In turning the leaves of our book the reader will notice its similarity to the annuals of former years. To avoid this was an impossibility, but if the changes are few we trust the volume may not prove of less interest to those into whose hands it may fall. We have sought to make The Prism a compendium of the college life in the year just past, rather than a literary production ; therefore keep this thought well before you when perusing the following pages.

JORDAN, whose portrait accompanies this article, will sever his connection with Maine State College July 1, oi the present year, to accept the position of Director of the Experiment Station at Geneva, New York. Professor Jordan’s withdrawal is a severe loss to the College; but it is a distinct gain to the agricultural interests of the country, because he will thus be placed in a position to do more and better work than ever before. Though we deeply regret that another state has held out inducements sufficient to draw him from Maine, we cannot but have a feeling of pride in the fact that it was to a Maine man that New York turned when she wanted to fill one of her most responsible positions; and we must regard it a high compliment that her choice fell on an alumnus of Maine State College. Professor Jordan is easily one of the foremost agricultural scientists in the United States. As an authority on animal nutrition he has prob- ably few equals and no superiors. As an investigator lie is patient, persistent, accurate. As a thinker, cautious, keen, and logical. His views are broad, his mind judicial. His generous way of looking at things is in part due to native characteristics, in part to his thorough training. A graduate of Maine State College, a post-graduate student at Cornell University, an assistant in chemistry at Wesleyan University, an instructor in agriculture at his alma mater, five years a professor in Pennsylvania State College, he brought to his work as Director of the 17 Experiment Station at Orono large scholarship and wide experience. The evidence ot this is seen in the results of his investigations and the clearness and simplicity of his reports. Professor Jordan will be greatly missed by the farmers of Maine. His presence at an institute was always evidence that work of high grade was to be expected, and this expectation was never disappointed. The breadth and accuracy of his information on all points which per- tained to farming made his addresses rich in illustration and his answers to questions full and satisfactory. His logical habit of mind led him to arrange his matter in so orderly a manner that his hearers had no diffi- culty in grasping and holding the salient points. He leaves us just as his powers have reached full maturity and with the prospect of many years of work before him. To his new field of labor he carries the fruit of twenty years of close study and thought, and the hearty wishes of all for his luture success. MM 18 TJhe Seneret jf umni jfssoc at on. Ciiaki.es S.

As o’er the broad meadows comes sweet breath of corn. Far up on the flag-staff, blown out by the breeze. The ninety-five pennant wave over the trees? With its background of white and its letters of blue. It gleams in the sunlight o’er boys brave and true. Though the battle was short, yet the victory great Which brought us as champions of our Pine Tree State. We did up the others, five games out of six. For we were the ones who had taken the tricks. Some called us farmers and tried to play jest. Hut found in the end we were little the best. In tennis we also show up at the head. Was 1 ley wood the best man? “ Yes,’’ everyone said. Although in field sports we were young in the game. We gained from the contest considerable fame. And hope in the future, with brains and with muscle. To come out ringleader, the first in the tussle. Our training equipments of very poor nature We hope to improve at the next legislature; For they must now know from the work we have done. That for each of our contests we needed some “mon,” And if they but help us to build up a Gym., We'll be in Athletics, and not on the rim. 22 Senior jfcistory. w OUR years ago tliis coming fall the class of ’96 first came into existence. They appeared as minute green creatures,which the professor in natural history, after much study, classified as follows: Animal kingdom. Verte- bratae, Mammal, Primate. Homo sapiens; com- mon name, freshmen. Before the arrival of these green things, Maine State College was unknown beyond a limit of ten miles, but to-day, at the close of their last year, it enjoys a rapidly increasing fame, due entirely to this wonderful and puissant class (so they think.) Like the maple leaf, which changes color at maturity, so these things, which we first encountered in all their vivid greenness, have gradually changed their hue to that of brown and white. They received the hard- ships of Oak Hall life like men, and also received without a murmur the water which came rushing down four stories. In their first year at base ball they were unsuccessful and furnished the peanuts with the few pennies which they had obtained from P. M. labor on the farm. As Sophomores they were very successful, driving the Preshmen at will, and demolishing every door which was barred against them. Their dummies were well made and not infrequently to the point. They defeated the Freshmen in both base ball and foot ball, and 23 received the peanuts which were freely given. At a fire drill, one of them discovering smoke issuing from a Freshman, feared for his life and deluged him with water, but curiously enough, the faculty enter- tained a different view of the matter, and saw fit to allow him a visit to the paternal roof-tree. In athletics and in the recitation room the boys of ’9G hold an unbroken record of victories and honors—they have done themselves “proud.” With pride and with veneration we bid adieu to these struggling heroes, whose footsteps will no more resound through the halls of our alma mater, trusting that through life, laurels may be awarded to them as plentifully as they have been in the past four years. 24 Gilbert Warren Herman C erss of ’96.

