When
KAVANAUGH
Shows You an Article
I'Ts RIGHT

A store like this, that has your confidence, doesn't ask you to
compare things.  It would be like asking you to prove that it
tells the truth.  Two and two are four.  We insist that everything
here shall be exactly
JUST AS ADVERTISED
and when we say that we lift the business just
A LITTLE ABOVE
The COMMON PLACE
Our Ladies' Ready-to-Wear department is deserving
of especial mention
SUITS, SKIRTS AND CLOAKS, Really Tantalizing
Tantalizing because we cannot tell half about them
in print.
Printer's ink may tell the story, but it does not
put the goods
IN ALL THEIR BEAUTY
before your eyes.  These new, yes very new skirts and
cloaks must be seen
To Be Appreciated
We Want You to see rather than read about them.

Come and take a look at
THE COMING STORE.
Everybody will tell you that is
KAVANAUGH'S
"Just as Advertised."
-----
BEST TIMBER THAT GROWS AND BONE DRY
Buggies and Harness
We carry in stock an immense line.  Anything from a
$40.00 Runabout to the most expensive rig.  We carry such
standard makes as Columbus, Moon Bros, and Regal.
Our prices are the lowest when you consider the quality.

Springfield Wagons
Have stood the test.  Gears built of best white oak and
hickory, seasoned 3 years in open air; 3-4 steel tires, extra
large hubs and second growth white oak spokes.
We also handle the Thornhill, a first class wagon but
lower in price than the Springfield.

We Want to Remind You of our Mammoth Stock of
General Hardware and Furniture, Bridge & Beach Stoves,
Crockery, Glassware
And in fact anything you may need in your or on the farm.
We are anxious to serve you.  Give us a trial.
It might be of mutual benefit.
