Studebaker Vehicles
When buying Groceries, Hardware or Implements, I have always
found Kings a pretty good place to trade. They have a large
stock of first class goods, which are sold at a reasonable profit,
and whenever anything bought at their store, does prove defective,
are more than anxious to make it right. They don't sell toma
toes for 8 cts. a can and then crowd the price up on something
else. If vou are not now trading with The w. F. King Co., I
suggest that you give them a trial.
The above is the universal opinion of our customers. Are you
one of them.

people are all right. He looked at
his watch during the performance
and instead of patting it back into

He did not miss it nntil getting

show. It was as good as lost, but
John concluded to appeal to the
manager of the circus for help to
find it. The manager was found
and the loss made known to him.
Mr. Combs was informed that if it
fell into the bands of any of the
show people it would be returned
to him. The circus people were
called up and the lost watch an
nounced. In a jiffy John had hie
timepiece. The watch was a valu
able one, costing when new $250.
Put this down to the credit side of

Bismarck's Cemmant
In the early days of the present Ger
man empire the question as to how
toe kaiser's title should run divided tbe
court into three sections. One division
favored "German emperor," the sec
ond was for "emperor of Germany,"
while the third wished it to be "em
peror of the Germans." Bismarck,
who was present at one such discus
sion, looked up from a meat. "What's
the Latin for sausage?" he asked.
"Farcimentuin," said one. "Farci
nien," said another. Bismarck smiled
as he replied, "Farcimentum or tarcl
men, it is all the same to me."
