MARSHALL ICE TALKS
This Year Our Company is Entering
Upon Its Thirtieth Consecutive Year
in the Ice Business in This City.

It is record one may feel Justly
proud Of and one that few other Mar
shalltown business firms can lay claim
to. That we have been successful is
due largely to the fact that during all
this time we have kept in touch with
the wants Of the people-always giving
them the best ice on the market at the
lowest possible price, honest weights
and courteous treatment.
Our motto has always been ito live
and let live" believing that fair compe-
tition is the life of trade. However,
during many of these years we have
had no competition, but our prices and
our manner of doing business has been
such that we have never been accused
of a monopoly.
We cut our ice from the Iowa river
no surface water enters it, when its
flow is kept up by springs, and its wa
ter is as clear as a crystal. Last win
ter was an ideal winter for our harvest,
and this year we have an enormous
amount of exceptionally fine clear ice,
and second to none in it's various quail
tiles.
Repeated analysis at various times
has always proven our Iowa river ice
as nearly absolutely pure as can be
made by nature or any device man
ever invented.
Our prices this year will remain the
same as those of former years, that is
80 cents per hundred pounds in any
quantity desired.
Telephone US your orders and they
will receive prompt attention.

MANY COSTLY GIFTS
An Unprecedented Business in We'd
ding and Birthday Gifts at Sinclair's
People Buying Nicer Gifts Than


Usual.
Probably more wedding presents,
birthday gifts, etc, are bought at Sin
ciair's than elsewhere, and that peo-
pie generally appreciate the opportun-
ity which such large store affords in
the matter of selection and price, is
shown by the fact that the business
done at this store in this line in 1907
has Seclipsed Il at of any former year.
Sinclair says he has never sold so
many and such nice wedding presents
and birthday gifts since he has been
in business. The principal reason,
aside from the general prosperity, he
ascribes to the fact that he carries
such a large and complete line of the
best and most carefully selected rich
cut glass and fine china. When you
buy present you like to have a large
and varied line to select from, and Sin
clair carries more cut glass and china
than is carried by any other similar
house in the state.
This glass was selected personally
by Mr.. Sinclair while in the factory in
the east, and consists of all the latest
and nobbiest pieces at reasonable
prices. When you are called upon to
select a wedding present, don't fail to
visit SINCLAIR'S.
