And so many a Napoleon of business has suffered defeat just because the building materials that he counted on were not delivered until too late to get the building finished and carry out his plans.

When you are marshaling your forces for an important building operation, it may save you from dis astrous defeat and loss to command such stores of lumber as ours, with such power to assemble and deliver it at short notice when required. Some day you'll build. If you want the work finished on time, see that the lumber comes from LLOYD. William M.
