Some of the best work ever put
ont in the country has been executed
at this establishment. Making q
speciality of fine work, no job is al
lowed To leave the works unless per
fact in every respect, which is the
best advertisement that could be put
forth by the firm. This high stand
ard of excellence is the secret of the
general satisfaction with an increase,
ing demand for their work. Their
sales are not confined TO this locality
They receive orders from distant
points for their goods, their sales are
steadily increasing.
The cardinal points which have
had a tendancy to make this firms
work so popular are substantial con
struction, complete finish, honest
workmanship and first class material
used. Ma. Tinker being practical
mechanic gives the firm the advant
age of knowing whether the work
is perfectly executed or otherwise.
TIE LUMBER YARD
contains a large and varied assert
ment of building material including
siding, flooring and bill stuff, etc.
with hair, lime, lath and cement
drain and sewer tile. Among the
excellent industries Of Alma none
are more worthy of success than the
above firm, for the members have by
honost and fair dealing and manu-
featuring first class goods, won a dis
tinction creditable to them and then
success illustrates the truth that by
adhering strictly to a business thai
men are adapted to, is the surest road
to success and prosperity.

increase of skilled workmanship
shown is wonderful in comparison
with that of two decades ago.
Among the valuable industries of

A BUSINESS REVIEW.
POLLASKY BROTHERS.
Dry Goods, Cloothing, Boots, Shoes
and Gent Furnishings

and Gents Furnishings
The dry goods and clothing bus
mess are among the leading com
mercial interests Of the country. In
winter and in summer in fair weatE-
er or foul, in times of pain and
prosperity, there is a relative amount
Of trade for the dry goods dealer, as
there is for the butcher aud grocer,
To keep this business at It's highest
average requires that such dealer
should keep goods adapted to all
the tastes as we'll rs to the changing
seasons; that he should be able to
use capital freely, so as to buy ON
the most favorable terms, that he
may sell accordingly. To meet the
changing views of those who buy at
retail great confidence is placed up
on the experience and reliability Of
the firm that has been successful.
The firm which makes it its con-
slant aim and study to meet the
varied demands of its patrons is sure
to stand at the head of the
list. Those varied elements have
combined TO build up a hourishing
trade for.

Max f. and Frank +, Pollasky the
members of the firm were educated in
the dry goods and clothing tradeunder
their father and from their boyhood
have been identified with it. Their
early training gave them practical
knowledge of the business in all its
branches that is of great value to
them in their present position.
They buy their goods of first class
hands in the main and thus save the
profits of middlemen where by they
can offer better inducements to their
customers.

The Supreme Court Colossus.

Justice Gray is the giant of the Su- preme Court. saw him a few evenings since, at what is called in Washington a "card reception,' shaking hands with Minister Carter of the Sandwich Islands, who is q tall man, right over the head of Mr. Spofford, the Librarian of Congress. As is we'll known, he is q bachelor, and lives i'll fine house, which he had built according to his notions. The ladies of Washington love to say that there ism t closet ill it, but his architect, MT. Marsh, assures mo that there are closets in every room. There is story that once, at a card party, a woman won Jus tice Gray as Q prize, whereupon he rushed from the house, declaring that no woman would ever catch him alive.
 The lady sent him word that if to take him dead, she could be his widow, she would not object. Although Justice Gray looks so big and dignified when sitting upon tho Supreme bench, I hap pen to know that if he has touch of the gout. he is like big baby, and screams out if any ono comes within a rod of the foot he is nursing. After all, the individual man, even if q "big- is much like his fellowmen.-New Fork ,SraT.~

 Tho heavy rains. last fall totally ruined crops in some localities and it's effect is now being seen in diseases among farm animals. Almost every day cases of roup, swelled head and a distemper very disastrous amor 6 oll- try are reported. A part of this is also due to improper feeding. Many persons think as soon as cold weather comes on, they mus, begin to feed heating food to their hens, like corn meal, &c. The result of this course is, if they no not break down from the diseases preval.nt, they soon get very fat, look fine and people wonder why they do not lay. You cannot make 0 hen lay when every fat, and laying the foundation of disease same as with an over fed child or person Alfred T. Johnson, Hampton, N.
