A little sensible advice we gave a few weeks age appears to have stirred up a horaet's nest, in the fertile brain of No 13 He becomes personal and calls us the "Most Ancient," which is not nice for a first clt.ss correspondent to say about a fellow laborer. But any person that thinks the mile that intervenes between the residence of Mrs. Lane and Frank Bagby's is only sixty rods is certainly excusable for any minor mistakes in reckoning distance, and perhaps by the same course of reckoning he gets the three miles between his residence and Mrs. Lane's residence so contracted that he considers her one of his nearest neighbors.

WHY NOT HAVE THE BEST?

IT COSTS NO MORE THAN THE CHEAPEST.

1 lie best selling heating stove is the one whose merit is so patent and striking as to commend itself at a glance to the intelligent buyer.

We claim the UMPIRK ESTATES to be such stoves and the claim is fully warranted by their noteworthy improvements .«..

Xheii excellent 111.illties were quickly recognized by the trade last year, and the stoves took at once a leading position in tlie market and found their places in the homes of the people in the different parts ot the county.

Built upon scientific principles, their extraordinaiy fire keeping qualities, elements of air tightness, fuel sa\ing capacity, control of fire and rapid heating, and duiability of the materials used, all combine in making them perfect stoves.

Exercise for a moment your own mechanical judgment, apply it to a critical examination and comparison as between the construction of the UMPJRE and others of this type of heaters, and your verdict will, we are suie, be that reached by the experience of those who have already bought and we kindly ask you to call at 0111 store and examine it and you will be convinced it is the finest Wool Heater you ever saw.

Our line of Cook Stoves and other styles of Heaters consist of the best makes that can be bought. Our slock of FURNITURE, CARPETS and HARDWARE is always up to date.
