D. M. EGBERTS,
Town Recorder.
Yet it is surprising how
m a n y men are careless about
pocket knives —so apt to go
along with their old ones, un
less reminded of it.
A lm ost every day som e of our
custo m ers are rem inded by the
sight of our display of pocket
knives, or perhaps by feeling their
old ones in their pockets, th a t they
need a new knife.
More often th a n n o t, too, they
are surprised to find o u r a s s o rt
m ent so com plete—so m any styles
and sizes— bone h a n d l e s , pearl
handles, m e t a l h a n d l e s , wood
handles. A nd ranging from tw o-
bladed pen k n i v e s to four and
six-bladed knives, and som e with
screw -driver, cork puller and sm all
scissor fittings. M ighty handy for
a m an to have.
H ow about a little shooting
Btime of th ese bright days ? A t a
targ et w ith a .22 rifle, or over the
tra p s? W e can fit you o u t—Rifles,
C artridges, S h o t-g u n s, S h ells, all
R E M 1 N Q T O N -U M C , o u r l e a d
ing line in A rm s an d A m m unition
favored by p ractically all the
keen S portsm en we know.