C. have nearly expired, yet as records show it to be a fact, we must accept it. and look forward to the time when we shall be dignified Seniors, with the good behavior of the student body in our hands and the task of leading Maine State’s little army through the battles of the coming year. Let us not think too much of the future, but dwell for a moment on the past. On the 29th of August, 1K93, we made our first appearance on the campus. What we lacked in quantity we made up in quality, and owing to our studious achievements, soon won respect. It was also evident that no one Sophomore desired to tackle any of our number more than once. After being initiated into the mysteries of college life 28 and its occasional scraps, we closed our Freshman year with happy thoughts, wishing away the summer vacation that we might come back to take our turn at the Sophomore wheel. Somewhat to our disappointment, on returning we found that our number had diminished. But with a true heart and a steady hand we took up the task which lay before us, and were not slow in making the Freshmen to know their place. They were marshalled out to take the usual midnight parade, obeying the sharp orders, “Freshmen, fall in, right face, forward march!' Since then some of the men of '1)8 have won great fame as pedestrians, which we hold is due to the heel and toe movement taught them on that eventful night. The diamond was scraped in the usual custom, and under our good supervision it received a most thorough cleaning. The remainder of the year was not wholly uneventful, for Old Prob. often predicted showers which materialized by buckets full, by bags full, by scuttles full, by squirt-guns, and even through the hydrants. Some of our number, becoming quite apt with the strop and razor, proceeded to skillfully lessen the hirsute facial adornment on the superior labium of some of the Freshmen. It was noticed that this was a warning to the cultivators of superfluous growths of hair. Among some of the social events of this period we recall with much pleasure our Ivy Day and banquet, which occurred on the 29th of May. This day, which is a gala day to all Sophomores, was likewise so in the present case. The participants in the programme rendered their parts creditably, while the hatchet, pearl feeder, ITS generator and dumb-bell each found its rightful owner. We planted our ivy in front of Coburn Hall to perpetuate our memory and the evening of the same day found us in Bangor, where we held the banquet. Thus the ’97 banner waved triumphant during our second year. 29 The following September, called together by the opening of College, we met as sturdy Juniors. This reputation we are sure we sustained: for whoever noticed our career must have marked that, like “Spin s whose silent lingers point to Heaven Was the fall deportment of dear Ninety-Seven.” At the commencement of the spring term of the present year, we held the annual Junior Promenade, which we are glad to say was a success in all respects. Thus briefly is a history of our doings in and out of College. For our ability as a class you may judge from The Prism before you. 30 Class of ’97. Conors. Red and Lemon. Class 2 oH. Whoop alulla !

