Tie attention that has been devoted
to the production of fine furniture in
this country reveals the fact that
American inventive genius and me-
chanical ability are quite as successful
in this line as they are in many others.
AS proof of this we make direct ref
erence to the Tilton-Phelps Furniture
company, who are successors to the
furniture department of the Wisconsin
Furniture and Coffin company. This
company is turning out a grade of
furniture that is being well received.
This institution is strictly a home en-
terprise, employing good many men,
and is an enterprise in good favor
with all Lincoln people. The propri-
etors of this company are men known
for their positive attitude in all mat
ters of good business policy. They
are thoroughly practical men in the
furniture line, and to become con-
WINGED that Lincoln is producing as
fine furniture as can be turned out i'll
the world it is only necessary to take
walk through this plant. Here may
be found everything in the very finest
to medium grades of parlor, bedroom,
dining room and kitchen furniture
in fact, everything to furnish the house
complete. This firm is always foremost
in any movement for a greater Lin
coin, and has done much for our city.

EVANS LAUNDRY, 327-2e-31 NORTH
TWELFTH STREET.,

During the past few years the laun-
dry business has been revolutionized
by the introduction of improved ma
chinery. The Evans Laundry COM
pany's progress in this line has been
evidenced in the model equipped
steam laundry operated by them at
327-29-31 North Twelfth street. Equip
ment, skilled labor and prompt service
are features of this well known laun-
dry. And noteworthy consideration
is that none but the best supplies are
used In laundering clothes. Expert
enced hands are employed Delivery

busy all the time. Personal attention
is given to all details. Organized la
Dor can always rely on The Evans

CASTLE, ROPER G. MATTHEWS.

If there is one business more than
another that requires for it's success
full prosecution a large amount of fine
taste, delfcacy of thought and express
sion toward its patrons, and tender
respect and regard for their feelings,
it is that of the funeral director We
refer with pleasure in this respect to
Castle, Roper & Matthews, located at
100 to 124 South Thirteenth street, who
have a wide prestige among the fami-
lies of the wage earners of this city.
These gentlemen stand uneXcelled in
this particular profession. They take
charge of funerals from the time of
death until the interment, and never
fail to give perfect satisfaction. They
have the good will and the patronage
of wage earners and other good peo-
pie of Lincoln. This firm has on many
occasions manifested a most friendly
interest in the cause, of labor We take
this occasion of placing the name of
this firm before the friends of orga-
nized labor.

does automobile repairing and lock

short, he does all kinds of repair work
along these lines. Mr.. Parker has a
warm spot in his heart for the union
man, having been one of them himself
for many years. Union men should
foster and encourage such friendly

n. p. LAU CO., WHOLESALE GRoc

This is the representative wholesale
house of Lincoln. They occupy one OF
the best buildings in the city, carry all
the wholesale grocery catalogue in
cludes, and are widely known as manu-
facturers of the celebrated Lau Brand
Products. They manufacture unadul-
terated spices, mustards, baking pow
der and extracts, and are known as the
finest coffee roasters in the west. The
growth of this business in the face OF
strong competition has been the most
rapid of any of it's kind in this coun-
try. This company is known through
out this and adjoining states for the
superior goods they handle. The H.
p. Lau Co. not only adyertises Lincoln
as manufacturing and commercial
center, but it brings many thousands
of dollars to the city every week. This
is a .home institution and wage
earners should demand the products
sold by this company. So too, should
every Lincoln citizen. The object of
this movement is to explain the rea-
sons why we should patronize home
industry. 1t Is carefully estimated that

nually over seven million dollars, and
much of this tremendous total leaves

coin. The proposition that confronts
both labor and the merchant is a legi-
innate preference for Lincoln people.
What we want to do is to impress on
the minds of every citizen of Lincoln
that every time you buy a package of
Lau Twentieth Century Coffee you
help to build up Lincoln. This coffee
is roasted and packed in this city and
is sold by all the leading grocers. Why
pay more than twenty cents for a
pound of coffee when you can buy Lau
Coffee at this price and get a product
that is fresh roasted and guaranteed
to give satisfaction? This company
employees seventy-five men. They have
been in business since 1870. The H. p.
Lau company is always foremost in
any movement for a greater Lincoln
age than any one firm we know of.
This company also owns the Lincoln
Coffee and Spice Mills, which is an
other one of our large industries. The
H. p. Lau company ranks among our
biggest taxpayers, and we should fos-
ter and encourage such institutions.
Consider this proposition seriously,
and demand the H. p. Lau products.
