ton of the business Of Wterbaury.
Mr. George c. Arms has been connected with
the Waterbury Marble Works five years. When

part OF the State. lie never allows Job TO leave

shop. The marble is received from the quarry in
rough state, it is ground, polished and chiseled
into beautiful forms by his workmen. The Suth-
erland Falls Marble Mr. Arms considers the best
marble for this climate We do not think it will
receive quite as high a finish as the Italian Mar
BILE, but It is more durable for this climate it is
the best. 1t is beautiful marble Mr. Arms

monument in the County. Also a Head Stone for
Roger Buckley, Of Moretown, elegantly finished

design on the face We also saw in the shop
beautiful monument Of Italian Marble designed

Will only notice one other price, monument erea-
ted to the memory Of Abia A. Nash, of Duxhury,

Mr. Arms shop has, until recently, been ON
MAN Street, but the growth of business rendered
II necessary for him 20 have more room, conse-
quently he put mp a new, two-story building %
AZ feet near the depot, which he now occupies.
A new street has been laid on the opposse side
OF the park to run from Main Street to the depot
which will be worked as soon as the crops are off
the park.
Those in want of Marble Work will find it to
their advantage to give Mr. Arms a call, aud We
advise all admirers of beautiful marble work to
visit his shop.
