SILVER
QUESTION :.

Go see Frybarger's display of sill
yer ware; the finest ever brought into
the county. Triple plated, with man
ufactures 10 year guarantee. While
the goods were brought here for pre-
MUM purpose, one piece to every $50
worth of general merchandise bought
in my store, / will sell any piece or
set of the ware at hard times and so
cent silver dollar prices and take pay
in silver money.
Single pieces range in prices from
$3.50 to So, and consist of cream
and syrup pitchers, spoon holders,
sugar bowls, butter dishes, cheese
dishes, teapots, celery and fruit
dishes, pickle castors cake stands,
fruit and bon-bon baskets and
castors.
One whole tea set, six pieces, for
SIS. Buy now, for when Bryan is
elected and congress passes the new
silver law, silver goes into money in
stead of silverware. hence the de-
mand in that direction forces the
prices of silver up and silverware
advances double.
