PATRONIZE HOME LAUNDRY The way to build up our town is to patronize our home people and make it possible for them to improve, and to better prepare for the business that they are doiritf, so that they can the more readily supply our needs. Hy doiritf this we help each other, and we are building up the busi ness of home people. In order to provide employ ment for t hem-selves and for the convenience of the public, H Emerson and his sister have in stituted a homo laundry in one of U M. Smith's buildings, on mam sweet, near ine posl-ollice, where they purpose to do laundry work for the public. Monmouth needs an institution of this nature and from small beginnings larger ones grow. They propose to do work that will recommend them hitheir pa trons which will invite a contin uance of pat ronage. They solicit your patronage, feeling confident that they can do your work in a manner that will not only please you, but that will secure your continued patronage.
