Barfaiss ia Itei Stainway Pianos.
If you know of anyone who
wishes a very good piano at a
moderate cost, he will be inter-
ested in the fact that just at the
present time the well-known mu-
sic house of Lyon & Healey,Chi-
cago, have a large salesroom en-
tirely filled with psed Steinway
Uprights. These Steinways em-
brace a wide variety of stiles.
All of them, of course, are gen-
uine Steinways, and all of them
are in fine condition, but there is
a great difference in the cost."
Besides these instruments Lyon
& Healy are also now offering at
a great trple clearing Sale, all
the pianos formerly owned by
the Thompson Music Co., the
Healey Music Co., and the big
Thearle Piano Co. You can have
any of these fine new instruments
at 20 to 40 per cent less than
usual prices.
These pianos will be sold either
for cash or upon very easy
monthly payments. Freight on
an upright piano is only a mat-
ter of a few dollars. All of these
instruments are fully guaranteed
to be exactly as represented.
The opportunity to secure one
will undoubtedly be taken ad-
vantage of by the shrewd buy-
ers in this vicinity.
A letter to Lyon & Healy, 77
Adams street, will bring full
particulars.

A woman’s back has many

That’s why Doan’s Kidney

Many Clar sville women know
this.
Read what one has to say
about it:
Mrs. E O. Bruton, living in
Clar sville, Texas, says: "I
suffered from pains across my
back and in the region of my
loins. Accompanying this mis
ery were headaches and dizzy
spells which would almost make
me blind, and mornings I had a
lameness in my back. I used
several preparations, out re-
ceived little benefit. My hus-
band finally heard of Doan’s Kid-,
ney Pills and procurred a box 1
for me at the John M. Butcher!
Drug Co. I soon found they
were doing me good aed contin-
ued using them until I was ben-
efited in every way. I gladly
endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills to
other suffers.”

Jia Graham Shat asA Killed by Taa
Brown, Tba Ferryman at Month at
Blue.
In a difficulty that came up be-
tween James Graham, formerly
of Lamasco, in Fannin Cpunty,
and TomBrown the ferryman on
Blue river, Thursday morning,
Graham was shot by Brown and
died shortly afterwardo.
The details of-the killing was
told today by a man who came
in from north of Honey Grove.
According to his statement, Gra-
ham and Brown had been talking
for some time before the difficul-
ty and began to quarrel about
something that one of the men
is supposed to have said to the
other, and Brown drew his pistol
and fired at Graham-
There were no other men near
where the killing occurred and
this statement is hearsay. It is
also rumored that Graham had
refused to pay the ferry fee and
that the killing resulted over
that.
Graham formerly lived at Lam-
asco, in Fannin county, near
Red river, where be has relatives
yet residing. The tragedy took
place on the Oklahoma side of
the officers of that state are
making an investigation—Paris
