IF A WOMAN IS MARRIED
to a good man she will prob
ably stay by him although there
may be better men. There is a
reason for this. Marriage is a
serious thing and it should not
be entered upon lightly. A
promise is made ‘‘until death
shall us part”. Not so with flour,
you do not have to marry a miller
for the sake of using his flour.
You do not have to seek a divorce
to be rid of the Hour that does
not suit you BEST.
Northern Pacific is the BEST
straight grade flour on the mar
ket. For sale at Hamilton’s
Grocery and at the Cascade
Mills.

Members of the Minneapolis Cam
era Club have entertained especially
warm feelings for the good people
of River Falls, Wis., ever since their
Memorial day outing.
The camera people knew they
were going to a place of picturesque
.scenery, but when the townspeople
met them with free carriages, pro
viding special facilities, including
free coffee, and showed them every
courtesy, the visitors were most
agreeably surprised. The Improve
ment League of River Falls is try
ing to raise funds for bridging the
deep gorge which has to be crossed
to reach the picnic grounds. When
the excursionists learned of this a
hasty collection produced S2O for
the bridge fund. The various mem
bers secured about 800 negatives. —

I SALE OF LOTS AND LAMPS
AT WESTON, DUNN CO., WIS., THURSDAY, JUNE 18,1903.
A chance to make a safe investment. $0" s$T Facts about the Town Site.
■ • ' >• /
Location: Weston is located at the terminus of the Spring Valley branch of the C. St. P., M.
&0. R’y, 70 miles southeast of St. Paul and Minneapolis. The town site is platted in the beautiful
and fertile Knight’s Creek Valley, one of the most picturesque spots in Wisconsin.
A NECESSITY.
A town here is a necessity. A double band and circular saw mill, of about 40,000 feet per day
capacity, is now in operation at this point. Many men find employment about the mill, and during
the logging season a large number find work in the nearby logging camps. This industry alone
would support a good town for several years, as the mill is located in the center of a 12,000 acre
tract of choice virgin hardwood timber, besides this, however, all of the adjacent lands not in this
timber tract, are being cultivated by the better class of farmers, and Weston will naturally be their
shipping point and market, particularly, as from the topography of the country, Weston can be
reached with greater ease by a large number of farmers, than any of the neighboring towns.
SPECIAL EXCURSION RATES FOR JUNE 18.
Rate from Eau Claire for the round trip will be $1.80; from other stations between Eau Claire
and the Twin Cities, one fare for the round trip. Tickets will be good on the special, or the day
following, should any desire to remain over.
To reach Weston from tbe east take the C. St. P., M. & O. R’y, train No. 3, which leaves Eau
Claire at 6:05 a. m., June 18th. A special connecting with this train leaves Woodville 7:40 a. m.,
arrives at Spring Valley 8:10 a. m. (Breakfast at Spring Valley,) leaves Spring Valley at 9 a.m.,
arrives at Weston 9:30 a. m. To reach Weston from the west take No. 4, whi< h leaves St. Paul at
8:30; a train connecting with No. 4 leaves Woodville ot 10:15 and arrives at Weston 11:50 a. m. A
free dinner will be served to visitors at Weston. RETURNING, A special train will leave Weston
in the evening in time to connect with No. 2 leaving Woodville 7:44 p. m. for Eau Claire, and No. 1
leaving Woodville at 8:15 p. m. for St. Paul.
YOU CAN SEE THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY AT A SMALL EXPENSE.
Plan to spend a day in this beautiful country —one of the garden spots of Wisconsin—where
you will have an opportunity to make an investment that will pay you a profit. Teams will be at
hand for the use of those who desire to see the surrounding farms and wild lands. Good openings
for general stores, blacksmith shop, elevator, creamery, and othen lines of business. Plenty of work
at the mill and in the woods the entire year. For further information and plat of the town, address,

PAINT TO
STAY PAINTED
When you paint, it’s a satisfac
tion to know that your money
and labor are well spent. They
are well expended when you cov
er your buildings with pure lead,
zinc and linseed oil.
Paint that looks well when ap
plied can be had anywhere. Paint
that will look well three or four
years hence is not so easily found.
WE BACK THEM.
We are in position to make the
strongest possible claims for the
paints we sell, and will stand
back of them. If anything ever
goes amiss we are here to make
