ABOUT
ART MATERIALS.

We went to say something more
about Art Goods.-You know we
have more goods than any other
dealer in Martinsburg.-You know
it because we advertise it, and we
never advertise falsely.-Some will
tell you, "Oh, it's no use for you to
90 there. Fout don't know any
thing about such goods. He don't
know what to buy. You won't find
what you want there."-Pay no at
tention to such statements.-Come
and see.-We haze had experience in
handling these goods-We have the
ONLY complete line of Art Goods in
town.-You need not say now, as has
been the case heretofore, Il wonder
if | can get so-and-so in town.
Just say, "Ill go to Fout's and get
so-and- so. You can safely say this
because you can find what you want
in our store.
