THIS IS THE MAN 



WHO HAS HANDLED ROOT'S GOODS ALL THESE YEARS 



and is now selling at wholesale and retail at Root's catalog prices. 

 He has carloads of the finest sections, of all kinds and sizes; the 

 Danzenbaker hive, the best single-walled comb-honey hive in use; 

 all kinds of single-walled hives shown in catalog, and supers that 

 match; the Hilton double- walled hive, of which more are used in 

 Michigan than any other. It has stood the test for thirty years. 

 We can't name them all, but send for his 36-page illustrated catalog, 

 and that will tell it all and give prices. Cash or goods in exchange 

 for beeswax at all times of the year. ^ ^ ^ ^ >f

CHICAGO, ILL., June 30, 1906. 

 To My Customers and Friends: 



June 20th we were so unfortunate as to have a large fire in the building we 

 occupied, which nearly destroyed our entire stock of bee-supplies. We at once 

 secured much larger and better quarters on the first floor at 191 and 193 EAST 

 SUPERIOR STREET (three blocks north and one block east of our former location) , 

 and ordered a full line of the FAMOUS LEWIS BEE WARE -the best that money 

 can buy. We are now in our new quarters and ready to ship goods by return 

 freight or express. 



Thanking you for past favors, and trusting to receive your future orders, we 

 are Yours truly H, M. Arnd, 



Proprietor of York Honey and Bee-supply Co. , 



Send for free catalog. Chicago, Illinois. 



Pretty Recognition 



A lady to whom I sent a Smoke Engine to order per mail sent 

 this delicate recognition, "I am pleased," and signed her name. 



We have made hundreds of thousands of smokers in the last twenty- 

 eight years. They always please and last; don't spit fire; don't go out; 

 don't daub themselves all over. We are the most extensive exclusively 

 bee-smoker makers in the world.
