Shingles, Lumber, Cement and other building material is cheaper now than they have been in several years, and there is no enterprise more worthy than home building. But start right by using our Portland:'Cement and Cement Blocks in your foundation. Continue right by using our Lumber and finish right by using our Acme Wall Plaster. It will not peel or crack, and every sack of Acme and cement we sell is fully guaranteed. When you are ready to talk building we’ll be waiting for -you, because we have just the material you will need, besides a lot of suggestions that may be helpful to you. Logan-Moore Lumbe BUTLER, MO.

Ward was killed in 1862 in the military service of China dur- ing the Taiping rebellion.
