Maxwell, of New-Albany, was stricken with paralysis early Saturday morning and lingered till late in the afternoon when she passed peacefully and without pain to what we call the other side." She was formerly Miss Kate Butts of this place and married to Geo. Maxwell many years ago She leaves a husband, two girls and a boy. Bereft of as good a good a wife and mother as could be found. Early she learned to trust in God and lived a consistent faithful life. She was a member of the M.

Most any hour of the day you can find a bunch of boys ranging from 10 to 18 years of age loafing around the depots waiting for an opportunity to start on a trip. Some of these days one of the boys will be injured an arm or a leg lost or may be killed out right- Their parents would then become aware of the fact that their boys have been spending their time in a very dangerous occupation. Now by a little co-operation on the part of the railway officials, the city authorities and the parents of the boys the practice of hopping trains on the boys part could soon be stopped, and none of our -boys will have to go through life minus an arm or a leg living on the charity of others. 4- (CASH WITH ORDER $4.55) NO MORE TROUBLE FROM PUNCTURES. Result of 15 years experience in tire per month making.

No danger from THORNS. CACTUS, PINS. NAILS. TACKS or GLASS. Serious punctures, like intentional knife cuts, can be-vulcanized like any other tire.

Two Hundred Thousand pairs now in actual use. Over Seventy-five Thousand pairs sold last year.

A large number'of Fredonia people attended the service. A good and useful woman has gone to a just reward. The following gave for the entire season: Rev Johnstone $2. 50 Dr Brown 1.50 Cantrall 1.50 Howard Peterson 1.50 Arthur Green 1,50 Prof Whitelaw 2.50 I Matthews 2-50 Rev Estill 2.50 August Holberg 1.50 Charles Vail 2.00 Eddie Hubbard 2.00 Mrs Kirkpatrick 2-50 Rev McFadden 5 00 $1 per month i a Made in all sizes. It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape.

We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice iu a whole season. They weifjh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is fS.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.80 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received.

We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented. We will allow a cash, discount of 5 per cent (therebv making the price S4.55 per pair) if you send FU1.L. CASH WITH OiiDEU and enclose this advertisement.

hign credit on tne town it represents. We will be mighty proud of our Band and with the live spirit of appreciation our city is snowing we know the Band Boys will have no reason to be a shamed of their home town. Bv virtue of our people's liberal subscription the Band will be enabled to retain these services of the talented and popular composer Lieurance, who has won the hearts of our people, as well as the thorough confidence of the band boys by his high class abilities and gentlemanly bearing. Fort Scott and other cities were anxious to secure Prof. Lieurance and offered him more money; but he will remain here as he has a decided liking for Fredonia.

So our people will expect some musical concerts par excellence through the summer evenings. With every assurance at hand that they will not be disappointed and it should be so. The best is none too good for Fredonia; and it the hope of the writer that in every matter pertaining to our civic welfare and betterment, of whatever character it may be, that we will proceed- along the same line, the best is none too good for Fredonia. And while the knocker knocks and the grumbler growls, lets smile and whistle and sing and get out and push for Fredonia aod everything that will help make it a still more attracive. enterprising and ideal town to live in and make a living in.

A hundred years from date we will all be pretty much "hors de combat" and moss covered, hence let's be pretty much' alive now and unitedly work for the welfare of our pleasant little city and make it as good as the best.
