Here is what the manufacturers claim for
their wagons.
We use only thoroughly air-dried timber o
the very best quality using white oak for bolS
tiers and hawns. white oak reaches hi white
oak poles.
Our axles are made of the very best selected
hickory.
Our wagon is thoroughly ironed In every par.
ticular. Our irons are unusually heavy, ami
both front and hind gears have double braces.
Our skeins are of the pattern known az the
Holmes Patent Straight bearing Skein, which
Is conceded by wagon men to be the easiest
running on the market
We use white oak hubs, white oak gpokesa and
white oak fellows, using nothing but the grade
known as "a select"
Our wheel is thoroughly dried. The bulbs are
expanded by steam. The spokes are driven In
glue by a power hammer, making the hub and
spoke one solid peace of timber. Every wheel
is soaked in boiling linseed oil, rendering them
lmpervious to moisture. The tires are always
tight.
Our wagon is painted with three coats of
paint, striped and vanished. We dip nothing.
In buying the Original and popular Fish
Wagon yoII may rest assured that the quality
and workmanship are the best, and you are
getting the best wagon on the market.
When in want of a wagon, please remember
the above facts. aud also that we guarantee
and stand back of everything that we claim.
Our wagons will give you the best of ~satlsfac-
ton or else We do not ant you to- have them.

arrived In Sistersville last night to
tro and arrange monster free
street fair and carnival under the
auspices of the local lodge of Eiks
for the week of May 23rd and 1t Is
certainly hoped that the gentleman
will succeed In his efforts.
1t Is we'll known fact that street
fairs possess strong commercial
value They are the incentors of
trade by bringing 10 a city daily
large contingent of strangers and
excursionists. The legitimate
spenders of money-who, taking
advantage of the reduced rates of
fered by railroads and boats for
such an affair come In to do their
purchasing and see the great show
as well-thus trade Is benefited,
and there Is still another issue to
prove why street fairs are benefi-
cial. 1t Is the boom" which 1t
gives to place. 1t shows push,
enterprised pluck. The very iun-
damental principles of success. . 1t
makes the world know that cities
are on the map-7and that the BUSH
ness community are ready with the
goods for delivery. 1s5n3.0
Ed It Is to be hoped that the mer-
chants will heartily co operate with
the Elks In this matter and put
their shoulders to the wheel, In
every way, as SO much depends rp-
on them In decorations. trade di =
