EIGUT PAGES.
GROCERIES ARE AN ABSOLUTE
necessity to every human being.
From the day you enter the world
until the day you leave it you have
to patronize, directly or indirectly, some
grocery store. You have to eat to keep
alive. Among the earliest lessons taught
in life is a regard for your diet, by select
ing only fresh and wholesome food, and a
regard for your purse by practicing the well
established rules of economy. We can sell
you fresher and better goods and more of
them for cash than you can buy elsewhere
on open account. Look over our stock,
get our prices, and be convinced.

Fine Peaches from the Meadows.
Some exceptionally fine fruit and
vegetables are being brought to Her

Pelmulder of The Meadows. On
Tuesday Mr. Pelmulder had among
his produce, peaches that measured
seven inches and were of delicious
flavor as well as faultlessly colored.
Several varieties of apples have come
from this orchard that speak well
for the quality of fruit that can be
grown In this section.
Mr. Pelmulder has also had fine
success with tomatoes, having had
plants of excellent thrift and that have
produced heavily.

Sunday morning at S o'clock at 600
Tustln street at the home of Mr. and

pastor of the First M. E. church, per
formed the short ceremony which

SMALL FIRE DAMAGED
OLD ACADEMY BCILDfNG
Another small blaze occurred here
last evening when one of the old
academy buildings on east Webb
street was slightly damaged. It was
the building at the wept end of the
grounds and It was found to be on
fire about 9 o'clock last evening.
George O'Danlel happened to be
passing the old buildings at that
time and finding the old school house
on fire gave the alarm and tried to
quence the blaze with a bucket of
water. However, the fire had gotten
under too much headway and It re
quired the fire department to hiyidle
the blaze. The central companies
and No. 6 were called out and sdon
had the fire out.
There Is much mystery surrounding
the origin of the fire. It may have
been started maliciously, while an
other theory is that rats carried
matches and other combustible rub
bish into the place, thereby causing
the fire.
The tract of land on which the
buildings are located belongs to the
school district, but the buildings are
owned by J. H. Lawrey and Peter
Medernach.
