To The Public.

We wish to take this occasion to
extend to our patrons our cordial
thanks for their trade during the past
year. The purchase of our present
storeroom and our removal thereto
nearly year ago, was, in a measure,
an experiment, but the support we
have received has more than justified
our course. Our sales have been fully
one half larger that we counted on,
and the plain inference from this fact
cannot be other than that the people
want the best. Our aim has been
to supply the best obtainable A
member Of the firm makes q weekly
trip to the city in search of the
newest and best. In the spring two
trips week will be made. This fact
assists materially in our success. As
to price, we will not be undersold by
anyone. We could not keep our
trade and allow it. But the high
standard We have set for the quality
of our goods will not be altered. Our
stock is entirely new and fresh.
We hope for a continuance during
the coming year of the patronage
that we have had in the past. We
shall be better situated than ever be.
fore for satisfying all its demands.
We have without doubt as clean,
as fresh, and as desirable a stock OF
groceries as can be found in the
town. Cur aim is-the best. We
will not allow anything else to come
to our house, much less to leave it.
A standard grade and the lowest
price consistent with it. We do not
publish our price list Those who
deal with US know that our prices are
the same that others are selling at.
Just as many pounds Of sugar may
be bought here at at any other pls ce
for ST. Just as many pounds of Cali
fornia fruit of first quality, just as
many bars of soap. cans of corn or
tomatoes, and pounds of teas and
coffee. In short our prices are as
low as the lowest.
Yours Respectfully,
KIRKPATRICK & REED.

Anti-Tobacco,

AS the good citizens of this Nation are
beginning to realize the evil of tobacco, and
also of other narcotics; steps are being
taken to liquidate this evil to some extent.
At the present time there is being circu-
lated copies of petitions throughout this
State, asking for the passage of law
prohibiting the use of tobacco in public
places by youths under sixteen years Of
age.
This is rot new law as New Y ork and
Connecticut have laws somewhat similar
to this one.
We think by unite effort this law will
be passed this winter. We kindly ask thai
our citizens will honor us with their sigma
lures to the petition. when presented.
