Putnam, of this city, received the Nashua (New Hamp shire) Gazette, and an item therein gives the account of the Putnam family re-union at that place. Mr. Putnam has not seen any of the above members for the past thirty-eight years, and though getting along in years, he expects to be present at the next annual gather ing. Below we give the. paragraph "The fourth annual re-union of the Putnam family was held at-the resi dence of David Rideout, in Dunstable, Oct.

2, 1882. The gathering occurred on the 82d birthday of the host. The weather was all that could be desired, so that the largest company yet assem bled there.

AH unite in saying it was a most enjoyable occasion, Among the many branches of mer chandising, none perhaps should be carried on by men of greater reliability, strict, honesty and probity, than that of dealing in boots and shoes.

H. Howard.

There Is an enormous amount of money spent by man of family for boots and shoes, anl for the reason that girls wear out so many shoes, and boys are so terribly hard boots, it behooves every man to deal with firms who are trustworthy and reliable, and sell only goods of the best quality. We therefore cordially commend our. read ers to A. H. Howard, on the south side of Market street, and opposite the Osage County Bank.
