Just a few words to those desir-
ing mason work done of any kind.
The bottom has fallen out of the
prices you used to pay. You can
now have your houses %plastered
for 9 cents per yard, two coats,
and your sidewalks, the old style
with cheap John bottoms and a
top one-half sand and one-half
cement for Z cents per square foot
or the better one for 10 cents a
foot. That is, made all alike from
the top to the bottom, and no top
to scale off. Get a good one once
and you won't have to build again.
Cellars concerted very reasonable
and other kinds of mason work,
such as stone, brick or concrete
foundations, bungalows, ohimneys
and cisterns, SO any one can have
a good one and anybody wanting
a square deal call on K. S. Honey
we'll. I will tell you what it is
worth to do your work whether |
do the job or not.
