Uer Life. It was just an ordinary scrap of

wrapping paper, bat it saved her life. She was. in the laat stages of consump­tion, told by physicians that she was incurable and could live only a short time; she weighed less than, seventy pounds. On a piece of wrapping paper she read of Dr. King's 5 e w Dis­covery, and got a sample bottle; it helped her, she bought a large bottle, i t helped her more, bought another and grew better fast, continued its use and is now strong, healthy, rosy, plump, weighing 140 pounds.

WUhia ffe* f ast ten years associated <lairyU|pjfcKs been largely developed in

^ *U Uud older dairy regions, and has iu-l&^QfMk new ter r i tory where dairying l ^ p P k fcpeome an impor tan t industry. f JMjipAfoted dairying, of course, implies V Jfcupauuiacture in a single creamery

of the milk produced in a whole neigh­borhood. Many of those establish­ments handle large quantities of milk daily, but the majority, perhapi , are of about 10,00J poundj capacity, and oven then do not run ail th<s time. The larger the establishment, if it is run

tr t o ite capacity every day, and econom-'. f ^ f f r managed, the smaller the ex-

|Qp*e of handling a given quantity of ttttk. One hundred pounds is gener­ally taken as the unit in calculat ing tho running expensas. *A creamery or cheese factory handl ing 10,000 pound* per day will do so at an expense of about 3 cent* per unit, or under excep­tionally favorable conditions of 2 cents. But the actual 5xp0n.se is near 12 cents. This appears to be a low cost for the work done, and it is, inasmuch a s the same amount of work on the average dairy farm, costs from three to five times that sum.

But a small neighborhood or indi­vidual creamery may be operated at an expense nearly as low as the larg­e r one. For instance, in a neighbor­hood or on a farm where the milk of from 100 to 300 or .500 cows can be brought to a creamery, with a moder­a te expenditure of time and expense, it may uuder s smc circumstances, bo manufactured at a cost not to exceed six or seven cents per 100 pounds. Suppose a water power to b3 situated in the neighborhood. It may be utilized to run a creamory as easily and efficiently as to drive any other sort of manufacturing machinery.

While such a source of power is available it will be much cheaper than a boiler and engine. In many parts of the couutry a wind engine or power will do all the work required in oper­at ing a small e rea imry and do it near­ly every day in the year. This sort of power is cheaper than steam, but per­haps requires more attention in pro­portion to the amount of work done. With the employment of a Cooley or similar apparatus, or the separator , which does away with the necessity of holding the milk for creaming, or cans or vats in which to keep it, tho in­vestment expense can be quite small, and the operat ing expenses can be, kept within tho limit of six cents por 100 pounds of milk handled, if the mess, averages say :?, UOO to 2,.)1)0 pounds daily. In the small creamery skim cheoso making should not be contemplated. The milk is worth more to feed to stock than, under average circumstances, for making hard or medium skims.

This is a question that may bo stud­ied and discussed in many neighbor­hoods where largo associated oroamer-ies have not been established. Half a dozen neighbors can combine their issues and start a small creamery, a n l by doing so remove the dairy work from the household, ma lo a bet ter average class of butter, and got more money for i t The economical manage­ment of a. large or- even medium cream ery is found to be a matter of great difficulty in most instances. The small one, especially if it ba personal proper­ty, is usually so much bettor managed as in the end to bo more profitable Practical Farmer.

It is well to keep a sharp lookout on the currant bushe3 as soon as tho leaves begin to start. The cur ran t worm in some seasons is earl ier than others, and if not checked in t ime may do great damage. Powdered hellebore dusted on the bushes whon the leaves are wet with dews will promptly destroy them. There is no danger of its poisoning the f rui t

The stable is best made in the base­ment of the barn, and then it should always be of concrete cemented with water lime. This cannot leak, and thus saves all tho liquid manure , which is worth as much as the solid excrement, if not more. The cost of replacing plank floors, beside the loss of liquid manure through them, will soon more than pay the expense of putt ing the barn on walls and stopping these wastes.

It is a groat mistake to supposa that cows which get a bite of fresh grass early will not eat hay. The dry feed is necessary so long as they will ea t it. Young tender grass is full of water, and h*s too little nutrition. It scours cows fed on it exclusively, and not on­ly lessens tho milk yield, but causes tho cows to grow thin. Feed some­thing dry, if it is nothing better than straw, and supplement its deficiencies by grain or oil meal.

In any flock of sheep one should be a cosset, made a pet of, and trained to come at call. If a lamb has lost its mother or is disowned it will £>ay to bring i t up by hand, keeping near the houso until grown, and giving as g rea t a variety of food as possible, though not t rying to fatten it. Tho pet lamb is one of tho nicest playthings for the children, all the more because it re­quires some care, and will thus teach them habits of thoughtfulness that in­animate playthings could not do.

There is a great and notable increase in tho demand for sweet cream and this is likely to continue. One cause doubtless is the use of creameries aud of ice for making cream rise quickly, and the least possible injury by ab­sorption from the air. Cream is no longer old before it is gathered; in fact, it is unalfoetod by injurious odors, as is new milk. Tho old-fashion e.l cream raised in open pans is good for cooking purposes; but like cooking butter it cannot be made generally popular as that from creameries.

