Parties owning property which

assessments are coming in auu
paying up in good shape and it
looks like they would all be in be
fore it becomes necessary to sell the
nronerlv. If they do this it will
save them a great deal of expense
and trouble. So far there is very lit
tle extra expense, as the little ad
vertising bill is all the additional
expense, but if it goes to sale, there
will be penalties, interest aim cosi,
all of which will be a great deal
more than lust the amount of the
assessment. It is hoped the proper

sell.

Keep Bright and You
WILL KEEP BUSY
F.lectric Light is the magnet that draws trade. The
bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business. People can
no more resist the attraction of it brilliant, lilcctt iciilly lighted
store than they can resist the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Klcctrictilly illuminated show
windows, bright interior nud sparkling Klcctrlc Sign getting
uu advantage over you ? The moth never llutters nrotiud the
unlighted candle! Up-to-date .stores nowadays consider
shop-window lighting n necessity, whether they lemiiin open
after dark or not. Competition forces modem methods,
A show window brilliantly illuininnled with Klcctrie
light will make many a sale "the night before." Klcctrie
light coiuc1h attention, makes easy the examination of your
display, shows goods in detail nud fabrics iu their true colors.
And don't neglect the Klcctrie Sign. It is soliciting
"tomorrow's" business every moment it is lighted burning
your name iu the public iiiiiid. It is n solicitor that never
becomes weary never stops work - - costs little.
