The BEST RUBBER BooT.-The ''Nine-
ty-6ve Per Cent. Sterling Rubber Boot"
is advertised in our columns. There is
nothing better for farmer or outdoor
man than a good rubber boot, and moth
ing so exasperating as a bad one. The
"Ninety-fve Per Cent. Rubber Boot" is
all that is claimed for it. 1t is as nearly
pure rubber as can be made, is made
upon honor, and will outlast any three
pairs of other rubber boots. The manu-
facturers warrant them three months, the
date of the selling of each pair being
punched in the top of the leg. The heel
of these boots is protected with an iron
guard. There are three soles, all made
of pure rubber. Farmers, lumbermen,
miners, and all who pass their winters
out of doors, will do we'll to inform
themselves as to the merits Of this really
valuable article. 1t is the best, and in
the long run, cheapest rubber boot made.
LIE rsoBINso~ 14NI1T.-''- Il 1s00IH-
son, who purchased his partners interest
in the Little block last spring, beside
converting the larger part of it into
stores and offices, has just completed
very large and convenient hall in the
south wing of the building. The hall
is reached by only one flight of stairs
and a few steps through a wide walk
way to the hall door. The room is over
20 feet in length by about 40 in width
and sufficiently high to give ample space
for good gallery above. The room il
lighted by over twenty large windows
and is very pleasant for day gatherings
it is lighted by large chandelier ant
other lamps for evening. A stage sufi
GENTLY large for any opera troupe, o.
for the singers of county convention il
built across the south end. There will
be stairway to the stage from the out
side, independent of the hall. The seat
are common chairs. and the easy seating
capacity Of the hall and gallery is 600
There will be three rows of seats on tn
gallery sides and several more at tn
end. A neat iron railing runs around tn
gallery front. The hall is finished plain
ly but neatly. Much pains has BEEF
taken not only to make it pleasant AM
convenient, but to make it so stron
that their can be no possibility of it
breaking down, no matter how great
number it may contain. 1t is just wha
the village. the town and the county ha
long needed, and affords a place 70
holding conventions, political meeting
and other large gatherings. We trus
that Mr.. Robinson's enterprise will b
as remunerative to himself, as it is con
venient to the public.
