Election Results.
Everything Points to Four Years More of Good Service at the Hampson-SeIlew
 Store.

Whichever way you think the cleo ton ought to have gone everybody is of the one opinion about the Han1psoI- SelIew Furniture Company, and that is that you can buy better furniture there for less money than at any other store in the state that the stocks are larger and kept better-that everyone re ceives the most courteous treatment that every salesman is thoroughly in terested in giving each customer the best results Deliveries are prompter from this store better service all through.
 New H0usekeepers should bear the above facts in mind when they are about to furnish their new home.
 Those $45 Chamber Suits continue to be the favoyites. They'n wonderfully good values. All quar- tered oak in the golden finish, made from selected stock, HAND-rubbed and polished, finished equal to any suit from $75.0O to $100.OO, extra well made drawer work, swell front Bureau and CommOde and patterned French Plate Mirror. This is that special suit that the Hampson- Sellew Company has been having such sale on and it's easy to understand why it is so suc- cessful when you see the suit. There are upwards of fifty other suits on that big fourth floor. Just fancy sixteen thousand square feet of floor space and what that looks like. That's the size of the fourth floor, just one-haIf or the thirty-two thousand feet all told in this immense furniture establishment, and to-day it's packed with furniture of every description. It's regular exposition. Out of town shipments are a common thing with this store. It's a common thing for visitors to Water bury to make purchases there to be shipped sometimes hundreds of miles away.
 Couch Covers
 There's an elegant line to choose from at the Hampson- Sellew1 store. Something finer and different from the ordinary kinds and at most reason- able prices considering the fine qual1- ties and designs. Prices $2.50 to $7.5o-
 Pictures
 No store in Waterbury shows as Handsome or, large a line as the Hamp- on-Sellew Company. A few new pie lures on your walls will make your home prettier than ever. Go in and select a few while the assortment is large.
 Mirrors for All Uses
 Large and small sizes for hanging in bathrooms, railways, sitting rooms and parlors. Large Cheval Mirrors that you can see the full length in
 Glenwo0d Ranges at less prices than elsewhere in New England at the Waterbury agency, the ssampson-Sellew Furniture Company, aao-120 Bank street.

The fruit grown in summer is Of higher

garrison. and the resident people-some
over 1900 all told-are fond Of the fruit.
