A G. Bakers March Adv t.

! WYE are about entering new era, the
 w month of March. Did you ever see any.
 thing like it? Echo answers, no, never. Like
 TrtIby's foot, "there's not another like it tn
 all Paris-except it's mate," and there's noth-
 ing like March except ean trs Feboan9 ang
 l April. Mud and s1ush. Freeze and untreeze.
 Measles and high winds. Malaria and snow
 cyclonic breezes mingled in equal parts with
 l bad smells and coal ashes. Dust and angry
 | wind sent straight from the shoulder, ac
 | companied by barn doors, skylights and
 profanity, dismembered umbrellas, more
 | dust and the grip, until not one of us can see
 | the beam in our brothers eye on account ot J the presence ot beams and notes and such
 and a general thaw all along the line, and
 l suddenly the whole bottom drops out of the
 egg market and all the principal roads in town. The ice breaks up in the river and, ac. l companied by most Of the bridges and rail 7 fences, moves on to victory and tldewater. Such breaking down and demolition of party lines especially along the bottom lands has been paralleled at no other season of the the late municipal elections in New York city. The old brown hen. our fayor1te hen, steals a nest and surreptitiously matches out chicks which these sudden freezes send to untlmely graves. Surface and snow water find the level ot our cellars through numerous winding rat holes, and the water from our crystal spring resembles in color and taste the drippings ot a tan vat. Unm1nlster1al ex- pressions come to the front in the best of families and trials and tribula1ions seem to rise and tall ad inf1nitum until we feel almost snpplieafion ot 70 Lord, if thou wilt but see fit to take care ot me through this month ot March. wlll agree to take care of myself all the rest of the time." This Is the month we watch with interest the passage to more con genial climes ot the wild goose overhead and the chilblain under foot. Every cloud has it's silver lining and so doing the month of March ihe poor furniture man who has passed wearilv through the long dull months ot winter is cheered by the thought that now is the appointed time when every thrifty house. keeper rouses from her lethargic sleep and searches the country far and near for the most desirable place to purchase her spring carpets and needed articles of furniture, and rIght here we rise to remark that we have a stock on hand and daily arriving that has never been equalled since we began business An elegant line ot carpets in all grades at prices lower than was ever reached before Ninety new and desirable patterns just received. We keep the back numbers care fully weeded out ot our furniture, and you don't claim to be any smarter, shrewder or better business managers than anybody else, but we do claim most emphatIcally that wh Ie we away out in the tall grass and big timber the many and great adyant7 ges ot our location enable us to handle large stock ot furniture on 8 smaller expense than any other live man ill the state can do it today That you can't go anywhere from anywhere on the cars without going through Hawley vile is as true as the familiar quotation "that all roads lead to Rome." Now don't be us as others over carefully before you buy. Now this last was the main and principal point we wished to make to start with. Took us an everlasting long time to make 1t, didn't it? But didn't you ever notice that the point ot most everything is quite apt to be clear out on the end? You never can DaYonet 8 pig gracefully with the first end or middle ot your gun.
