Your attention to my Uz" I would call;
Tlmf s are dull an money tiuht.
But lu these times I'm looking for l-M;
To thoio w ho are bnildlnit riR without number,
I would Inform thit Is tie place to buy Lumber;
My motto I? this: -Qilck Sale and Small Profit,"
Foribiislncm is healthy and I think much of 11;
In quality my Lnmher Is second to none,
Aud as for Shingle, I keep No. 1 ;
Some may not lo,k at It lu tlie Might I do,
And for il.Oie I have a quality No. 3;
And In those who are particular ns some may be,
I still have another quailly tailed No
I have cood seasoned Lumber, Dressed up nice,
Which I will sell nt a low cash pi lot;
Such as Kbeiltij, Celling and Siding, .noth nongto
and Dressed,
Lath, Dattcna and Surfaced . Lnmlicr. all of the
best;
I also liavo Dig Lumber of all kind,
At prices to compare with oil aud hard limes;
All kinds of Timber kept constantly on band,
And a lwi of Cigirs of a very good luaud;
My facilities for selling arc surely without number
I always keep good teams to deliver good Lumber;
So if you want Lumber, Hough, .Dressed, Hfi or
Hard,
You will find pist what yon wont at L M S's I.um
tor Yard.
