A Well Stocked and Well Ordered
Hardware Store.

To look at the large and well order
ed stock of goods in Daniel & Cos
hardware store one would have
thought there was little occasion to
make new purchases. There seemed
to be everything and plenty OF it,
and yet, as result of Mr.. Daniels
trip North, they are getting in and
putting in its proper place enough
new goods to stock an ordinary hard
ware store out and out. Mr.. Daniel
says he always tries to supply the
peoples wants, and to do so he keeps
about everything in his line, and the
quantity of goods he sells necessitates
the carrying OF very large stock
which has to be constantly replenish-
ed. .sEverything in hardware" is
their motto and that of the best at
the lowest price.
