Friends and patrons, ons and all.
Vour attention to my '-biz'' I would call;
Times aro dull an money Unlit,
But lu these times I'm looking for llnht;
To those who are building rlp without number,
I would inform this Is the place to buy Lumber;
My motto Is this: -'Quirk Sales and Small I'roflt,"
For business is healthy and I think much of It;
In q"ality my Lnmber Is second to none,
And as for Shingles, I kivp No. 1 ;
Some may not h k at it in tho lkht 1 do,
And for .l.o?e I have a quality No. 8 ;
And to those who are particular as some say be,
I stilt have anolbtr quality csil d No
I have (rood seasoned Lumber. Pressed up nice,
Which I will sell at a low cash irlc;
Such as Florrinir, Ceiling and Siding, 'both Iloegh
and Dressed,
Lath, Battens and Surfaced Lumber, all of tbj
beat ; W
I also have Rig Lnmber of all kinds,
At prices to compare with oil and hard timet ;
All kinds of Timber kept constantly on hand,
And a box of Cigars of a very good brand;
My facilities fur set'log are surely without number
I always keep good teams to deliver good Lumber;
So if yon want Lumber, Kuogh, Dressed, Pofi or
Hard,
Yon will flndjnst what yon wsnt at L Id ri's Lum
