cerning my drays, and by putting them in charg
of a reliable clerk, I will be able to fid all orders
promptly, or let partias know exactly what to
depend on. Whenever my customers of any one
has such work as requires my personal attention,
such as moving iron safes, pianos and all heavy
machinery, all of which I make a specialty, guar
anteeing to handle same without breakage or
in ury, I shall always find time to give my atten
tion to such work, or any business of any nature
which parties wish me to attend to. In so run
ning my business I am confident that I can give
my customers better services than heretotore
shall by all means keep my drays up to the best
standard, good teams and drays, good and care
ful hands, as this is my main business, which I
don't propose to let rundown.
Inasmuch as I am at my stab’es I shall take
charge of same, and give all board and sale stock
my personal attention. With the help of a per
fectly reliable white feeder, I intend to make
mine the best kept board stable in the city, as I
only ask for a limited amount of livery, thereby
being able to give board stock better attention
than I could otherwise.

horses for ladies, gentlemen and children; also a
good drummers’ team; all of whicn can be fur

Sundays. I shall also keep on hand sou.e good

and give satisfaction may warrant. Respectfully,
