The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1898-11-23


therner sent me-" said Mr.. Jones, IL
read Ii. G. Waters n Co.'S advertisement.
Now, as stranger, appreciate the
courtesy of being invited to enter their
store, and know from experience that
the men who advertise are progressive
dealers and the ones who keep the latest
and best goods in their lines" Waters
a. Co.'S prices were satisfactory, and they
received Mr.. Jones' order for the builders
hardware and also sold him one of the
Peninsular celebrated steel ranges and a
Round Oak heating stove. III. G.. Waters
Il Co., sell the ever-popular, moderate
priced Crescent bicycle and do all kinds
of bicycle repairing. Prospective pur-
chasers should see the Crescent before
buying "a wheel.
JONES BUYS HARNESS.
Mr.. Jones knew that not one of his
harnesses would be in keeping with the
new carriage, so he stepped into G.. w.
Rooms shopand selected the finest double
harness which this veteran harnessmaker
is noted for turning out. The price was
attractive as well as the harness. Mr..
Rooms has very complete stock of robes,
blankets, trunks and travelling bags, all
at money saving prices. He is a prac-
teal harnessmaker of many years ex-
perience, and does all kinds of repairing
i'm the best possible manner.
SELECTS THE CENTRAL MILLS "PEERLEss."
Jones is not what is termed a fussy
man, but he does enjoy good -four
at such time as baking is done in his
house. He did the right thing when he
decided to buy Briggs & Co.'S Central
Mills Peerless" A prominent grocer
told Mr.. Jones that he sold more of
Briggs Il Co.'S peerless" than of any
other brands, and other grocers said the
same thing. If your grocer does not sell
Briggs & Co.'S Peerless" you can order
directly from the Central Mills.
JONES BUYS FINE CARRIAGE.
Anyone who knows the pleasure there
is in spinning along with fine turnout
on the fine streets about Paw Paw, will
commend Mr.. Jones for looking about
for the finest carriage in the market. He
went to the rink building carriage repos-
itory of E. j. Harrington, and was sur
prised to get such an elegant carriage at
so reasonable a price. He selected one
of the finest carriages this enterprising
dealer had in stock, and promised to re-
member him when buying sleigh and
his farm tools.
JONES WAS REMINDED.
The ordering of a dress suit brought
to Mr.. Jones' mind the fact that he
needed some dress shirts. He went to
f. Smith & Co.'S Great Whale Clothing
Success, and before he left had placed
an order for half dozen of their Hart
Bros shirts, hat, gloves, hose, two
suits of Staley underwear, and half
dozen fancy shirts for Tom, Jr., and
selected an excellent silk umbrella. a
walking stick accompanied it, and Mr..
Jones was first inclined to reject it as
dudish, but he acknowledged that Tom,
Jr.. might adopt it when he went to col
lege, and had it put in the bill. He
found that Smith 4 Co. are the exclusive
agents for the II. S. Il NJ" tailored
clothing and the Armour collars and
cuffs. Then Thomas Jones headed for
the Dyckman house for dinner.
SELECTED THEIR GOWNS.
When the door of G. h. Avery's dry
goods store was opened by clerk at 1870
o'clock for Mrs. Jones entrance, she in
tended to select simple gowns for her
daughters which could be worn at other
functions than the reception. Miss
Jones and Winifred, however, had ar
rived at the store in advance of their
mother, and already an attentive clerk
was displaying lovely, shimmering dress
fabrics, which were greeted with express
sions of rapture by the young ladies. Mrs.
Jones approved light blue Henrietta,
with chiffon for Miss Jones, who is of
a blond type, with brown hair, grey eyes,
and has satiny white arms and neck.
