OF THE
CARRIAGE BUSINESS.
ADVERTISEMENTS.



After careful canvass of the different
towns and cities in every county of the State,
| have come to the conclusion that there new :
a better time than the present to en-
gage IN the carriage business, that is, for one
who has "A thorough knowledge of the bust
ness and who Is willing to take off his coat
and put his whole energy into the WORK.
sixteen years ago you could not sell a good
vehicle for what 1t cost to produce it. That
was because some were deluded by the cheap
western limitations of our work which could
be bought for much less sum- but which were
worth practically nothing. 70 be sure they
looked very sptCk and span at first, but one
-eason, if they held together as long as that,
proved TO the owner the foolhardiness of the
policy of purchasing the cheapest without re-
gard 10 the saving to be made in the long run
by buying OF a local dealer and getting your
money : worth. The INSCRIPTIONS dealer
reaped harvest off these carriages. Some he
bought as cheap as S25 and palmed them off
ON some unsuspecting customer for 500 or
However, everyone who purchased one of
those carriages is to day Il walking advertise
ment for good work and doesn't lose chance
to recommend You to buy a good wagon, pro-
Nided you can secure one at a reasonable price.
! am personally acquainted with people all
over Malne-from nly home in Ellsworth to
John Mallmon's hotel in Lubee. to Smiths
hotel in Caribou, to the Whitney house in
presque Isle, TO Patten by way of OK Beau, to
Moosehead Lake and across the country to
Rockland and back home
In all my travels | have failed to find one
man who has given the western carriages a
tTldl lHdI Will again use one or recommend
others to do so. When asked what he knows
abodt western carriages he shakes his head
and says he knows enough about them to let
them alone.
To show you that | am sincere in my re-
marks, let me tell you what | have been doing
this winter. | have built eighty new car
rlages that am in hopes to sell. | warrant
each and every one of these carriages to be
FIRST-CLASS in MATERIAL and WORK
MANSHlP. Should any part prove other
wise, at any time, will make it good regard
less OF the length of time it has been in use.
70 this end will furnish reference second to
none in the State.
But to those who still willing to try one
of those western carriages l would say that |
have the agency for this county for one of the
best made-the Cortlandt wagon. 1t is made
by the Cortlandt Wagon Co., of New York
l am Offering these wagons at a very low
price. Anyone residing in Hancock, Wash
lngton or Penobscot counties, who is in need
of a carriage of any kind and who will write
me stating his needs, will call upon with
the carriage he wants.
MY PLAN OF WORK is as follows:
Will call upon you in person and explain to
you any points you are in doubt about. | can
then ma out your exact needs. If it be an
express you want, can suit YOU with light
medium or heavy. In top buggies | carry
four different styles, in fact, anything in the
carriage line you can find at my shop. Don't
buy until you see my work and the low rates
am offering.
