THE NORBY.SOLUM co,

Buyers and shippers of farm prod
uce. This is the department upon
which this firm focuses deal of it's at
tention, although strictly speaking, it
is only one of the smaller sides of
the business. The stock is general
merchandise one, and one that fully
lives up to it's reputation of being
clean, high grade stock in all partic-
ulars. Dry goods, notions, hats,
caps, gentlemen's furnishings, CLOTH
ing, ladies' ready to wear garments,
shoes for ladies, gents, and children,
a very acceptable line of gentlemen's
haberdashery, dress goods, prints,
laces, silks, corsets, gloves, handker-
chiefs, and ladies' ready to wear gar
ments. Then in the grocery depart
ment, there is staple and fancy stock,
vegetables, fruits and the very best
the market can show in teas and cof-
fees. The highest market prices are
paid for the farm produce on which
so much attention is focused, and the
trade in this particular is unusually
large and one of constantly growing
tendencies. The city of Barnesville
has several stores of class consider
ably above the average, and this is
one of them. City and country trade
alike, finds its way into The Norby-
Solum Company store, and it is pretty
average certain that once there it will
repeat many times.

CITIZENS STATE BANK.

-Four years have elapsed since the
Citizens State Bank of GAINESVILLE
came into existence These four years
have been we'll marked with progress
and growth in the confidence of the
banking community in and around this
city. A general land loaning business
is done, and with the advent of the
new settler, an impetus of no small
value is his portion when dealing with
this institution, which strives at all
times to serve the country's best in
terests. Farm loans, real estate sales,
insurance, travellers checks, drafts,
safety deposit boxes, and the attend
ing to each and every customers in
dividual wants have all come in for
fair share in the prosecution of the
banking business. The three cardinal
points upon which this institution lays
great emphasis are security, courtesy
and service, and the bank has to date
fallen short in none of them, but has
on the other hand won many friends
in the operation of it's policy. The
bank is oficered as follows: ]. S.
Ulland, president; w. S. Atkinson,
vice president; w. S. Lee, cashier.
The individual deposits are building
up in nice style, and this is always a
pertinent indication of a banks con-
dition and it's regard in the patrons
estimation.

FORSYTHE & GLASGOW.

Successor to Kiefer's Hardware, the
firm of Forsythe & Glasgow has now
been in business for somewhat over
two years. Shelf and heavy hardware
goods of all descriptions are handled,
and the stock includes guns, ammuni-
ton, wall paper, paints, oils, heating
and gas ranges, carpenters tools, gar
den tools, Monarch and Quick Meal
ranges, Radiant Home Heaters, wash
ing machines, American fence wire,
cutlery, and all that could we'll be con-
ceived as having home in a hardware
store. Tinsmithing is likewise done
surprisingly we'll, and either odd jobs,
or contract work can be had at any
time. Mr.. A. D. Forsythe, and Mr..
James Glasgow, Jr., are the two full
names of the partners in this COM
pany. The sporting goods stock
shows a choice selection of bats of
varying weight and thickness, base
balls of all prices, felders' mitts,
catchers' mitts, first baseman's mitts,
and tennis, golf, and football supplies,
of different grades, gymnasium shoes,
Indian clubs, chest machines, punch

retailing for a goodly number of
years. A general line of building ma
terial, lumber in the rough unfinished,
mill finished in sashes, doors, mould
ing, and silo and cupola material;
brick, plaster, cement and the like.
Mr.. Meyer is also in the real estate
business, and handles insurance as
we'll. He has fine list of farm lands
for sale, which can be bought at very
reasonable terms. He would be very
glad to communicate with anyone who
is thinking of coming to this fine
agricultural section. Mr.. C. Meyer
will show you the land, and Boltz &
Meyer will build your farm or city
dwelling for you. All kinds of build
ing material, adapted to meet this Sec

its advantages.

that comes with legitimate dealing and
a we'll satisfied trade which wakes
greater as the years roll by. This is
one of Barnesville's biggest stores and
is one of decidedly general stock
and supply. Dry goods, hats, caps,
shoes, groceries and clothing are some
of the departments. A full line of
goods is carried in every department.
A speciality is being made of ladies'
ready to wear garments, out of which
a special department is being created.
This is meeting with decided favor
among Barnesville's populace and that
of the adjacent farming community.
This is cash store, first, last and all
the time. For this reason the T.
Guinness Company feels that it can
we'll afford giving better value for the
same money than other emporiums of
similar nature. Produce is bought or
exchanged, and the highest market
prices are always paid. The officers of
the company are as follows: F. L.
Wortham, president; S. T. Wiprud,
vice PRESIDENT; and J. L. Wortham,
secretary and treasurer The goods
in this store are we'll displayed, and
no expense is spared in making the
entire store one of attractiveness and
facility for the buyer.
