An unusual occurrence is reported by fishermen, that, contrary to the assumption that salmon never cat after leaving salt water, the fish show a readiness to take bait float- ed on the surface. A fisherman is considered lucky it" he lands his fish as "they make a mighty battle when eis A with the hook in the raging waters." Visitgrs report hundreds of fish were scen simultaneously making flying leaps to mount the falls in a single lunge, then "breaking" des- perately with their tails. Tossed and bruised against rocky walls of the gorge, the salmon arc into quiet pools in side eddies, rest, then resume their up-stream nrec- ca. Ja a space of four square feet, scores of large salmon were sighted in side pools. The, movement of the fish to spawning grounds, is declared a re- cord bv local pioneers. Most of the salmon have been of Moricetown Falls, near here, UNHAPPY MAN! : (The Hugnorist) ra liand: Do you remember ears ago in your father's parlor when | I asked you to say one little that would make me happy -- life ?

Owie to the vapid oh of our ladies and children's s Roadydo: Wear Depts., we find it necessary to devote more space and attention to these sections. After thorough investigations we are convinced that we can render a more efficient service to our customers by carrying larger assortments and fewer lines of merchandise. The buying public to-day demand greater assortments to choose from and it is impossible for a store Bf our type to stock so many lines of mer- chandise and have assortments in each line demanded to-day.. In making this decision it is therefore necessary to clear our complete stock of piece goods and household goods as quickly as possible in order to make necessary alterations in time for the Fall Ready-to-Wear season. The change in this method of our business will cut down overhead expenses greatly and enable us to give still keener prices than that which has built this store's lasge turnover in the short space of 3 years. Dewland's prices have always been lower for quality considered, but during this sale it will pay you to visit this store daily as our only object now is to clear our fixtures as quickly as possible regardless of price.
