This immense hardware store is
one of the most complete stores in
this section. The stock of this well
known store is an exemplification of
the triumph of modern civilization
over savagery. Man is no longer
satisfied with the crude hardware of
the stone age, but insists that his im-
plements be of the latest pattern.
"That is why this store has so large
a patronage, for it carries lines that
are standard all over the country.
In regard to cutlery, tools and
: shelf hardware this store is the most
complete in the community. Ne mat-
ter what you want in the hardware
line, all you have to do is to call for
it, and the genial and accommodating
corps of clerks will produce it sc
quickly that you will wonder how
they find it in such a vast array of
stock of large and small articles of
»gvery description.

OF THE LEADING MERCHANDIS
THE VICTOR VICTROLA.
A shopping tour of the community
“would not be complete without doing
business here. This is one of
the leading stores of this section
and is considered by wholesale firms
as one of the largest buyers in this
part of the state, and consequently
is given the unusual advantages of-
fered to merchants of this class.
Their stock is purchased in large lots
and as a result they are able to give
the public an extraordinary service in
high class goods at very reasonable
prices.
At this very modern store is car-
ried an excellent line of high grade
drygoods, notions, dress goods, un-
derwear, blankets, shoes and mat-
erials with style and quality
and at a price that will suit you.
This establishment is one of the larg-
est stocked stores in the community
amd draws trade not only from the
city, but from the country for many
miles around.
At this popular institution you
have at your service those many little
accessories of dress which character-
ize the attire of the progressive wo-
man of today, and one must look far
and wide to find a stock more com-
plete and attractive.
They offer the genwmine Victor.
There is only one Victrola. Many
have imitated this superior product,
but the Victor has won its right to
a distinctive class of its own. This
popular talking machine not only
faultlessly reproduces the work of
both individual artist and musical
organization but it offers exclusively
the greatest artists in each particul-
ar field of music. These artists have
chosen the Vietor as a means of
bringing their charm t. the public be-
cause they know that the Vietrola
reigns supreme in the talking mach-
ine field.

commercial assets af the county,

an important factor in the develop-
ment of this county. While it has
ever been their object to obtain a fair

materials, the guiding influence of
this company has always been the de
termination to furnish the highest

able that the extension and beauti-
fication of the city and county could

and bounds.

county that has a greater influence

dustry. Contractors have come to
know that whatever they desire in
their business can be secured from
this firm with a knowledge that it
will be of the highest grade consistent
with the price.
Lumber, lath, shingles,
doors, windows and all other
demands of the builder are furnished

experienced help they are able to of-
fer this high grade of goods at prices

AT BELLEFONTE IS KNOWN AS
It is without doubt necessary that
an immense stock of goods be carried
by the hardware dealer who wishes
to be successful and keep pace with
the demands of his customers. In this
present day of hurry and rush the
patron demands that his call for a
nail or a screw be given the same
* careful attention as though he
were buying a new range.
At this popular establishment par-
attention is given this fea.
and here you will
——— —— ————
find standard makes of the world’s
best manufacturers.
The stove department is one of
the features of the store where
they have a full line of stoves of
all models. These stoves have on
them the latest fuel and labor sav-
ing devices and in these days of the
high prices of fuel it behooves
everyone to be very careful of the
kind of a stove that they buy. This
line will pay for itself in a short
time in the saving in fuel
In the way of paints, varnishes,
and painters’ supplies the stock is
large and most complete. No mat-
ter what you may desire in the way
of paints, you will find a moat com-
plete stock at this store.
The department for kitchen uten-
sils is very complete, having been
selected with much care. This line
comprises everything that is new and
modern and is designed for the great
efficiency and saves the housewife
trouble, time and money.
The following are a few of their
specialties: Dockash ranges, woven
wire fence, asphalt roofings, wagon
and buggy rims, mixed oil paints,
White Mountain refrigerators, Flor-
ence oil stoves, galvanized roofings,
extension ladders, leather belting,
"Garbola” water paint, window glass,
We wish to compliment them
upon the valuable service
which is being furnished the people
of this community and to give them
a place among those concerns in this
section which are aiding in the pro.
gress and prosperity of this commu-
nity.

WHO ARE WILLING TO PLACE

owners for this car has
has proven satisfactory under every
test and condition. You can not
make an intelligent choice of a motor
car until you have investigated the
Dodge and its enviable record.
Dodge Brothers Motor Cars are
the world and
have won fame and well merited
praise in many lands. This car has
been officially recognized by Uncle
Sam, it being the only car of its size
and type so recognized by the gov-
ernment as the official government
car. The war is over now and
Dodge Brothers Motor Cars return
with an enviable record and no need
of any comment from us.
When they wisely selected these
lines to handle in this territory they
evidenced the fact that they are thor-
bile values of the day and the needs
of the people for they have become
famous throughout the world. The
head of this establishment is cour-
teous and accommodating and will
be pleased to demonstrate at any
time che advantages of these pro-
ducts. In making this review of
the onwaid progress of the county
we wish to compliment them upon
the efficiency of their pervice, the
straightforwardness of their deal-
ings and the wonderful value of the
products they choose to offer the
people of this section of the country.
A motor truck is not included in
that part of one equipment that is
purchased new every year. There
fore, in selecting a truck is it weil
worth while to consider carefully
which kind to purchase. These men
have had a wide experience with
trucks and have been appointed
distributors for the famous Dodge
trucks, which not only answer
all requirements on the day of pur-
chase, but that they stand up season
after season and can be depended on
under all conditions. They have
these trucks in all sizes and thus are
prepared to meet every demand.
The well known “Exide” com-
pany has recognized their ability by
making this popular concern their
representative in this territory. It
is made all standard sizes and would
not be found in this establishment if
they did not know that it is a super-
ior product that has stood the test.
This is one of the leading and best
batteries on the market and was sel-
ected because it is the most scienti-
fically constructed and has proved
that it has no peer. It will pay any
person who wishes to keep pace with
modern methods to stop in and see
this firm about the Exide for this
is the official Exide service station.
In this edition we wish to say that
to this firm and its commendablebusi-
ness methods must go a substantial
portion of praise, for it is such busi-
ness men as they, such up-to-date es-
tablishments as this one that make
for a more progressive community.
