there was need of a plumbing house where
the public would receive unvaryng court
esy, where the capital and facilities were
ample and where the work would receive
careful attention, conscientious, skilled
workmanship and every undertaking would
be backed by true guarantee-and that
guarantee religiously adhered to. No ex-
pense has been spared to the attainment or
this end. The business has been divided
into departments and at the head or each

but discriminating buyer, who prefers 10
