WWNKSDA Y, JANUARY .
The Christmas trade this year was phenom
enal, every merchant doing a larger business
than he did the year previous, which tip to that
time was a record breaker. But Christmas buy
ing is only an incident of business. It is your
every-day trade of the rest of the year that
counts. That is what we want to get and shall
continue to ofFcr you the very best service and
prices possible in our line which is DRUGS,
MEDICINES and Sundries, exclusively.
Sundries in this case means combs and
brushes, toilet accessories, pocket books, fine
stationery, perfumery, books, toys, etc., and the
famous LOWNEY candies.

The Oram AL'rey livery barn in rear of

of hay had been driven into Hie burn, the
team unhitched, and Mr. Oram and bis
young helper bad Just begun lo unload
tho bay, when a lighted gas torch ciime
in contact wiih tho inllaniable sulubmce
and almost Instanllv tho entire in'do of
tbo building was ou lire. The borsoi and
live-stock wero in the basement and were
quicklv taken out, but so rapid and fu
rious was tho spread of the lire that only
few of the vehicles were saved. Two
strains of water wei e soon playing on the
burning building, and st'-ango to say,
succeeded in extinguishing the llainet
aflor more than an hour's bard and per
sis:ont work, but tho building above the
ground floor is practically worthless.
The loss lo Mosrs. Oram A Ui ey in

foois up over f 1,-luO, but this is fully co
ercd by insurance through tho Turner
