Louis W. Hill
Was in town Tuesday evening and a great many people gathered on the hotel sidewalks to welcome him. If every-one knew aa
much about the quality of our RHINO KINKLESS GARDEN HOSE and our EASY RUNNING, BALL BEARING LAWN
MOWERS as some of our satisfied customers that have tried them, our store would be more crowded with customers than the
hotel sidewalk was with people Tuesday evening. Tie the Rhino Kinkless in a dozen knots and the water still flows through
smoothly. We cut it any length required. If you want to buy a new piece of hose every year or two, don't buy the Rhino as it
will take from four to eight years to wear out Nearly everyone in town knows that we have a variety of HOSE FAUCETS,
SPRINRLERS and SPRAYERS and all should know that our prices are right

Magnetic Storms.
Contrary to tbe general belief, map
netlc disturbances do not begin at the
same moment all over tbe globe. In
stead of tbat they progress round the
earth. In the case of abrupt dis
turbances, which are usually compara
tively minute In their effect on the
compass needle, the complete passage
round the earth requires from three
to four minutes. For the bigger ef
fects or for the greater magnetic
storms the rate of progression Is slow
er, so that It would take them half
an hour or more- to pass round the
earth completely.
SELFISHNESS.
There are some tempers wrought
up by habitual selfishness to an ut
ter insensibility of what becomes
of the fortunes of their fellow crea
tures, as 2 they were not partaken
of (he same nature or had no lot or
connection at all with the specie.
