I was down to HALL & HAYES to get one of those
Silk Floss
they make. They are strictly all floss and each bed
guaranteed, and they have the most complete line of
Carpets, Rugs, Matting, Lace Curtains, etc. in the
city. And say, those Couches they make are just
simply grand. And they said they would not be
beat on prices.

Daring Burglars
Foiled!
The residences of several of our best citizens were
attacked by a band of blacklegs now infesting" this
city, in the shape of Flies, Mosquitos, Gnats, Bugs
and Worms. But we are pleased to state that the
blood-thirsty villains were foiled at every house
where we have sold Wheeler screens -the only real
Scientific Screen.
These Screens are really "burglar-proof," for they
are the only Locking Screen; a burglar would have
to cut the wire which would waken any one! Peo
ple who sleep on first floors appreciate them.
Ten-Day Free Trial
On any or every window you wish to screen. No
matter what you thought to buy, or what you
thought to pay, first use the Wheeler ten days free,
and learn all that a Screen must do to satisfy year
after year.
OfT thev come after the trial if thev fail in anv way.
