The
Telephone
Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional or in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone.
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.

A large party of Newark Wood
men attended the big VV. 0. W.
celebration at Newport Friday.
They report the event a splendid
success, and highly praise the ex
cellent manner in which Newport
provided for the occasion.
Those who have tried it say that
Gold Leaf Flour isofsueh superior
fineness that very little lard is re
quired to shorten it and very little
yeast powder to lighten it. It is
not only as a flour superior as to
quality but economical as to use.
See advertisement in another col
umn.
Newport is preparing for the
biggest Fourth of July celebration

; ment in another column.

(Continued from pagelj
last person with whom the boy
was seen. Near where the body
was found in the river, a woman’s
tracks were found leading down to
the water’s edge, and evidences of
something having been dragged
down the bank. This and the
woman’s suspicious movements
and the fact that she immediately
began preparations for leaving the
country, form a rather strong
chai n of circumstantial evidence
against her.
