Mr.. W. A. Shelley is in Chicago this
week putting in the time to the best ad-
vantage with the wholesalers for the
purpose of making himself familiar with
all the latest styles in the different lines
which he carries. He will purchase a
line of spring and summer goods of pat
tern and quality that are up-to- date in
all respects. 1t is fact that no town in
the state of Wisconsin the size of Edger-
ton has clothing and gents furnishing
house which carries as large line of up
to-date goods as are to be found in Mr..
Shelley's store. The appreciation of this
fact is shown by the amount of sales
made at this store during the year.
