This writer will say for the benefit
of the lady readers, that he Inspected
a quilt a few days ago made by and
belonging to Miss Mittle Vaughn that
beats anything of the kind he has ever
seen. I; represents two special traits
of character, patience and endurance
She calls it the curiosity quilt and it
well represents Its name. It only has
twenty thousand two hundred and eigh
teen pieces in it. This looks like ex
ageratlon but it is so arranged that
any one that can count the sides and
ends and a little multiplication can
soon find the number of pieces it con
tains. If possible this quill will be
on exhibition at tho county fair where
all may see that have a desire to see
a curiosity of this kind.

No Clap-Trap Schemes Used
By Us In Securing Sales!
In this day of hustle and bustle in nearly every line of trade we find
some hot-air plan adopted to secure sales. The placing of a fictitious price
upon an article and then giving a check to a customer upon the purchase price,
provided the article is bought within a short and limited time, too often en
traps the unwary buyer, and makes him think he is getting a large amount
as a gift upon the purchase when in fact he is paying more in the end than the
article is worth. The puzzle contest guessing contest and endless methods are
used. The United States Government has now condemned the giving of cer
tificates of the puzzle contest. Pianos are advertised at $375.00 and a check
for $150.00 is given good on the purchase of the piano when in reality the in
strument is not worth $200.00. We have no dope to administer in the way of
great bargain chances; we do give you the vaiue of your money and give all a
square deal. We sell Pianoes and Organs and ask that you keep this in mind.
We can give you two years distribution of payments. Absolute satisfaction
guaranteed.
