Our peolc are not easily deceived and
SO many claims have been made by
strangers which have not been carried

numerous In Wheeling. Nothing gives
confidence in the merit Of an article like
the public statement OF people we know.
Home endorsement from local citizens

proof that rises above dispute. No bet

do any household work without causing
