Many years ago Mr. Stone became
a stockholder and officer of the we'll
known, firmly established Bush &
Gerts Piano Company of Chicago,
where the celebrated Stone Piano Co.
pianos are being manufactured in
large quantities to supply the demand.
In recent years the Stone Player
Piano has also been put on the mar
ket and is enjoying a wonderful sue
cess.
The great success of this company
has been brought about by it's hon
and from the fact that it has always
dealt in the best makes of pianos and
other musical instruments. 1t was Mr..
Stones policy from the first to sell
nothing that he did not absolutely
know was reliable, and to stand back
of every instrument with guarantee
that is good. The house is now han
ding the celebrated SteinWay and
Pianola pianos in conjunction with
the largest line of fine instruments
carried anywhere in the United States,
and its slogan is Everything Known
in Music, and the best of everything
for the least money, quality consid
cred. The Northwest and Fargo are
to be congratulated upon having such
a live, honest firm in their midst,
firm whose motto has always been
square deal to all, whose thousands of
friends are its customers and whose
customers are it's friends They know
they are protected and getting the
best value for the money when they
deal with the reliable Stone Piano

KEY CITY LAUNDRY.

The key to the situation is here.
At least the means to do away with a
lot of that home scrubbing and unnec-
essary labor. The Key City Laundry
points the way out of the difficulty.
This laundry is ready for all manner
of work, no matter whether rough
dry, shirts, collars, pillow shams, over
alls, or lingerie, it's all the same to
this place, for each and every piece
receives its full quota of attention and
comes back in immaculate purity and
whiteness. An express and parcel
post business is conducted in this
connection and has made great hit
with those who live some distance
away and are thus accommodated.
Three delivery teams are busy during
the day and evening in their distribu-
ton work from the SO by l25 build
ing and basement where twcnty-six
men and women do the regeneration
process. The wheels of cleanliness
first began to rcvolvc here i'll 1894,
and have continued ever since. Try
them once for either a domestic or
gloss finish. It'll make you feel bet
ter and your clothes look better.
Shirt, collar and cuff work is spe-
cialty.

A. L. WALL.

There's something in a name And
SO it is in the case of Mr.. A. L. Wall,
who is a dealer in lumber, and oc-
cupying one-half of a block for the
business, extending from the corner
of Front Street and Twelfth Street
South in an even spread each way.
Some walls stand long time and this
Mr.. A. l.. is no exception, for he has
stood the stress of life and business
for some thirty-three years right here
in Fargo. The present firm has been
in existence sixteen years Lumber
and building material for both rough
construction and interior finish, doors,
windows, and other manufactured
lumber to meet both city and country
demand together with a sincere ef-
fort to fulfill local requirements in
the best possible fashion have all
initiated towards successful and
conservativcly growing business. If
you are thinking of putting down a
new flooring, erecting barn, shin
Cling. putting in some hardwood intc-
rior finishings, or just some minor re-
pair work about the premises, give
Mr. Wall call.

THE DOBLE co.

The Doble Company went into busl-
ness one year ago last January, IN
wholesale notions and mems furnishings.
Today it has radius of territory COM
prising all of the state of North Dakota
and running from Fargo to Vincent on
the Great Northern, and Fargo to
Watertown on the Northern Pacific.
Three men are kept on the road and
five in the house. The building which
is stocked runs fifty feet by one hum
dred in dimensions and has two floors.
A unique feature with regard to this
company lies in the fact that all of its
four officers are men who have not only
had wide experience in other firms but
three of the four are still so connected.
Mr.. c. O. Smith, president of the COM
pany, is with the North Dakota Harness
Co.; C. O. Follet, vice president, is
with the Fargo Mercantile Company;
A. C. Crowell, secretary, is of the Park
Grant & Morris Co., while w. C. Doble,
treasurer and manager, was formerly
with Lindke, Warner & Sons, and Wy
man, Partridge & Co., of Minneapolis.
This breadth and variety of experience
makes this company especially strong
when one considers the fact that four
men each successful in his own busi-
ness can arrange to give the benefit of
their knowledge in affording impetus to
a new firm. The firm has adopted the
North Dakota Brand" for their trade
mark and it looks especially we'll and
significant.

CARLISLE & BRISTOL.

