BUTLER is the genial proprietor, and is
an old hotel man of several years ca
%perience, and has built up a large
trade in his line of business. Mr..
Butler claims Indiana as his native
state, and his boyhood days were
spent upon a farm. He came west to
Minnesota in 1856, and to this county
in 1880, and was a general merchant
up to twelve years ago, when he en-
gagged in the hotel business. Two
years ago he bought out this hotel,
and has made many improvements.
The hotel is nicely arranged, with
Office and sample on ground
floor for the accommodation of the
commercial trade, pleasant parlor and
a piano and a large dining-room that
will comfortably sea- fifty guests.
Miss BUTLER, the young lady in charge
of this part of the house, is a good
waiter and a most accommodating
person at all times. This hotel is
equal to any $2-a-day hotel in the
country, and they have an expert
lady cook. What can be more salts
factory to the inner man than fresh,
juicy meats and vegetables well pre-
pared and seasoned, rich pastry, a
good cup of tea or coffee is surely
all that the most fastidious could de-
sire, excepting a good Havana cigar,
which can also be obtained in this
house. In connection with the hotel
is a bar. Free bus to and from all
trains, and the travelling public. be
he a commercial man or a land hust-
Ter, will find this hotel a home-like
place to stop, and special rates given
to land buyers. This hotel is head
quarters for land buyers, who know
where they can get the best accommo-
dations for the least money. Mr.. and
Mrs. BUTLER are not only popular as
host and hostess of this good hotel,
but they also take an active part in
the commercial and charitable doings
of the town, and are among the heavi.
est tax payers of city property in the
town. The Commercial Hotel is a
credit to Big Stone City, and we are
pleased to note it enjoys a most hearty
patronage under it's present manage
ment ind ownership.
T. F. FORSYTH.
Among the popular business mer
who are worthy of more than a pass
ing notice, and one who has done
much for the town by reason of his
long residence, is the subject of GU
sketch. Mr.. Forsyth was born ant
raised in the wheat fields of Wiscon
sin, but came to his county nine
years ago and followed the occupa
ton OF a farmer, and later sold on.
and moved to this city, where he en-
gagged in a general store.
BUILDING.

of the company. The brick manufac-
tured here is of an excellent quality.
1t is not good policy to build business
houses from anything but brick or
stone, and the quality of brick to be
obtained here is not only a desirable
building material but a cheap one as
we'll. This firm is one of the most
reliable and substantial business firms
in northeastern South Dakota.

We may talk about the butter our

low rolls that make your mouth water

our mothers did make good butter
