You Select Your Rugs,
Carpets or Draperies
Why not make your spring selections from the largest, best chosen stock In this
region? It will give you the advantage of comparison and will insure your finding
just what you want.
This store has reason to be proud of its showing along these lines, for seldom
does any establishment succeed in securing so handsome and varied a display or
such remarkably low prices.
There are dozens and dozens of tasty new patterns here which delight all who
see them, designs which for their artistic excellence alone are worthy of a place in
any home. Best of all, however ,is the fact that our rugs, carpets and draperies
are all priced lower than the same excellent qualities have ever been sold for dur
ing the past few years, a fact due to our fortunate buying.
Come and enjoy our display, we'll be alad to welcome you whether you purchase
or not.

TREE FRUIT MAY BE
HURT BY THE FROST
Crop of Cherries, Peaches, Plums,
Pears and Apples Likely to
Be Cut Down.
Fruit growers in this section incline
to the belief that the severe frosts of
the last two nights have seriously dam
aged -the cherry buds and may result
in cutting down the yield of other tree
fruit, 6uch as apples, peaches, pears
and plums. It ia believed, however,
that the loss will not prove total with
any variety. The freeze last night was
not quite so serious as that of the
night before, but probably did more
damagp, owing to the fact that the
! ground was colder. Little harm seems
to have been done in the gardens, to
matoes that had been set out being
about the only vegetable to suffer.
