Leading the

Whenever Topeka has a
Civic Parade our buggies
are always at the head of
the procession. The ques-
ton is easily answered.
The best always leads.
They are not only nobby

are highly finished in ev-
cry respect and nobody is
ashamed to take the lead
when they are riding in
our rigs. We have put
them in the lead and we
are going to keep them
there. So if you want to
lead and not follow the
procession, be an up to
date and a top notcher.
Come around to our fac
tory and ware rooms and
pick out what you want,
either a bike, wagon, run
about, surrey or phaeton.
We have an ideal assert
ment, why not get one
now, then you will have

there is anything goes
wrong, we are here to
make good.
