A chair manufacturer in the East, with a large experience in various 

 kinds of lumber, writes us £is follows: 



"Carload of red guiti which you sent me h,Ts just been received and 

 unloaded. Will say that I am very much pleased with the lumber, both 

 as to quality and thicUness. Up to the present time I have used but 

 little red gum, but expect to be using more lumber of this description, 

 and am in hopes to place more orders with you a little later." 



A'litthcr it is chairs, tables, beds, interior trim or anything else you are making oi 

 ood— you should try our Kraetzcr Cured Gum. You will make no mistake.
