the Lackawanna Steam ?.ikeiy, and
hopes to stllle all competition by foil
ing the Independent manulncturers out
of business. Is doing all In Its power to
Injure Mr. Kelly's business, but In
stead of selling out at the dictation of
the Trust, he has decided to enlargo
the capacity of his plant and thereby
place himself in position to successfully
compete with his gigantic competitor.
It will be to the Interest of tho con
sumers of crnckois, inkes, etc., to In
sist on their grocers and bakers giving
them goods manufactured by tho
Lackawanna Steam Jiakcry, and there
by matcilnlly strengthen Mr. Kelly in
