and there are comparatively few
men who can afford to disdain the
price-difference between COLLEGIAN
CLOTHES and equivalent qualities
in made to measure garments.

past seasons.

Repels Attack Of Death.
"Five years ago two doctoM told
me I had only two years to live."
Ihis startling statement was made by
Stillman Gieen, Malachite, Col. "They
told me I would die with consump
tion. It was ep to me then to try the
best long medicine and I began to
nse Dr. King's New disccovev. It was
well I did, for today I am woikirg
and believe I owe my life to this great
throht and lung cure that has cheated
the grave of another victim." Its
folly to suffer with coughs, colds or
other threat and lung troubles now.
Take the cure that's safest. Price

A Delightful Meeting
It was the pleasure of the edit
or of the Gazette-Times, in com
pany with Hon. T. J. Mahoney,
of the First National Bank, to
attend the regular monthly meet
ing of the Congregationl Men's
Club of Lexington, on Tuesday
evening. This Club has been in
existence for several months past,
being organized through the ef
forts of Rev. Otho G. Reade,
pastor of the Congregational
church at Lexington. At every
meeting it is planned before hand
to have some outside speaker pre
sent to present to the Club
an address on some subject
of live interest, and Tuesday eve
ning, following an elegant ban
quet that had been prepared by
the wives of the Club members,
Mr. Mahoney gave an able ad
daess on the Relation of Banking
to the Business Man. In classi
fying business men, the speaker
included the farmer and stock
raiser; he dwelt at some length
on the history of banking and
what it really is as an institution,
showing clearly what kind of
policy should be followed to place
the bank on a safe basis for hand
ling the funds of its depositors.
Mr. Mahoney also stressed diver
sified farming, dairying, poultry
raising and hog raising, and
plainly showed how important
this is for the future of our coun
ty. His address was not lengthy
but it was full of good meat from
beginning to end and was receiv
ed in a very appreciative manner
by those present. Following
Mr. Mahoney, a reading was giv
en by Mrs. Ella Craven Wheeler,
and a short address on the loyal
ty of the towns of the county to
each other, by the editor of the
Gazette-Times. After this ad
dress, Mrs. Wheeler favored the
gathering with a number of read
ings which were greatly enjoyed.
W. E. Leach, president of the
Club, presided, and the wives of
the members were present to
partake of the good things of the
evening along with their hus
bands; this being out ot the usu
al order as the meetings hereto
fore have been attendid only by
the members. In this organiza
tion, Lexington has taken a for
ward step; in fact she can be
said to be ahead of any of the
other towns of the county along
this line. The members are en
thusiastic, are getting hold of
live subjects, and the organiza
tion is proving to be a booster for
the little city. The editor of this
paper was indeed glad to.be a
eruest at the gathering on lues-
day evening, and expresses the
hope that he may be able to at
tend many more similar meet
ings. To say nothing ot the
good things that the ladies had
prepared for the inner man, the
intellectual feast was itself a fea
ture that was well worth going
many miles to hear and enjoy.
For his opening night at the
new loratinn. Mr. Parks has or
dered the Passion Play, three
reels; also a good comedy, making
four reels for the one show, and
a good vaudeville act will be put
in for full measure.
John F. Richardson, of the re
clamation service, was in Hepp
ner over last nieht. getting a list
of the lands owned within the
limits of the West extension, that
they may be lined up with refer
ence to their water ngnts.
Mr. Branstatter. the new own
er of the Yocom place near Lex
ington, is making some good im
provements to the property. He
has recently located here with
his family and appears to be the
kind of a citizen we are looking
for. He is putting the house in
nice shape and is also laying the
foundation for a good barn that
will be pushed to completion at
once. More people are needed in
Morrow county who will give at
tention to the improving of their
surroundings with good residen
ces and barns. It is a specie of
advertising that counts and speaks
volumes for the thrift of our people.
