Baskets could not 'be - purchased at Ttiore than 75 cents, as that was the limit, and but few. went for less and they worth again as much. The Xutherari ladies are consistently keep ing up their reputation for generos- ity.

"Caprice' Too, Will Be Shown By Film Route Monday and Tuesday. Commencing next week the Arcade . will introduce famous players each Monday and Tuesday evening. The first is to be "Caprice," Mrs. Fiske's famous success with Mary Pickford in the title role,' This is a delightful comedy drama of society, "ovi and the great outdoors.

Mrs. Math FIRST POlfllCIIL SIGNS (Continued troin "age One.J in the- new law is not explained but seems readily understood. County Judge Henry is about to come to the last lap of his four-year term, and though he is considering the matter of running for office' once again, he has not said the word, eith er negatively or affirmatively. The next week or two will probably de velop an answer from him on the subject. Notwithstanding that he has not announced his intentions, no other man has come out for the job, though several are discussed inform ally by political gossipers. County Commissioner Cecil Gallo way, of Elgin, is the only commis sioner to have his job come to an end, but while Cecil has not avowed him self, his friends expect him to runv even in the face of statements made, some time ago that he had no inten tions of seeking office again. The county clerk job is, to all ap pearances, to be one of the chief fea tures of the primary campaign. Lee Warnick has been rumored as a demo cratic aspirant, but this Mr. Warnick denies. i Sheriff Hug is not what is called a politician and therefore does not see the necessity of early alignment of his rods, but his friends admit that they have their ears to the ground to some extent and will unquestion able urge his jo be a candidate on the republican side of the fence. David Proctor is a candidate for the republican nomination to the of fice of recorder. He admits as much and intends to commence his cam paign early. John Frawley, old time republican, is out after his treasury job again, "and of course, it is a foregone con clusion that none will run against him," say his friends. The county surveyor job will prob ably see the present incumbent run, and as "Doc" Curtis is a democrat, the republican column has a place in the primaries. Curtis has not made his formal statement one way or the other yet. Dr. C. T. Bacon has not decided up on his political aspirations for county coroner.

The simplest way to reach so many persons is to insert a little want ad in the Observer and you will be talking to about 5000 persons "S! at the same time. Could you $ possibly see more than 50 of these persons in one day ? It is not likely. The busy man lets others do the talking and con- ? serves his energy for the trans- action. A paper never gets out of breath, never loses energy and always puts the proposition in a few lines. If your time is worth money you can't save it more easily than by a want ad. $ Trying is believing. The Ob- S server is willing to prove it. 4 J S c$ J home on Fourth and! Washington.
