1 WITH ROBERTSON ONLY. Those people who buy at stores that | in turn buy from wholesale houses that sell on long time, are astonished, and more than astonished when they go for
 the first time to store that buys all it's goods for spot cash. Such store IS Robertson's, shoe stole that stands ! alone in Western Connecticut in doing l business in the modern way, looking to the manufacturer for their profit. Every year has been record breaker with Robertson's shoe store and 1895 bids fair to outdistance this store's phenome- nal sales in '94.

 We often wonder why the farmer does not raise more corn than he does. The farmer of to-day does not think it pays, says he can buy it cheaper. But first one must get the money to purchase it, when by using little time (which he must not collnt) he can raise this golden grain with a profit to himself. Years ago bushel after bushel was produced on the farm. How our ancestors would have expressed their contempt Of farmer who neglected to put in an acre or more of grain. The times have changed and now when the farmer goes to market laden with produce he has just as much of load homeward bound, laden with grain.

 She often tells of her suffering from the suppression of the menses. The pain was excruciating. The doctors, instead of removing the cause of her ailment, piled her each month with morphine to prevent convulsions; but the trouble was permitted tosexist.
 When she could endure no more, - prostration was imminent and future hopeless, her family procured bottle of Lydia E.sPnkham's Vegetable Com pound, which, surprising, to all, rapidly and permanently cured her.
 In writing to Mrs. Pinkham, pouring forth her gratitude and happiness, she says: "Oh! that could make every suf- fering woman try your valuable medi- cine! How they would bless you!"

CHEAP GOODS!
 VS., CHEAP PRICES :!

The above theme leads naturally up to the question of quality as viewed from the dealer s standpoint. We are thoroughly in earnest in our insistance on the importance of offering Only Re- liable Goods. It is our belief that no price is low enough to redeem an unserviceabls or shoddy ar ticle from the malediction which goes with it Right here is where some furniture dealers make their mistake, in handling goods known to be of inferior quality simply because they can buy them little cheaper than the better grade, and ss these dealers argue, will sell just as well. Maybe they will sell just as well the first time, but if when taken home they do not give the ser- vice expected. those goods will be constant stand- ing advertisements against sellers. Everybody likes Cheap Prices," but nobody likes Cheap Goods" We don't have Cheap Goods" but our prices are Cheap Prices" We have just rsceiv- ed good fresh line of Spring Samples ofCarpsts, Moquettes, Body Brussels, Extra Super Tapestry Brussels with borders to match, c Extra Super l.2 wool, China and Japan Mating, Foreign and Domestic Rugs.
