REVELATION TO THE PUBLIC.

The superior manner in which Hon.
A. N. Johnson handles funerals en-
trusted to his care; the skill employed
in embalming; the almost perfect and
faultless service from the time he is
called in until the service is COM
pleted at the cemetery, has been a
revelation to the public and source
of comment on the part of critical PEG
pie who desire as perfect service as
is possible. This superior service
simply has outdistanced competition
and Mr.. Johnson stands in a class en-
tirely alone. Thinking people, those
highly critical, the indepenle nt kind
of folks who want the best of every
thing from the beginning and no eX-
cuses, are calling in Mr. Johnson to
serve Them and besides they are pro
fuse in telling how well they are
pleased. Ask any person who has had
his service, or any who have seen his
service and get their word. Thorough
ly experienced, eminently competent
painstaling in every detail, well poised
and thoughtful, disnified and correct
he is seen at a glance as an artist
in the profession. The people are
therefore supporting that business, be
cause it has been a necessity in the
community for long, long time anC
he is worthy of the public patronage
because of the superior and unequalleC
service.
