WARNING

Notice is hereby given to those per-
sons who deliberately try to damage my
business by making false and damaging
remarks regarding the construction of
the houses which I built last year. It
has been stated that I placed inferior
material in these houses also that these
houses are poorly constructed and on
that account are very cold in winter.
| wish to state that my houses are con-
structed as well as the best houses in
this city. I have built 10 houses of
which 10 have been sold and are now
occupied by satisfied owners. I refer
all those persons who desire to know the
truth about how my houses are con-
lstructed to the purchasers of these houses.
Anyone of the ten owners will say that
the houses are built out of first class
material and by experienced workmen.
Out Of the 18 houses all but 8 are lined
with Flax Linum, which is one of the
best warming. materials which can be
bought on the open market. Therefore,
| if in the future hear of any person
making false and damaging remarks
concering these houses will go into
court and make him prove his statements,