In July, 1912, Carlisle & Bristol
succeeded M. R. O'Neill in a general
hardware business conducted at 81
Broadway. And the snug, well-found-
ed business left by the retiring firm
has kept up to all expectations, and
Messrs. Carlisle and Bristol wish to
thank these patrons for their con-
tinuance in trade A speciality is made
Of Corbin's Builders Hardware, while
splendid line of Radiant Home
Stoves, and Majestic Steel Ranges are
always in stock. Both a wholesale
and a retail business is maintained
with success and with the prosperous
country round about in which their
business radiates, the new firm feels
well satisfied with the business out
look, the way it has held up and con-
ditions in general. Mr.. Frank J. Car
Isle is president of the concern and
Fred A. Bristol, Jr., secretary and
treasurer A well-chosen line of the

W. o. OLSEN N FURNITURE

The home of Lifetime Furniture.
And the quality of the furniture
handled has had an ample time in
which to test itself out for the firm
of w. O.. Olsen Furniture Co. has
been in business for over thirty years.
Therefore it stands to reason that
they should know pretty near
what is good, substantial and endur-
ing furniture when combined with
tasty appearance and all around
quality. Besides the furniture an ex-
tensive and lavish line of rugs and
carpets is kept in stock. The store
building at 211 Broadway is of three
stories and has for dimensions 75x
13O, which leaves ample room for car
rying of stock and display rooms.
w. O. Olsen, J. J. Nelson, A. Olsen,

D. S. LEWIS.

Almost everyone in this part of the
country knows where to procure their
hay, flour and feed, seed grain, and gar
den seeds. Likewise those who have to
sell know where the right shop is to
do business. 1t has been fifteen years
since Mr.. Lewis first made arrangements
to go into the seed business A large
share of the trade in Fargo and the
vicinity goes to Mr.. Lewis each year.
His business has been built upon the
solid rock of treating everyone with
equality and consideration and it must
be said that this method appears to have
richly repaid for its use. Alfalfa, baled
hay, straw, poultry preparations, linseed
meal, bran, shorts, ground feed and an
especially fine line of garden seeds can
be had by calling at 312 N. P. Ave-
nue., by delivery, and by phone. Every
thing handled at this store is the prod
uct of long experience in what is best
adapted to certain conditions and the
assurance is we'll worth your business.

store and office at 10 South Third
street, Grand Forks, N. D.
There has probably been no in
stance in the history of the piano
trade where personality, representing
energy, shrewd business ability and
close application to business has at
tanned such phenomenal success and
substantial reward as is represented
in the history of the Stone Piano
company, the great music emporium
of the Northwest territory, located at
Fargo, N. D., with fine branch store
at Grand Forks, N. D.
Mr.. C. R. Stone, like most success
full men, began at the bottom round
of the ladder and drifted into the nlu-
sic business through his natural aptl-
tude for, and knowledge of, music,
attained during his early life in and
around Crown Point, Ind, where he
was born in January, 1865. At the
age of thirteen he had organized and
conducted juvenile band at Hebron,
Ind, with great success, and IN 1880,
after teaching music in Minneapolis
for several months, entered the en-
ploy of music concern as sales
man, advancing rapidly to a position
of general salesman, which he held
for several years. He resigned IN
1894 and established himself in busl-
ness at Fargo, corner Of First avenue
and Broadway. The rapid growth of
his business soon compelled him to
move into more commOdious quar-
ters at ITO Broadway, which IN three
years he had outgroWn, and proceeded
to erect fine and complete estab-
lshment of three floors, 5Oxl2O feet
on First avenue north.
Again outgrowing this store, he
then proceeded to erect on First ave-
nue. north, across from the old loca-
ton, what is now the finest and most
com plete and up-to-date music house
in the entire Northwest, building
5Ox15O, four floors, or $4,000 square
feet of floor space, all finished in oak,
plate glass and marble, with com.
pletely finished, we'll lighted and well
ventilated basement, in the front end
of which are soundprOof, finely I'm
ished floors for the various lines OF
talking machines and graphophones,
where an immense line of machines
and records are being displayed, and
where the customers can test the d1f-
ferent machines and make their Sc
lection in quiet privacy. Here is also
an immense selection of P1anola
PLAYER rolls, and a large display OF
pianos. :,
On the first floor are eight beautiful
sound-proof piano rooms, the large
sheet music department and in the
rear, the general offices.
The second floor contains some
more beautiful piano display rooms
and the finest recital hall in the North
west, seating 500 people, in which
many artists recitals and concerts
are held during the winter.
On the third floor is the most COM
plete piano repair shop in the North
west, where entire pianos are rebuilt