Laying hens are very fond of broken bones. They help to digest other food when they cannot get a sharp gravel , and with the strong digestive appara­tus which fowls have, every par t is made use of. Tho Hrac goes to make tho shells, but if the bones have been only cookod and not burnod, they are full of materia! from which the egg it­self is made. The only advantage from burning bones is to nuke them break up more easily. The fowls certainly do not like them as well, nor are they so good for them as when broken up

Circumstances UnderWhlch Fran­cis Scott Key of Baltimore Com­posed Our National Song. How came the *-Star-Spangled Ban­

ner" to be written? The wri ter (Margaret Armistead Baker, in the New York World) is enabled to give the following account as an established fact:

The night of Sept. 10, ISM, was a memorable one in the American his-

.of on his son's vessel, the Surprise, where they were accordingly taken, but were afterward conveyed to the Mindea, where Key composed this im-mortiU song. All through the long night Key could hear the roa r of the bombs as they tore through the air, but no explosion followed, and he was left in painful doubt until dawn as to the fate of his beloved country. Be-' fore it was light enough lie turned to see if his ilag "was still t he re , " and

tory. The British fleet, consisting of ' he was Rewarded by seeing the beauti-thirty sail, appeared nt the mouth of 1 fnl StarBand stripes still floating on the Patapsco river with every intention I the soft jmorning air. I t was at this of attacking the city of Baltimore. A momenta/that Key, completely carried short distance from the mouth of the ! away by the excitement of the hour, river stood Fort McIIenry, command- J wrote the "Star-Spangled Banner.1 ' In ed by L ieu t Col. George Armistead, hunting for paper he could only find U. S. A., a young man not over 31 years of age. He had under his com­mand about 1,00) men. From the 12 th to the 14th of September the enemy be­sieged the fort in every available way —first landing many of their men with­in a few miles to the north of the fort, and finding they could gain no headway in this manner they returned to the i r vessels and kept up a perfect cannon­ade.

In sheer desperation the British again landed a force of men—in all about 1,200— but they were again re­pulsed by tho intrepid fighting of Col. Armistead's men and finally beat a hasty retreat. The bombardment last­ed about twenty-five* hours, dur ing which time from 1,500 to 1,800 bombs were thrown, but, s ingular to relate, they nearly all broke in fragments over the fort. In spite of the severe firing Col. Armistead only lost four men, and about twenty-five were wounded. Of all that fought that day not ono man is aliwe, though in 1873 one of the com­pany of the Fencibles survived—M. J . Cohen of Baltimore. The garrison at Fort McIIenry on the 1-lth day of Sep­tember consisted of One company United States artillery, commanded by Cwpt. Evans; two companies of Sea JencibJes, the Washington art i l lery of Baltimore, the Baltimore Ffcdependent artillerists, the Baltimore Fencibles, a detachment of flotilla men, and Col. George Armistead.

George Armistead was born in New­market county, Carolina, Va., on the 10til of April, 17S0. l ie entered the army as a second lieutenant in 17'J'J. He roso to the rank of major, 1813, and way breveted lieutenant-colonel for gallantry at the capture of Fort Goorge in May, U:i3. He had five brothers in the army during the sam 2 year, many of who.se descendants now-live. The vessels which at tacked Fort McIIenry were sixteon in num­ber, five of them being bomb vessels, and for this reason it was all the more remarkable that the fort should have held out, as it was anything but bomb-proof. Knowing this the gener­al had sent Col. Armistead orders to surrender the fort as he considered it an impossible thing to resist such a large licet with only 1.1M0 men. Like Kelson at Copenhagen, Col. Armistead, turned a blind eye to tho orders, de­fended Ills fort, knowing that if he failed court-martial stared him in the face. Nothing, however, succeeds

the back of several letters in his pock­et, and it was as if on odds and ends this glorious- song of liberty was writ­ten. In the meantime he had landed in Baltimore, where he completed his work, and the next morning he took his maiden piece to Judge Nicholson, his brother-in-law. The judge was so struck with its force and beauty that he had it sent immediately to the printer, and within one hour it was printed on hand bills and all over tho city. Every one was wild about it, and it a t once took its place as tlie song.

Around the border of the song, in ,the type of the day, was the legend: "Bombardment of Fort McHenry." Below the song are the words: "Wri t ­ten by Francis S. Key of Georgetown, I). C." The Baltimore American of 1*72, on the anniversary of tho bat t le of North Point, republished the song which had been written just fifty e ight years before. Samuel Sands, the •printer boy who put the song in type, was living up to a few years ago and was the respected editor of the Ameri­can Farmer.

Several copies of the song, with the autograph of Key attached, are known to be in existence—one in possession of the late Mrs. Charles Howard of Baltimore, a daughter of the author; another belongs to Gen. Keim of Penn­sylvania, whose son now has the poem, and the thi rd went to Mr. Mahar, for many years head gardener of the ex­ecutive mansion in Washington. In after vears Mr. Key changed a good many words of the soncr.

