town tonight."
Ben l". Slyster, the veteran travel
ling representative of the Schwabach
??r Hardware company of Seattle, ami
Mrs. Miry Abellng of Seattle will be
married at 7 o'clock tonight at the
Presbyterian parsonage.
There are a number of "peddlers"
in town and as Mr. Slyster is an
Klk and an A. B. there should be
big doings.
Mr. Slyster and Mrs. Abellng came
up from Juneau on the Cottage City.
Just as they went aboard the Rang i
plank Dave Studler and a few kin
dred spirits started throwing rice
and an impromptu chivari was or
ganized on the spot.
All Elks and Arctic Brothers are in
vited tonight. Frank M. Davis. It. C.
Miller. \V. F. Gilinore and Dave Stud
ler will be masters of ceremonies to
night.
We could make clothes
expressly for you here at home, but
a local tailor shop today is impractical
and unprofitable.
TIAIi MAM autrnu l?M
It has no labor market from which to secure
desirable cutters and tailors ?
It cannot afford to install a modern plant
designed to reduce cost of production ?
It doesn't do sufficient business to enable it
to buy woolens direct from the mills ?
It cannot keep abreast of metropolitan styles
and workmanship.
Therefore, we send our orders
for fine made-to-measure clothes to
Ed. V. Price & Co., of Chicago.
We can take your measure the
same way we would if running shops
here, and furnish you your clothes,
made as you want them, at 50$ less
than we could make them locally.
Won't you call today?
