SOMETHING NEW,
The Magic Inside Window Blinds

SA4S SAA@6AN @6SA0V w 4a0SW 044l4Qo'
John Orr Il Co., have lately pur-
chased the sole right for the manu-
facture and sale of A. II. Hills pat
ent improved inside window blinds
in Christian and adjoining counties,
Kentucky, and Robertson, Sumner
and Davidson counties, Tennessee.
These blinds have several advantages
over the old style folding blinds
they are made in two, three or more
sections, according to the height of
windows; the lower section is made
with rolling Stats, the upper sections
of stationary Stats, and have these adj
vantages. They do moi interfere with
curtains or plants. They do not sag,
as they are not hung on hinges. The
! light or air can be admitted from any
part of the window. To shade from
the sun, they can be placed at any
part of the window. They do not rat
tie, and are easy to remove for clean
, ing. They will remain at any height
desired. They do not cost as much as
folding blinds and are much more de.
sirable for either private dwellings OIL
public buildings. A sample of these
blinds can be seen at their mill, and to
those contemplating building, and to
contractors, architects and carpenters
we commend an examination of these
blinds before completing your con.
tracts. Remember John Orr 4 Co
are the sole manufacturers and agents
for the above named sections and ter
lritory. Go and see them.

HopK1NsvTLLE
And It's Great Future.

a KENTUcKIAN reporter during
one of his semi-weckly strolls over
the city was almost electrified over
the vast improvements going ON by
the Observation-Disclosures citizens of
the place in The way of rebuilding
and a general overhauling of private
and business buildings, the like OF
which was never known in the histo
ry of the town. After the great fire
of October, 1882, and the numerous
fires since that time, the people with
strong determination have, "Phe-
nix" like, risen from the ashes and
are determined that Hopkinsville
shall rank second to none in Southern
Kentucky, and we might say the
whole State. The merchants arc
aware of the fact that she controls one
of the finest tobacco growing coun-
Ties III the State, ana with her Other
great facilities there is no reason why
she should not prosper. The reporter
noticed all of the improvements going
on with degree of pleasure and wa.
satisfied after talk with the nu-
merous merchants that the outlook
for business during the coming
Spring and Summer was better than
ever before. Even the farmers look
more cheerful. The merchants arr
laying in great stacks" of goods
while the farmers are dong likewise
which in itself is good omen Of
thrift and grand enterprise for Hop
kinsville and Christian county.
