Butterbaugh & Shaffer have moved their harness and buggy store one door east of Jennings' grocery where you will find them with a full line of harness and buggies. They are offering special inducements and will save you a good per cent in anything in their line. Save money by seeing them before you buy. ...

Our customers are taking advantage of the special bargains we offer since moving in our new room. We sold a nice carriage, two buggies, six sets of harness and a lot of fine dusters, nets and whips on Monday and Tuesday. Remember the place, G.A.R. building, Butterbaugh & Shaffer.

To the Public.
Having purchased the interest of my partner, W.E. Shaffer, I desire to say to the public that I will continue the business at the old stand, keeping as usual a full and complete line of buggies, harness, trunks and all other goods in my line. Everybody will be given a warm welcome and I especially invite all our old customers to call and see me and as many new ones as possible, promising fair treatment to everybody. Lap robes and blankets will be sold at special low prices and an extra discount will be given on all lines of goods for cash. Thanking you for past favors and soliciting a continuance of the same I am,
Yours respectfully
J.H. BUTTERBAUGH.