There can be no doubt of the authentici ty of the flag. I t was pre­served by Col. Armistead and bears upon ono of its stripes his name and tho day of the bombardment in his own handwriting. At his death it fell to his widow, who at her death left it to her daughter, the late Mrs. William Stuart Appleton, who was born at Fort McIIenry some years a f t e r t h e siege and at whose birth the flag was raised. It luvs ever been sought after oi\ all s t i te oee.isions, one of these being when Lafayette was entertained in this country and another was in the recol­lection of the writer, when it was dis­played for weeks at our centennial, where Tt had a special guard of honor. At the time of Co!. Armistead's de­fense the city of Baltimore presented him. as a token of their high esteem

"When it comes to making foola of themselves I do honestly think tha t the American girl is entitled to t he blue ribbon," remarked Mr. Peterby, who was reading the morning paper.

* ' ^ s , it frequently happens that in the selection of their husbands they show bad taste," replied Mrs. Pe terby , very sarcastically.

"Is that a hit a t me?'* "If the cap fits you there is no ob­

jection to your wearing it, part icularly as it will cover that bald placo on y o u r head."

"Thank you, Mrs. Peterby. You a r e very kind this morning."

'*Oh, don't mention it; but in what particular respect has the Americaa girl been making a fool of herself, and thus invoking your wrath?"

"Well another bogus German baron has married a wealthy American and has swam off with her money. They were marr ied in Baltimore, and now he has skipped."

"And he did not belong to a high family?" asked Mrs. P.

"Naw; his claims to belong to an ele­vated family was not as well founded as that of the man whose father was hung for horse stealing. He claimed to be Baron F. E. O. Von Sucrow, but there is not such a baronet in the Al-manach de Gotha, although there may be lots of them a t Sing Sing and in the barber shops.*1

"But there are some real noblemen who come to this country and mar ry high-minded American gir ls ."

"The high-minded American girl who marries a foreign snob hasn' t got any common-sense. I t costs the American girl, on the average, ¢200,000 to marry one of these titled frauds, but the cost in misery is not known."

"But some of these titled English­men who marry American girls are real baronets ."

"Bah! Very likely their mothers-took in washing, and they themselves studied natural history as elephant at­tendants in a cheap cirou9. It 's what you don't know about these foreign no­blemen that makes them respectable. But it is just as I said: On tho nobility question the American woman is a con­spicuous ass. If an orangoutang with a title were imported into this country, he would not be safe," and put t ing on his hat, Mr. Peterby indignantly went downtown to his office.—Texas Siftings.

The incessant firing of bombs, the clash of musketry, the red glare in tho heavens, tho groans of the dying, the moaning of tho wounded—sij^h was tho sceno which the flag waved over which inspired Francis Scott Key to compose our national song. The song

G-oethe and His Doppelgsenger. Goethe, when a young man, was-

resting by tho roadside on one occa­sion when he observed tho figure of a middle aged gentleman approaching him on horseback. There was some­thing in the features and gonoral ap­pearance of the s tranger that at tracted his attention in a marked degree, for the"face and figure seemed to be his own, although older and more devel­oped. In their costume, however, there was no. similarity whatever, fot> while the stranger wore tho robes o f a . councilor of state, tho young^poot wore the ordinary dress of ciy^rnio. In the course of j 'ears afterward and when the circumstajKJe had been nearly for­gotten it^was brought before him ugain in a- 'most startling manner, for one

following cireumstoffees: A gentleman had left Bajjdmore, under a flag of truce, for>he purpose of gett ing releas­ed frjorn the British fleet a friend of

On looking at the flag it will be seen that-one of the stars is missing and a piece wad torn away. One of those dis-"* figurements was occiu-ioned by a bomb passing through it, and the other piece which is missing was cut out and sent

He wstchod the flag at the fort th rough the whole day with an anxiety tha t can be hotter felt than described, until the night prevented him from seeing it. In the night he watched tha bomb-

stead's soldiers in. Of all the devoted body of men who fought in that battle, as 1 have said before, none remain.

The flag which inspired Key to writo his immortal song is now in the possession of Col. George Armistead's gratidson, Ebon Appleton, a well-known citizen of this citv. In 1S74 the late Commodore Preble, U. S. N., held a special meeting of the Massa­chusetts Historical society, whore were displayed the three flags bear ing

Watch for our Grocery List next week, You will probably think it strange that we should sell so cheap, as the above prices show, We have a number of

reasons for so doing, but time and space will not permit us to numerate them. l>ut. \ve...v,-iTl sinplv say we owe no one and no one owes us m Pinckney, and that CASH is the only way to do business,,-toiir ^ood.s arc new, our Groceries fresh, and our motto is

( ( LIVE AND LET LIVE." Consequently our prices are very low, as you can^etr'n-nm the above, and nil we ask is for v.-u to como once and

we know you will come again. , ^ T o u r s LV^peetfullv,

SHAVER & CO., PINCKNEY.

and all next week we will sell SUSPENDES at prices never before heard of, A 25c. suspender at only 12 cents, and the largest line shown. Sale to reduce stock on these goods.
