DAVIDSON BROTHERS
Dealers in Groceries, Meats, Provi-
sions, Etc.-Located at 700
East Heron Street,
Across the Bridge

The store carrying large stock
Of fresh groceries, meats, provisions,
food products and Offering induce
ments in the form of variety and low
prices, is always attractive to the
housewife, and such an establishment
is the one operated by Davidson Bros,
700 East Heron street. Believing that
the very best methods, and sanitary
improvements would be appreciated
by the people of Aberdeen, Davidson
Brothers established this business.
Here customers are assured of the
most wholesome food products and
the business has grown to large pro-
portions because of the choice stock
carried, and the progressive methods
of the proprietors. This is one of the
best kept and most attractive con-
Germs of the kind in it's line in Abb
erdeen-a model of cleanliness, fresh
ness of provisions Of all kinds. They
deal in groceries, meats, graniteware,
aluminium ware, hay, feed, and pro-
duce of all kinds. They buy their
stock in large quantities for cash and
are enabled to sell at "rock bottom
prices, and to meet all competition.
There are three brothers connected
with the firm, namely F. w. David
son, president and general manager;
F. c. Davidson, secretary and treas
urer, and L. G. Davidson.
Davidson Brothers, we might add
give special attention to mail orders,
and along this line they enjoy sub
stantial trade. Their phone is %.
This is the kind of store a child
can trade at as we'll as grown per-
son. They are a house that stands
high in all the relationship of life.
The store has been established fifteen
years, six of which have been under
the present firm, and few concerns
here enjoy the favors of the buying
public in a more marked degree.
JOE THOMAS, 119 West Heron
street, conducts the Economy Quick
Repair Shoe Shop. He has been a
resident of the harbor for seventeen
years and is we'll known. Probably
no young man in Aberdeen attends
more faithfully to his duties, and at
the same time, devotes his spare mo-
ments to self-improvement, and edu-
eating himself than this gentleman.
This was the way Lincoln did. 1t Is
the way Columbus did. 1t is the way
most all great leaders have done.
Mr.. Thomas is an exceedingly well
informed business man to meet. He
is courteous and polite to all. His
shoe shop is well equipped with mod
ern machinery for quick repair
work" and he is kept on the go most
all the time. 1t takes live hustling
these days to win but Mr.. Thomas
is a skilled workman, puts heart and
soul into his efforts and leaves no
stone unturned to please each and
every patron. His shop is on Heron
street, near the Washington hotel.
Personally, Mr.. Thomas is progress
i've from the word GO" PROGRESS
is his watchword for one and all.

Quality in commercialism, like good

longevity When a commercial firm
has established it's reputation in the
eyes Of the public as a house of quail

ercise foresight in planning future
campaigns. Prudence, honesty and
carefulness in all it's dealings are
factors which have enabled the Grays
Harbor Ship Chandlery Company to
maintain it's standing in the business
world and it's management adheres
to these principles in every transac-
ton. The business was established
seven years ago and today this COM

The Woman's Municipal league is
making propaganda for cleaner city
by disseminating information about
the rules and regulations which we
would follow if we tried to be law
abiding citizens. 1t Is divided into sec
tons. each of which is captained and
organized like separate county in a
state and through which the work is
being done. One Of the most recent
activities of the league was the meas
uring of ash cans. which revealed IA
very distressing state of affairs-to
wit, that the greater number wee
diversified and only imposed upon the
city's ash can bumper harder task
than his should be.

PlNNICK G. KENNY, Funeral Di
rectors, 116 East Wishkah street
come in for special mention as We
are noting Who's Who in Aberdeen.
Undertaking is a delicate and diff
cult business for which few men are
fitted, as it requires a great deal of
Judgment and discretion, but these
gentlemen are we'll adapted to this
line in every way. They take COM
plete charge of funerals and perform
obsequies in any style desired, and
can be relied on implicitly. BY en-
ergy, we'll directed effort and enter
prise they are developing connec-
ton which is very creditable to them
AS embalmers they are well up in the
art, and they are ably assisted by C.
B. Conway, also an expert in the
various branches Of the profession.
They carry a nice stock of caskets,
burial requisites and night. as well
as day calls, are given prompt at
tention. These gentlemen inspire
confidence at first meeting and are
recognized as absolutely honorable.
Mr. Pinnick is manager of the par
lors at Hoquiam, 422 Fourth street,
and Mr.. Kenny superintendent the
business here in Aberdeen at 116
East Wishkah. Since opening up
here less than three months ago they
have performed interments for sever
al persons who have passed from our
midst. A new innovation, all auto
mobiles, including hearse, we might
add, was the very modern and unique
funeral from the Pinnick & Kenny
undertaking parlors at the burial of
Mrs. Carlson recently. This was the
first of the kind on Grays Harbor and
this firm takes pride in being up-tO-
date even when the dear departed are
being carried to their last resting
places. Mr.. Pinnick is we'll known
and Mr.. Kenny was in this line from
18S8-1S99 in San Francisco and was
the prime mover in that great metro
politan city to establish the first pub
lie morgue, when DR.. O'Donnell was
coroner. 1t should also be added that
lady attendant embalmer here looks
after the women's and children's bod
les, and who gives special attention
to this branch of the undertaking
business of this firm.
