WE HAVE OPENED A
Shoe Store

Appalachia Hardware Company. The
buying public of Appalachia and the

that have always prevailed at Fullers. Now is the
time to buy shoes.

every pair of Ladies and Mens Shoes purchased.
We carry the well known lines of Edwin Clapp and
Crossette Shoos for Men, Edwin Clapp and Queen

same courtesy.

Shall We Be Rabbit Hearted

These are typical iliuslrutious '
of our almost limitless natural

of knowledge of these grent
truths, so brieily presented,
should give us the courage

That left the gang no place to go b?t
