of Mr.. G.. w. Robinson l was attracted
by the seeming great taste used in the
display of his goods, as well as the mag
nitude, rivaling, | am sure, any l have
seen in this section. He conducts gen.
eral store, carrying mems furnishings,
boots and shoes; fine line of assorted
groceries and delicacies, all OF which
looked fresh and very desirable, besides
handling large quantities of lumber. Ev-
erything about the store betokened Il
large and prosperous business, augment
ed by the strictly honorable and up to-
date business methods practiced and a
marked courtesy, which l noted accord
ed all patrons. The very agreeable en-
tertain ment given me by Mr.. Robinson
made me feel that his is indeed very
pleasant place to trade.

homo on my visit there to-day. This
gentleman, find, conducts really high
class store, one which it is a pleasure to
visit, rivalling in patronage any like con-
Germ in the county. Every department |
found filled with choice lines of clothing,
drygoods, hardware, groceries, provis-
ions, carpets, in fact everything needed to
insure comfort in every sense in the
home. A new acquisition made lately by
Mr.. Hopkins to his already immense
stock is finely selected line of offurniture,
embracing parlor, bedroom and dining
room sets, rockers, chiifoners, ETC., etc,
The general appearance of Mr.. Hopkins
store bespeaks large patronage, and l
can safely say it enjoys the same If Tio-
nesta people possess the good judgment l
give them credit for in selecting only
high class concerns for the necessities of
life.
TIONESTA PLUMBING COMPANY.
Also on my list of pleasant visits |
must record one made upon the Tionesta
Heating & Plumbing Co., who monopol-
ize, as it were, the patronage in that line
throughout the locolity. l dropped in
yesterday and had the pleasure of views
ing for the first time one of the most COM
pletely equipped and finely stocked
plumbing establishments that 1 have
seen for some time. Some of the largest
contracts in plumbing and roofing in this
locality have been satisfactorily complet-
cd by this firm and stand as fitting testi
monials to the skill of the concern, and
to its popularity in this line throughout
this vicinity. Also specially is made
of bicycle repairing in all its branches. l
saw while there the 1900 Liberty model,
which is handled hero exclusively by
this firm better wheel for the money
was never manufactured, as know my
self, having ridden one for two seasons.
SCOwDEN & CLARK.
l felt doubly repaid for my visit to the
large concern of Scowden C Clark by the
courteous treatment accorded me by
those gentlemen, and by the enterprising
appearance of the interior OF both large
store rooms. Messrs. Scowden & Clark,
l learn, have been connected with this
concern for about IA years, and through
able business management and courtesy
and liberality shown patrons have
amassed a patronage which ranks among
the first of its kind in this section. A
large line of heavy and shelf hardware,
farming tools, machinery, ETC., is shown
in one building, while in the other high
class wagons and carriages are manufac-
tured, speciality being the manufacture
ofwagons especially for the oil country
trade. Messrs. Scowden Il Clark are
held high in the estimation of th~ir hosts
of patrons and are alike popular cem-
mercially and socially.

THE CENTRAL HOUSE.

There's nothing dearer TO a travelling
mans heart than good hotel, and with
out exaggerating at all 1 can safely say
that found here in Tionesta a hosiery,
as it were, worthy of all the praise and
commendation that can be showered
upon it by its hosts of friends among the
commercial and tourist fraternity-the
New Central. The house found to be
equipped with all modern improvements,
the rooms large, airy and sumptuously
furnished. The entire house throughout
has been remodeled and relurnished.
equipped with brass mounted bedroom
sets, gas stoves, bath and toilet rooms,
electric bells, ETC., and possesses all the
conveniences Of city hotel. l wish to
dwell especially on the dining room with
its fine service in charge of uniformed
walters, and its really high class kitchen,
presided over by chef of the first water,
is something to be remembered by all
entering. The proprietors. Gerow d
