THE PREMIUM
BOOT & SHOE MANUFACTORY !
It is a fact conceded by all that
JOHN POWERS
cannot be excelled in Centre county, as a
Boot & Shoe maker. For five years, or as
often as he has deemed it proper to compete
he has drawn the premium on his work, an
received handsome diplomas at our County
Fairs. There are no goods in the way of La-
dies’, Misses and Children’s
FINE SHOES
that excel those Mr. Powers keeps, nor any
so well adapted to the wants of this commu-
nity. He has, at his store DPPosits the Bush
House, a full stock of all widths and all sizes,
and sells the same 25 RY cent. less than any
similar qualities are sold for in this town.
FARMERS GIVE HIM A CALL:
T'DIPLOMA Awarded to John Powers +
for the best fine Boots exhibited at :
Centre County Fair for the year 1875. i
