The Klondike Strawberry.
Rock Inland, Tex., Nov. 12.
EiuTUH NKVVS-I'iikonici.i;.
In response to numerous let-
ters of inquiry regarding the
Klondike strawberry, I beg space
in your valued journal to say
that I have fruited the Klondike
two years and do not believe it
has an equal as an all purpose
berry, not excepting the famous
Lady Thompson.
It was originated by R. L,
.Cloud, of Independence, La.,
¡about five or six years ago. Its
parents are the Lady Thompson
I and the the Hoffman, and it
seems to have taken the best
, qualities of those two most ex-
cellent varieties. The fruit is
i extra large and firm, dark red
all over, and a constant and
I profuse bearer, and always
¡commands the very highest
prices iu the Chicago market.
I am not handling the Klon-
dike plant this season and know
of but one firm who doe , that
is Terry Uros., Independence,
La., at $1.50 per 1000 plants. I
have no doubt but this new
j candidate for public favor will
soon supplant the Lady Thomp-
son. heretofore the acknowledged
leader. Ai.bkki I). Rust, Sk.

Doesn't Respect Old 4ge.
It's shameful when youth fails to
show proper respect for old age, but
ju«t the contrary in the case of Dr.
King's New Life Pills. They cut off
maladies no matter how severe and
irrespective of old age. Dyapepsia,
jaundice, fever, constipation, all yield
to this perfect pill. 25c, at 8. B.

County Court Doing little.
The case of Boedeker vs. the
Santa Fe, which was on trial
when the Nkws.Chrontci.k went
to press last week, resulted in a
hung jury and was continued.
Several other cases against the
railroad were continued Friday,
and the case of Lem Blake vs.
Santa Fe also resulted in mis-
trial and continuance.
A motion was being heard
yesterday in the case of Condra
vs. Santa Fe, asking for a new
trial in the case.

Big Gains in Sales at the Big Store.
DESPITE the fact that this has been the hardest year,
financially, that this county has seen in many years,
and the fact that we have been short of help, on ac-
count of sickness, especially our head and best sales-
man, who has been sick ever since about August i, our sales
show a gain of TEN PER CENT up to November i over the
same period last year, and OUR OCTOBER SALES SHOW
A GAIN OP THIRTY PER CENT over the same month last
year, and we are going to HAKE OUR NON EMBER SALES
SHOW A GREATER GAIN THAN OCTOBER. J|JST WATCH
US DO IT.
Could these gains be made, under these conditions, were
our goods, prices and methods not right? No! The people
want honest goods at honest prices by honest methods, and
we give it to them. This is the whole story in a nutshell.
