nome keeper, is indeed a RESPONSE
DIE one, and she who pellorInes its
duties with proficiency aud cheer
fitness deserves commcndatioa
Economy, skill, neatneSs and good
taste go long Way towards the ac
complishment OF the happiness and
prosperity we all desire
1t will he her task to make HON,
with the material aud means which
men furnish, to turn mere dwelling
houses into centres of attractive
domestic life.
Upon her chiefly will fall the
duty of ornamental life, cultiVating
It's taste, keeping lis moral nature
alive.
The woman WHO is to be happy |
and useful as the maker and mis- |
tress of home must know the art OF
homc-making aud home.lullug.
The carrying out of ideas such As
now are conceived would even al
few years ago have been accom-
plishcd ouly at Il g.eat expenditure
of time III travelling, and Il lal@e
outlay in money, but now, thanks
to the Enterprising Manufacturer,
Lively Competition in trade, the
Modern Credit s. stem, and Low
Prices, all assist the ambitious
house wife in providing herself with
a home that for Years perhaps, has
existed only in the imagination.
Without assembling too much cred
it to ourselves, we think we can
point olt how we have added no
little to the comfort and happiness
of all that have favored us with
their patronage.
1t is universally acknowledged
we believe, that healthy competi.
ton invariably results in low prices
and practically there WAS no com
petition in the House Furnishing
Business III Maine prior to our
establishing ourselves here, and
that the connection caused by the
i launching of our bark has not yet
subsidized is equally time, Tor the
dealers are ever troubled by our
movements that must necessarily
be continuous, from orr nature and
the volume of our business.
OF our Credit System we will say
that no system has yet been devils
ed that affords so many advantages
to the buyer and al the same time
is not harsh on unjust in any SENSE,
on some accounts l. is to he prefer
red to the Cash System, so men Of
means testify,
While these are the main reasons
why our prosperity is thing to be
desired by the citizens Of the State,
there are many others equally
valid why our success Is to hc hop
ed for, and the faithful house wife
should have an interest in, one of
which is, there never was ii time
previous to our coming when the
eXactlng customer could get every
want supplied with as little difficult
ty as is now experienced, for all
that has been placed upon the
market having sufficient merit to
warrant a continuance Of the manu-
facturc, may he found at our head
quarters, and i'll one Of our many
| branches. And we are continually
upon the alert for novelties and
everything that is at all likely TO
be wanted by any ofour numerous
customers, whether in high priced,
medium, or low grade goods.
We are aware that an article of
this kind will provoke query how
much will it cost to furnish my par
lor, chamber or kitchen
a knowledge of your require
ments, tastes and resources is neccs-
sary BY resources we do not refer
to ready cash, real estate, or per
sonal property, particularly, for

their weekly or monthly earnings
for the inStal.nent payments OF 30
or $40 each month, and during the
time enjoy the use OF goods
To answer such an inquiry we
will suppose you to have $1,000 i'll
money, and can save from your
living expenses $40, Sl2, or $1,000
in each month, and that you want