N attempting to disclose to the won- dering eyes of the public the doings of this illustrious class, the writer finds himself almost at a loss to clothe his thoughts with words of sufficient admiration. They have always been a large class; in point of numbers they ex- ceeded any previous class. After arriving at the College, with the customary eagerness of I;reshmen, they artistically scraped the diamond, and as cheerfully and gracefully turned out for the midnight parade as all Freshmen should. But they fretted under their restraints and endeavored to show to other people that they were (so they thought) “up to date.” But pride in all such cases must have a fall, and Freshmen must be made to remember that there are other people in college besides themselves, who should be obeyed and respected accordingly. So these dear boys from the rural districts learned the same painful lessons as are being learned year after year. The peanut game came. Bounce was there. ’1)8, amid great excite- ment, also scrapping, won the game. The peanuts came. Bounce was again present (or accounted for.) The Freshmen were already smack- ing their lips in anticipation of a good thing when suddenly the peanuts, bag and all, bounced from the window and disappeared. Great excite- ment among the Freshmen; but the peanuts, alas! were never found. 34 But ‘98 may well he proud of herself and her members. Well do we remember the ponderous form of Haggerty rushing down the stairs of Oak Hall and looking so thirsty. Oh! what a shape (to wet)! With what admiration must the awakening Freshman in camp this fall have looked from his tent door and seen him resplendent iti his golden chevrons, his manly breast heaving to the accompaniment of “I can’t get ’em up.” As athletes, '98 has shown up very well on the base ball and foot ball field and in track athletics; but they can none of them equal the spirited dash which Joe did from Stillwater to the campus, when chased by the Stillwater ‘‘muckers.” They are marksmen, too. You have all heard of the skill of John Dugan with the rifle ; but it is doubtful if he is regarded any more dangerous than Corbett with his eyes flashing along the shining surface of a double-barreled squirt gun. For they are Sophomores now, and are doing good work in College, and we may safely say they will be heard of again in College and out. In the early part of the spring term of this year the class lost, by death, one of its most popular members—Arthur II. Taylor. His death was mourned by all who knew him. Class of ’98. Co tors.

In chapel they occupied the whole of one side, and their “abiding places” were scattered all along the road from Bangor to Oldtown. II the well-trained Sophomores felt dismayed at the prospect of the task of properly training such an aggregation of verdant youths, panting to distinguish themselves, they are not to be blamed, for the campus was literally covered with Freshmen waiting to be initiated into the mysteries of college life, and more particularly, Freshmen life at the M. S. C. They were soon introduced tc military life, and brought to “assume the position of a soldier” under the supervision of Major Marston. The sand-bag exercises being omitted owing to lack of time, they were not as well set up at the time of going into camp as former classes have been. One of the first exploits after arriving on the campus was to give a midnight athletic exhibition, to which only a limited number were invited. Accompanied by the Sophomores as chaperones, they repaired to the Orono trotting park, where “Nelson” showed his wonderful machine-like gait and powers of endurance in a hotly contested race, and where several other fine records were made. They scraped the 40 diamond very well, considering that they knocked off when they got tired. In the “peanut” game the Freshmen clearly outplayed the Sophomores throughout the game, but at the very last of the ninth inning fickle fortune smiled on the “ Sophs,” who won the game by the small margin of one, the score standing 11 to 10. The class game of foot ball was the best ever seen on the campus. While, much to the surprise of everyone, neither side scored, vet the game was a triumph for the Freshmen, who kept the ball in OS’s territory during the entire game and clearly outplayed their opponents. It would not be right to pass over in silence the loss that the class met with in the death of Harry L. Holmes of Augusta, who died of appendicitis, October 21, 1895. His death threw a feeling of sadness over the entire College. There is considerable base ball and foot ball talent in the class, which will undoubtedly help us out in athletics. With the material that it contains, we can safely predict a brilliant future for the class of ’99, and shall read with interest their history as it appears in future editions of The Prism. 41 Class of ’ 99.

