A FEW FACTS.

How is 1t that there is such nice assert
ment Of Goods at Hollis Variety Store?
1t Is because the goods were bought early
before the best have been picked out.
These goods are bought for cash and sold az
cheap as poorer goods that are bought lster.
Any one looking for Lamps, Crockery, Fan
cy Dishes, Plush Goods Of any kind, Pictures,
Skates, Sheds, Toys, Dolls, Games. etc., should
call and examine before purchasing.
Our aim In Confectionery is to buy the best
and keep it Fresh.
