A TALK ON FURNITURE.
BY Il. b. LAPLAM.

Talking politics is one thing and
talking business is another, however,
the two ought to be combined and
hooked up together 10 such a manner
that neither should interfere with the
other to the others disadvantage.
Politics, business and religion should
90 hand in hand each manipulated in
such way as to make the other better.
But when it comes to talking on fur
niture exclusively we relegate politics
TO the rear. Chiffoniers, china, closets,
side boards, Bullets, dressers and book
cases of the A. ID. 1900 make were
never prettier in design and finish.
Golden oak and mahogany are the up
In G styles and shall this season and
will remain so for a long time. The
