As the silver dollars circulate in the various stores the merchants will have an idea of the buying power brought about by a thriv- ing business such as Pearsons.

All the stores are urged to watch for these silver dollars circulating in town. .o .Racier-Mitteiholtz Stage 88c Sale, Starts Thursday Rader and Mittelholtz are again holding one of their giant 88c sales starting Thurs- day morning, August 21, They have a variety of over thirty articles, all very useful in the home, which they will be selling for 88c each.
