Special Notice!
On and after January 1,1906, all laundry
must be paid for when delivered. This rule
is rendered necessary by the fact that we

Please don't take offense, if we find it
necessary to adhere strictly to this rule.

Poor Policy.
A report was circulated abcut town
tbe first of the week that Fowler it
Gott had rone out of the plumbing j
business, probably with tbe intent to |
injure tnetr business, in tbat line, i
But if that was tbe intent it had an
entirely different rrsuit, and the firm
is doing more plumbing work tban
ever before. Tbey have not only not
Cone out of tbe plnmbing business,
nor going out, but are in to stay and
do satis!actory work as heretofore,
and the person who started the report
♦o the contrary bad a migbtv poor
idea of good business policy and shows
himselt unworthy of confidence in any
transacttoa.
