Yours truly, ms Jil f)T uLU ! iiiiiu THAT TIME PRONOUNCES BEST ! It isn't for to-day, to-morrow or next week that you buy Snit of Clothes. Clothes are bought to serve-the longer ie better. The better tbs Clothes the better they serve, and the ??Uer they look, even to the last day. You can't get service or appearance out of poor- work manship. A thrown-together, pressed-up Suit may look ali ight for a week ; then comes the time of kicks and dissatis action. Peck's Clothing, [or which we have secured the agency, is made to serve s&g and well ; to keep its shape ; to look dressy aa long as |ou want to wea* it. That's the kind of Clothing it pays to buy.

They und just bought a box ot seed from ono ol tho drug stores hero when arrested. The sale of these seed is a violation of law, as is also tho ped dling of medicine without license.
