Hardware and Implements.


1896 finds us in Our new store
building better prepared than ever
to supply the trade with hardware,
farm implements, stoves, ranges,
tinware, oils, paints, ETC., etc. The
greatest possible care has been taken
IN investigating and selectIag these
goods, not, however, to find low
grade of goods, but to get the very
best at the lowest possible price.
Nearly ali our goods are bought
from manufacturers direct. While
we do not profess to do what others
in the same business cannot, yet we
do propose to give a man as much
value for his money as he can get
anywhere. First quality of goods
is generally sold at less profit than
the inferiory but the customer is
always best pleased with the good.
Our wagons, plows, nails, wire,
harrows, sewer pipe, cultiyators,
ETC., are shipped IN car loads from
factory so as to save freights and
benefit the customer. We have
now on hand the best line of shovel
plOws and cultivators we ever han
died. In mowers the new Cham
pion, also the new Ideal roller and
ball bearing Deering machine; the
latest improved Pennsylvania grain
drill, and three grades of hay rakes.
We can offer to the trade good steel
frame spring tooth harrows at
greatly reduced prices 1t will
afford us much pleasure to show
goods and quote prices to persons
in need of anything IN our line.
Many persons are deceived by send
ing for goods they see advertised at
lower prices than good articles are
worth in the market. The tend
ency of the age is to cheaper goods
rather than increase durability,
hence the necessity Of careful ex-
animation before purchasing,
Yours,

t t0slly waived at the proper times
during the rendering o. the pro-
gram, was an inspiring sight and
the visitors present were impressed
with the thought that patriotism in
the Oakland public school is in no
wise on the wane. but that the eff
cient corps Of teachers in charge of
the school believe in educating the
rising generation to be good, true
and loyal Americans as well as
bright and intelligent citizens.
The whole program was very good
but two or three features deserve
especial mention.
The primary department in its
calisthenic drill greatly pleased the
audience.
Helen Fay, a young miss of about
thirteen summers, displayed won
derful ability for one of her age in
rendering her piano solos.
Masters viii Rice, Paul Mitchell,
Earl Kildow, Victor Fairall, Frank
Harne and Grover Stemple brought
forth rounds of applause by the
manly way in which they delivered
their combined gesture recitation
entitled "The Choice of Trades"

and deservedly applauded and the
visitors came away well satisfied
with the progress our boys and girls
are making in their studies.

reputation of this firm is rapidly
spreading all over the country and

stand at the head of the flower grow
