The Best is None
Too Good
In looking for a hard-coal heater or for a
range bear in mind that they will last you for
years. Don’t buy one because it is CHEAP,
for a cheaply made stove will use enough
more fuel to make it cost you more than a
good one in the end. FAVORITE or MOORE
or RADIANT HOME are so well known that
we don’t fear to “back them, up” with strongest
guarantee.
Our stock of HARNESS is good. We can
supply with a work harness or driving har
ness at right prices. A good stock of
BLANKETS
at prices said to be below what others are
asking. Look at them and see if they don’t
fill the bill.
SHOT GUNS AND RIFLES
Now boys, we can set you up in Rifles from
$1.75 up. We have a full stock of Shells for
Shot Guns and Cartridges for Rifles.

(From the Plymouth Reporter)
Rev. Mclntosh Expires.
Shorllv before 3 o’clock Wednes
day afternoon, after six weeks of
suffering, Rev. C. H. Mclntosh pas
sed from his earthly home into his
Father’s house. His departure
leaves aching hearts in the home in
which his life has been such a ben
ediction for twenty-six years; a sore
sense of bereavement to the church
in which his year’s choice service
has greatly endeared him, and over
shadows the whole community, for
the influence of his sterling Christ
ian manhood cannot be shut be
hind the four walls of any church or
creed.
He leaves also as a blessed heri
tage, the inspiring memories of a
life strong and beautiful in precept
and practice; an unassuming life,
professing little but possessing
much; and a life which has enriched
hundreds of other lives by wise
words and kindly deeds. While he
has gone to receive the promised
reward of those who turn many to
righteousness, his work will con
tinue and his life yet speak for him.
Charles H. Mclntosh was born at
Oswego, N. Y., April 4, 1852. In his
childhood he removed with his par
ents to Canada where he was edu
cated and entered his chosen pro
fession as a Methodist minister.
He came to Council Bluffs, lowa., in
1879 and was ordained as a Congre
gational minister July 16, 1880. He
was married on the 27th day of the
same month to Emma L. Brainard
at Exira, la.
His first Wisconsin pastorate was
at Necedah; from there he went to
Washburn. In both of these places
he built churches which will stand
as lasting memorials to him. At
Menasha, his next pastorate, he first
felt the slight touch of that disease
which was to wrestle for years with
an otherwise magnificent constitu
tion, and finally close his earthly
career. Feeling a change necessary
he spent a year or two traveling and
lecturing for the American Mission
ary association. In the interests of
this work he went to Connecticut,
where he afterwards held two pas
torates, at Gilford and Plantsville.
But his heart again longed for
Wisconsin and he came back here,
settling for a short time at Windsor.
From there he went to River Falls
to enter upon a seven years’ pas
torate that proved to be one of the
brightest in his ministry, and where
his memory is lovingly enshrined in
the hearts of the entire community.
Following his work there, he held
pastorates at Washburn and Worth
ington, Minn. At the latter place
he had the severe attack of angina
pectoris from which he never fully
recovered. Possessed of a daunt
less nature, pain and disease could
not long keep him idle. So, when
preaching was impossible, he en
tered the business field for a time,
selling the “Classics of Art.’’
Just a year ago he came to Plym
outh as pastor of the Congregation
al church. “Toiling much, endur
ing much, fulfilling much,’’ is the
record of that year’s work. Look
ing back upon it, we find it so full
that we can only mention the red
letter days:
The before Easter sermons which
led up to the glad Easter message,
“I know that my Redeemer liveth,”
the inspiring address to the Grand
Army on Memorial Sunday, and the
baccalaureate sermon with its high
but practical ideals, the homemade
service, “My Cup Runneth Over” of
Children’s day, Flag Sunday, the
rededication service so carefully
planned, are only a tew of the
bright things that he brought to the
church here.
Many friends in many states join
in sympathy with the bereaved wife
and daughter Florence who survive
him.
Civil Service Examination.
The State Civil Service Commis
sion announces a general competi
tive examination for stenographic
and type writing positions, to be
held in each assembly district on
Saturday, December 15. 1906, open
to both men and women.

River Falls Wins Last Game
00 r ’.'
of The Season,
River Falls High won from New
Richmond the last football game of
the season Thanksgiving day by a
score of 5 to 0. The game was play
ed in a cold, driving rain, which
chilled the few spectators to the
bone and made the gridiron a pool
of slush and mud and the pig-skin
a heavy, mud-covered ball.
In the first half neither side scor
ed, although New Richmond was
often within striking distance, on
ly to lose the ball on downs or on a
fumble. River Falls was forced to
punt out from under its goal two or
three times and touched the ball
down back of its own goal line
once after Deneen attempted a field
goal. New Richmond put up the
best game in this half : ' dnd should
have scored.
In the second half River Falls se
cured the ball near its 25-yard line
and after regaining from two
successive punts made steady line
gains down to the goal line where
Kay was sent over for a touchdown.
F. Symes failed at goal. The re
mainder of the game was played in
the center of the field and the
score remained 5 to 0 in favor of
River Falls.
DIED.
