A CARD 70 THE PUBLIC.

I hatter myself with the idea that all those
that know mo best know that my manner OF
doing business with my fellow-citizens with
whom / have lived for forty years, has ever
been to represent things as they are and not to
misrepresent any article for the sake ofselling
it, or getting it off my hands; so in regard to
THE "BIBB DIAMOND HEATER"
which I advertise and offer to the public as be-
ing the very best stove in use at the present
time. [ think so far rs the merits OF tho Bibb
and Sexton Stove arc concerned there IS as
much difference between the two stoves as there
is between Seymour and Grant. [ discarded
the Sexton Stove because | vol knew the Bib
Stove To- be q far different and better one; hence
it is that I want the public to know the fact
Still at the same time if any of my friends want
the Sexton Stove / will put them up for $40. -
Still before doing so compare one with the 9TH
er, and think there will be no difficulty in de-
Gliding which is the best stove. 1t is well known
to vi stove dealers north CT this place that the
Sexton Stove is going out Of use and the Rbb
Stove taking its place. J. make this statement
believing it to be my duty, and to act with good
faith TO my, fellow-citizens. A call from the
public TO examine these stoves is MI [ want.
