Man Makes the Money
Woman Spends It
But she spends it to good purpose.
That's why we are always on the jump
in this store. It is why so many fami-
lies in this community trade with us
Women know good bargains when they
see them; they can't be humbugged.
They come to us because they know
our goods and prices are right and they
keep on coming and bring others.
We aro mighty proud of the fuct that our store
is always thronged with women for
women lenow where- to shop.

ARTHUR BELL DIES OF BURNS.
Arthur Hell of I.nKomp died Satur-
day January 8tli as a result of burns
reaelved in a gasoline explosion sever-
al weeks ago. The "awful tragedy
which befell Mr. Hell and family who
were returning homo overland from
Colorado to upend the holidays will
bo remembered by readers of the
Herald.
Mrs. Bell wa burned to death in
the explosion tho youngest child died
a few hours later and Mr. liell and the
other little one received frightful
burns. It was thought at ilrst that the

after lingering for several. weeks Mr.
! Bell contracted pneumonia and the
e n u came suddenly. While terribly
buVned the child will recover.
Thi j sad tragedy again brings us face
to face with the uncertainty of life
