McKENZIE & HOWELL'S
We find lines that we will sacrifice to clear out,
but we cannot take space here to enumerate
them. So far the sale has been a success. We
are doing a larger business this February than
last, and have decided to add two staple lines to
our bargain list :
Coiled_ Spring Wire, at $2.75
Barb Wire, - at $2.75
We are known in this section as the cheapest.,
and the place to buy the best hardware. We
want pleased customers and our reputation to
continue to spread and be sustained.
FENCING
is a big part of our business. We have given t*j cc•
Tal attention to it, and can now give almost any
kind of fencing required. Wo are now taking or-
ders so as to insure it being here when wanted.
There will be a big rush this season for fencing.
The fence we like best is called the "Ideal." It is
correctly nailed, for it is the farmers' ideal fencing.
We believe it is the strongest and best fenco for the
least money that has been put on the market.
The life of a fence is the life of its weakest point
This fence is male of all No. 9 hard steel galvanized
wire (No. 9 is the large wire), that is, Iatterals, u1S-
rights and locks are all heavy wire, and, therefore,
has no weak points. Truly it is the farmers' ideal
fencing.
We will also tlindle the Fitter',, Asia:watt and Pal -
vial fences, and think we can give you entire satis-
faction.
We will handle the BEST PORTLAND CEMENT made.
Our stuck of HARDWARE is being well -assorted with Spring Goods,
and will give you entire satisfaction

Fit and Wear
There are some things which can't be improved. One of these
things is the " Queen Quality " shoe for women.
You can snake it more elaborate, you can decorate it, em-
bellish it, use costl • materials and all that ; BUT FOR $100
A PAIR YOU CANNOT MAKE A BETTER SHOE THAN
"QUEEN QUALITY," HAVING REGARD SOLELY TO
THE TWO GREAT ESSENTIALS OF FIT AND STYLE.
This means that mechanically it is perfect Alt for its al,.
pearance, the fact that hundreds of thousands of women
choose it instantly above all other 'hoes would seem to in-
dicate that it is attractive.
Why don't you go so far as to try on a pair the next time
you come to the stare ! It costa nothing to see then* tit
