Some wise philosopher once assert
ed that mems hearts could best be
reached through their stomachs. and
since 1t is the effort of every good
housewife TO reach the hearts OF it's
inmates, ii is but natural that her
heart is reached through the grocery
and provision houses affordinS the
highest quality Of good things to eat
along WITH tho best OF trading tactl-
files. This probably in large meas
ure accounts for the success OF Nor
gan's Grocery, one Of the best and
most attractive OF the grocery and
provision houses in the city. and one
where quality and service are placed
first.
Morgan's Grocery is located Mt 4O5
Main street and has been in exist

Quoted the business on his own ac-

the reputation of the store at the top.
His stocks include the Ferndcll brand
Of table dclicacics, while he handles

mers many of the most discrimtnat-

treated SO honorably and sQuareiy
with his cutomers until he is en-
abled to hold them. once they start

sNYDER's BAKERY.
Deserving Home Institution.


AS n rule the people OF Fairmont
are most loyal to home institutions
and especially when these instttu-
lions are fully deserving and up to
the best standards. This true, our
home people should certainly make
demand through their grocers for the
pure food products which are made
locally, and especially the baked goods
which come from Snyder's Bakery.
This bakery may not be the largest
institution in the city, in fact, 1t en-
rloys Just five bakers. but there Is
no bakery in the country which Is
turning out more perfectly baked
goods, or Which is more careful IN
securing the very best Of materials
to go into the ''makings." Then Thu
bakery Is, just as deserving oil home
patronage as is the largest manufac
turing institution in the city, for II
is contributing its mite in making
the city. And who will say that We
have more deserving institutions
than those engaged as snyder's Bak
cry in turning out pure, deltciou
products for the table?
