MAN FOUND DEAD IN WAYLAND

He was found at the corner of Main and Washington Streets and unable to speak. He was taken at once to one of our leading physicians who soon brought him to. His mind seemed to be a little unbalanced at first; but in the course of a few moments he rallied and the first words uttered were: "Take me to McCoy and McClintic hardware store where I can get one of those Round Oak Chief Ranges and I will be all right, and you bet I am going to take one home with me. I live up near Washington and I can get one of McCoy and McClintic $10.00 cheaper than I can in Washington.” No more co’d fees.
Round Oak Chief’s Ranges always in stock.
