The farmer is his own boss and
is monarch of all his acres that

The Very Latest Styles
It’s an old, old saying that the people you
write to often judge you by your stationery.
And there is a great deal of truth in the
fact that stationery can be so chosen as to
reflect the best of judgment and taste.
Stationery suitable for one occasion may
be entirely out of place for another. Then,
too, the styles in stationery change the same
as styles in clothing.
To be sure that your stationery is right for
ell purposes, always buy it here.____
