CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.
SUN RISE AND MORNING STAR.

AUR attention has been called to an ad =
~ vertsement in Saturday evenings paper by a
stove dealer in this place advertising to supply their
custom ars with the Cooking Stove SUNRISE, for
which we are the sole agents for this place, having
purchased the right of sale for the stove in Washing
ton from the inventor and manufacturer The above
dealers advertising the stove came in possession of
two of them, which were sent samples before our
purchasing the right of them. They refused to give
them up order for them from the inventor
We deem this explanation necessary to the public
put them on their guard and inform them they can
only obtain the stove from direct from the manu-
facturers. There are four more of them in this
ket, sent as samples perhaps they may get them.
After having over twenty-five years experience in
the stove business pronounce them to be the very
best fattop cooking stove saw sold they
will do all we warrant them to do-to give perfect
satisfaction.
We would also caution the public from buying an
article called the LIGHT STREET, made to represent
the celebrated Morning Star, but which has none of
the advantages attached to the Star.
We warrant the Sunrise" iat-top, and the
"Star" to perform all we say for them.
Please call and examine for yourselves, next door
to G. Woodwards old stand, No. 318.
Please read our former advertisements.
We annex the order for the two Sunrise stoves.
