Inspiring for Late Autumn and Winter 



One of the most stimulating and 

 satisfying stores is that of The Lock- 

 wood' & Palmer Company in Stamford, 

 Connecticut. Any lover of suburbs or 

 of country that enters this store will 

 love the home and its surroundings and 

 nature better than ever, and will see 

 that here are satisfying equipments of 

 every kind. 



If you are interested in building, har- 

 vesting, care of chickens, the cultivating 

 of vegetables on the farm, in repairing 

 and painting the buildings for the win- 

 ter, if, in fact, you are interested in any- 

 thing connected with a home near to 

 nature, then here you will find the best 

 of everything with reasonable prices 

 and courteous treatment. 



A store so well equipped and man- 

 aged is not only a commendable busi- 

 ness enterprise for the owners, but is to 

 the visitor educational and suggestive. 

 It tends to make living in the country 

 enjoyable and efficient. 



Stamford's Biggest Candy Kitchen. 



It is fifteen years since the Olympia 

 Candy Company started in business on 

 Atlantic Street, Stamford, Connecticut. 

 Their growth, the result of painstaking 

 endeavor to please the public, has been 

 steady. 



The crowning point of their success 

 has recently been celebrated by several 

 changes and improvements. They have 

 installed the largest and best refrigerat- 

 ing plant in this vicinity, at a cost of 

 more than two thousand dollars, and 

 with a capacity of six tons. The work- 

 ing rooms have been extended. A new 

 ceiling and a new tile floor have been 

 put in. The entire establishment is 

 beautiful, convenient, spacious, attrac- 

 tive. A large variety of candy always 

 fresh and ice cream always delicious 

 is kept at all times. Everything about 

 this popular store is inviting. 



A three-year-old girl became inter- 

 ested in a peculiar noise and asked what 

 it was. "A cricket, dear," replied the 

 mother. "Well," remarked the little 

 lady. " he ought to get himself oiled." — 

 Christian Resfister. 



Cheering. — Mistress — "I shall be 

 very lonely, Bridget, if you leave me." 



Bridget — Don't worry, mum. I'll not 

 go until ye have a houseful of com- 

 pany." — Boston Transcript. 



Come out into the sunshine 

 Why stay cooped up in-doors? 



This sparkling morning tonic 

 Is always freely yours. 



— Emma Peirce. 



A well-to-do Scottish lady one day 

 said to her gardener : 



"Man Tammas, I wonder you don't 

 get married. You've a nice house, and 

 all you want to complete it is a wife. 

 You know the first gardener that ever 

 lived had a wife." 



"Quite right, missis, quite right," 

 said Tammas, "but he didna keep his 

 job lang after he got the wife." 



The codfish lays a million eggs. 



While the helpful hen lays one; 

 But the codfish does not cackle. 



To inform us what she's done ; 

 And so we scorn the codfish coy, 



But the helpful hen we prize; 

 Which indicates to thoughtful minds 



It pays to advertise.
