to observe whilst in Hagerstown the

place of business. His extensive
trade has forced him to secure another
large building adjacent for his gro
Gerry department, in order to remodel
the rooms formerly used for that pur-
pose and throw them into the large
dry goods division of his house. He
carries an immense stock, and when
any of our jefferson people visit
Hagerstown they will find in Mr..

young countyman, who will be pleased
to have them call.

we were shown last week, bySMr..

belongs to Mrs. Susan Howard, of
this place, and which if seen will
bring to the minds of: the poIti5
clans of former years vivid recollec-
tons of the log cabin and hard cider
campaign of 1910. The article re-
terred to is a beautiful pitcher, on one
side Of which is presented a bust pic

scription Harrison & Reform" On
the reverse side is the historical log
cabin, upon the door of which may
be een the words "To Let in

an article we "a readily imagine,
but we do not know that Mrs. How
ard would part with it at any price.
