Price on shaving reduced from 25 cents to 5 cents. Real estate agents leaving the city by scores {daily.

About the only business in Southern Cali- fornia is selling the climate in December and January and buying it back in May. Just Received.

Watrtos & Tucker Investment Co., 29-tf Butler, Mo. The Latest. One of the latest villanies perpe- trated on the farmers’ wives, says an exchange, is the sale of “non-explo- sive, oil-saving lamp wicks,” which the vendor warrants to make a sav- ing of fifty per cent ip the oil con- sumed, prevent explosions, and cause the lamp to give a “light equal to gas.” The smooth talker proves his last statement by putting one of his wicks in the lamp—not as a bur- ner, but simply putting it into the oil receptacle and lighting the lamp. As a matter of course, the good wo- man imagines the light is splendid, because it is probably the first time she ever saw a lamp burning in the day time, und believing the agent to be “truly honest,” as he says he is, she invests a dollar and a half for a half dozen small-sized lamp-wicks | that have been saturated in dirty water, and in full confidence that the bills for coal-oil and gasoline will be | reduced one-half to three-fourths.
