Better Store Buildings
A good store room is & better
investment than a poor one.
Why can't some 2-Story bricks
be put up on Second street In
place of the wooden structures
now holding down Valuable build-
ing lots. There is not amerohant
in the town but what is doing
good business and if he is not in
a brick or stone building should
be. The one thing of insurance
Would more than pay the diffsr-
enoe in rent, and you would not
feel, every night when you went
to bed, that you were going to be
In business in the morning or
not. The insurance rate of Q'/i
per cent is simply prohibitory
and very few carry it, so a fire
fnear.s that you loose the accu-
mulations of yeafe in an hour.
The brick store room while it re-
duces to a tenth the liability of a
fire, looks nicef and gives jou
content of mind. After the first
of the month the cement building
put up by Nichols and Hamilton
last year will be occupied In
every room, both up stairs and
down, and at rent rate that will
pay good interest on the money.
Other builnlngs will rent as read-
ily. It not only improves the
looks but improves the price of
property all over the town.
Are you aware?
That SPRING is nigh at hand and then the order of the
day is
House Cleaning
Which is by no means an easy task, but I can help ligh-
ten your work, by selling you Ammonia Turpentine Var-
nish, Brushes, Paint of all kinds and colors, and can
brighten your walls with ALABA8TINE, but for the old
walls you need new
Wall Paper
And I have received my spring line of fancy Wall Paper
in new paterns, and its cheaner than ever before. Come
in and see it even if you don't buy. Let me figure and
show how little it costs to paper.
Don't forget me when in need of DRUGS.

It is reported that Dr.. Perisho
Will build in the spring. We do
not know if the doctor has heard
the report or not, we hope io.
He owns the building which i$
how occupied by N. Heffron and
rents the one he is in which is
owned by a city man. The re^
port says that these two buildings
will be moved out and the dootor
and the Okla. City man will put
up two large rooms and h, secorid
story. This would be the begin-
ning of a boiFding boom for the
town in that block.
The insurance by the state of
all bank deposits goes into efiect
Sunday, the fGth. The comp-
troller of the currency has given
his consent for the National
banks to pay their part and take
but insurance the same as the
state banks. Both banks here
will have this insurance as both
Wave put up their per cent. This
makes it impossible to lose your
money by the closing of a bank
and it should increase deposits,
as their are many people Who
keep theif money in hidding fof
fear of bank failures, There is
some uneasiness among the bank-
ers for fear unreliable people may
start banks for the purpose of
failure in order to profit by the
insurance plan.

Wednesday y/ma Lincoln's
birthday. It is to be make a le-
gal holiday. In^^rriting of Abra
han Lincoln several years ago,
the late Henry W. Grady of At-
lanta said: From the union of
these oolonies, from the straiten-
ing (yf their purposes and the
crossing of their blood, came him
who stands as the first typical
American, the first whd compre-
hended within himself all the
strength and gentleness, all the
majesty and grace, of this repub-
lic—Abraham Lincoln. He was
t' e sum of puritan and cavalier;
for in his ardent nature wers
fused the virtues of both, and
the depth of his great soul
the faults of both of these were
lost. He was greater than
puritan, griater than cavalier, in
that he was American; in that in
h|s homely form were gathered
all the vast and thrilling forces
of this ideal government o/ ours
—charging it with such tremen-
dous meaning, and so elevating
it above human suffering, that
martyrdom, though infamously
aimed, caspe as, a fitting crown
to a life cqnsecratjerf from i*s
oradls to hrman liberty.
