Lamson Bros. finished their semi
annual inventory on Monday evening,
the 18th and on Tuesday morning the
store had quite different appearance
from the day before. Every depart
ment is now full of spring goods. They
are offering larger lines than ever and
are in much better shape to please
their large and growing trade that they
are now doing. AS usual Ghey show
only reliable goods; they never handle
poorly made trashy goods just because
they are cheap. The people in general
want substantial, well made goods at
moderate prices, and it is on this class
OF goods that the firm has laid its
foundation for the large trade they are
doing. If you want good goods, correct
in style at prices that are always as
low as the lowest, you will find that no
house in the state OF Ohio will please
you any better than Lamson Bros,
