IN NEW QUARTERS.
The Handsome Building Into Which
T. A. Kent Moved Yesterday.

Handsomely refitted and renovated T.
corner of Seventeenth and Ferguson
streets, for which he recently paid $780,
500, is the most eligible as it is the most
beautiful bank building in the city. Mr..
Kent's old bank, which adioins the
new structure, did faithful service for
many years, but largely increased bust
ness demanded increased facilities. which
the old banking house did not afford. A
removal to more c~ommodious quarters
had, therefore, became a necessity and in
n week after the purchase the new build
ing is occupied and opened for business.
For years the name of T. A. Kent has
been synonymous with enterprise. He is
~tireless in his energy and farseeing in his
shrewdness. He makes a go" of every
thing he undertakes. Nearly everyone
looked upon the street car system as being
ahead of the town. For a time after the
line was built it certainly seemed SO. Mr..
Kent then took the matter in hand and
now instead of one has three different
lines in operation, thoroughly equipped
and stocked and already more than pay
ing expenses.
In his business methods he is thorough,
He knows exactly what he wants to dc
and does it without any waste of time.
In his new quarters he has better facilI'
ties than ever to meet the wants of his
customers and his banking business will
receive a wonderful impetus from the
change.

If there is any one thing which
makes the publisher of a
weekly newspaper more weary Of
life than another, it is the neglect
OF the post-ofiice employees through

to regard the newspaper portion of
the mail matter as something Of the
least importance; and they are not
at all particular ABOUT distributing
