OTIS a Hard Life "

We often hear some pessimist wall
in this wise. But the fact of the mat
ter is, he isn't far wrong. He refers to
hardware and there is lots of that in
life. Good hardware must stand hard
wear, and that's why we have the best.
Everything from jacknife to pillow,
an axe to a paddock can be had here
at the right price. Bring us your
troubles and we will try to help you
out. We feel better after we have
helped someone. Our hardware stock
includes, little and big, a full assort-
ment of tools and useful articles.
