Experience Counts.

In no business does experience coant for more to both the dealer and the customer than in the implement business. Experience enables the dealer to know the value of goods, he can see at a glance whether they are artistic and will please a discriminating customer in a word whether they will satisfy buyers by giviug first class service. This same experience enables him to buy right. Then he can SELL right. It is his large experience coupled with his thorough knowledge of the business that has made Chas. A. Roberts the Front street buggy man so deservidly popular with the discriminating buyers of sightly vehicles. He served his time in a carriage shop way back iu the 60s when an apprentice had to know his business before ha could begin work for himseld. He put in seventeen years of his life building and repairing wagons and carriages and can make every piece in them. He began to sell implements in 1882 and every customer gets the benefit of his long experience every time he shows a vehicle. That is worth something isn’t it! He sells Studebaker and Page Bros, carriages and buggies and there are no better, and he has some other makes and styles. Studebaker tar in wagon he claims there are none so good. Success return apron or Litchfield Endless Apron Manure Spreaders. They ARE BOTH ALL RIGHT. McCormick Binders and Mowers, you all know what they are, and Grain King Shoveling Boards and there are more of them sold here than or any other make. Yon are going to need some of these articles this year and you will always regret it if you do not go and see Roberts and see his goods before yon buy. Paste this in your hat so yon won’t forget to go. He will do the rest when you land. Don’t forget t_e place on Front Street and the uame Chas. A. Roberts, The Bag gy Man. , Take the fresh, air cure in a Roberts Rig of your own. If you want the host for the least money buy of C. A. Roberts, , The Buggy- Man.

cjk tittle Gem Bakery and Confectionery Cl ME used to be that every dealer made his own Ice Cream. Of recent years almost all dealers have had it shipped in to them, and they are ignorant of the ingredients used and the methods of its manufacture. Cream is cheaper in the small town than it is in the city, and it is therefore more expensive to manufacture in the city, and add to this the manufacturer’s profit and express charges, and if the Ice cream is sold at the same price the local manufacturer sells it for, there is a cheapening of the ingredients. The “Little Gem" uses pure cream, separated by local dairymen—you know the product is pure and free from the cheapening processes employed by the manufacturers in the big cities. Our gasoline engine makes it possible to freeze ten gallons of cream in eight minutes. Orders delivered to any part of the city Try it and you will agree that the Little Gem Ice Cream is the best ever sold in Rensselaer. A large room with every appointment for the retail trade.
