We do not claim to have the largest Drug Store in the
world, because we don't know much shout other Drug
Stores, but we do know that we are doing everything
in our power to treat our customers right and give them
full value in honest reliable goods. We take the liberty
of calling your attention to a few specialties this week:
We think our line of rubber goods, in fact all goods used
in the sick room, is complete.
Come in and examine our Sáxie Weimer China, we feel
that we can interest you.
Last, but not least, our Soda Fountain Drinks. We
handle the Celebrated J. Hansford Smith's Crushed
Fruit, and Bissant's lee Cream. Come in and ascertain

Beulah Wright and Mrs. J. B.
gave a reception at the lat-
's home to the Junior Endeavors
. .Jiristian church in remem-
jjhf Uncle Sam's one hundred
and twenty-ninth birthday.
The hours from four tc seven
o'clock were spent in the various
kindergarten exercises of stringing
beads of the sphere, cube and
cylinder shapes, marching with indi-
vidual U.S.flags,singing "America"
and in answering questions pertain-
ing to our country's independence
that were propounded by Rev.
Haston.
For a souvenir of the evening,
each one sewed on cardborda de-
minutive "Old Glory" which was
taken home to; be ^cherished as a
pleasant reminder of the enjoyable
and very profitable time spent on
the Fourth of 1905.
It was indeed a thoughtful and
noble act cf Mrs. Haston and Miss
Wright to thus forget themselves in
giving pleasure to the children in
such manner as to make of them
more intelligent citizens years hence
and to instil into their young lives
grand feelings of patriotism.
Near the hour of departure re-
freshments, consisting of palatable
lemonade with oake,were served and
relished by all, and each Junior
went home with a heart full of grati-
tude and a mind better instructed on
the birth and birthdays of our nation
because of the Fourth of July
reception that had been tendered
them. ■ ■

Big Realty Deal.
One of the largest land deals of
the season was closed this week,
the parties to same being B. T.
Ware and J. L. Wilson, both of
Potter county. Mr. Wilson ex-
changed his ranch in that county for
the Ware place just north of Here-
ford. This is perhaps the best im-
proved ranch in the county and con-
sists of three sections of land and a
$6,000 or $7,000 residence.
Mr. Wilson arrived with his
family this week and is occupying
his new home. We wish to con-
gratulate him upon his valuable
acquisition and extend a hearty
welcome, on the part of our citizens.

OCCUPATION

The Jewelers' occupation and business is no longer
considered a luxury, but a necessity, lfow-a-days
«•time is everything." It enters into every trans-
action. The safety of thousands of human lives
depend on the time and time-pieces furnished and
looked after by the retail Jeweler. If your clock
or watch is not keeping time bring it to me and I
will tell you what is wrong with it. My charges
for repair work are always reasonable and I
antee satisfaction on everv iob I do.

Misses Robinson Entertain.
The young people are ever happy
when given an invitation to go to
Mrs. W. B. Robinson's for an
evening's social pastime for they are
permitted such ease and freedom in
their pleasures that their oft-given
verdict is that they have more
splendid times than anywhere.
On the evening olí the Fourth, quite
a pleasant time was spent with the
Misses Robinson in the indulgence of
games that the young ever enjoy
and in listening to many inspiring
piano numbers.
As a climax to the pleasures of
the evening and as a fitting close for
