In the principal cities of the coun-

genuity is displayed in the erection of
ornamental filling stations, and they
add much to city's appearance.
The design and finish of these filling
stations have almost become class
to themselves.
Mr.. r. S. Hall has plans for one of
these stylish up to date stations,
which will be erected on the lot in the
rear of the Harrington Hall hctel, and
for beauty and convenience it will be
the equal of any anywhere.

completed there will be two filling sta.