TJhe Annual Encampment. -A, i |'|tc , k3 Jj N the small hours of the morning of the th of October, lSl)f , we were awakened from our slumbers by the lusty sound of Hag- gerty’s bugle, only to array ourselves in the neat and serviceable uniform, answer to roll call, procure our little bag of doughnuts, and to await the Adjutant’s call. The battalion having been formed we started at a brisk march for the Webster station, which was reached in the course of fifteen minutes. But upon arrival, somewhat to our dismay, learned that U the train was considerably behind time. This seemed to greatly C 1)] trouble the Major, for he proceeded to pass away the time by drill- ing on the manual of arms. As the old saying goes, “patient waiters are no losers;’’ we soon saw the iron horse moving up to the station, as if in doubt whether it was safe or not to advance on such a gathering. However, we were hurried on board and upon our way to the pleasant village of Presque Isle, where we arrived after many hours of travel through the unsettled districts of Northern Maine, with its beautiful lakes and extensive forests. By that time our watches showed 71 the minute hand creeping slowly up to the figure twelve, with the hour hand nearly on two. A hungrier set of beings were never seen, for our doughnuts were gone, having devoured them almost before we had started upon our journey. So while the baggage was being taken from the cars we put off for a dining room across the way. The proprietor was not expecting such a gathering, so could accommodate only a few. The remainder were not discouraged, but repaired to a grocery store, where crackers and cheese- went like hot cakes. When we hail satisfied our appetites we fell in and marched through the town to the new quarters, which was christened Camp Henry B. Cleaves. The tents were soon pitched, blankets issued, and by the time that everything was in readiness, the familiar notes of the bugles, as they sounded mess call, reverberated through the air. In a jiffy we had placed ourselves at the table, but where we had expected to see some dainty dishes, there was only a great quantity of our usual food, baked beans, as white and hard as if they had just been plucked from their mother vines. However, being very hungry, we relished these buck- shot beans as if they had been turkeys. You can well imagine our displeasure on coming to breakfast the next morning to find the same rations awaiting us ; then served again for dinner and supper until the song of the day became : Beans for breakfast. Beaus for dinner. Beans for supper, Beans! beans! Iieaus! But this programme was not always to last, and much to the dis- comfort of the cook upon rising one morning to prepare the usual menu, he discovered that two of the half bushel kettles (which of course con- tained beans) had disappeared, and after much hunting found them prostrate upon the ground, a sight to make the strong tremble. Some- how from this harsh act lie decided to feed us no more on beans, and therefore our food became much better and somewhat varied. 72 As to the young ladies of Presque Isle I will say but little, for where there is naught to talk about there is naught to say. But upon further thought I do remember that on one occasion there were as many as six females appeared at our camp. The chief source of amusement was in hovering over the camp fire with our thick coats on our backs and the cape drawn tightly over the head to keep out the searching winds which blew direct from the North Pole. One characteristic of this encampment was the amount of ice cut by the Freshmen, not perhaps, though, as the slang phrase goes, but that which was formed during the night in the barrels which contained the wash water. From the nearness to the border line of Uncle Sam’s property and that of Queen Victoria’s, it was a great desire of many to say that they had been out of the United States, so on several occasions there were parties who went across the line, while in nearly every case valises were carried along in which to bring back anything that should be purchased on the Canadian side of the Iron Post. Another feature of our encampment was a sturdy pedestrian, who was about camp every day and gave record-breaking exhibitions in that line of athletics. Notwithstanding the great crowd that gathered when he gave an exhibition, he made one one-hundred yard dash in nine and one-half seconds, then fell out of breath at the feet of his trainers. On the whole we spent a most profitable encampment. There being very good drill grounds, we received much instruction in extended order and battalion drill. The guard mount was in every case carried out to perfection, while much attention was paid to company drills. And under the able supervision of our new commander we believe that our battalion will hold its name as being the best drilled military organiza- tion in the State of Maine. I could go on and mention many other things that happened during our stay, but as my space is limited. I shall be obliged to leave them 73 out. except that we as editors of The Prism, in behalf of the student body, greatly thank the members of the Aroostook Alumni Association for the kindness they showed in rendering to us a reception which was a very enjoyable occasion to those who participated. 74 9 .

We are proud of our last year’s team and justly. Our success was due in great part to the whole-heartedness with which the team went into the work, but we must attribute some of it to the faithful work of our coach, Harry Miller. This year, with all of the Maine Colleges in the league and base ball prospects looking very bright, we may expect a lively race for the pennant. With the advent of this spring we again realized our need of a gymnasium but this difficulty was overcome by placing the men in training in the Bangor V. M. C. A. gymnasium. We lost three men by graduation last year but their places will be well filled by new men. This year the team will make its first trip out of the State to play Massachusetts and New Hampshire college teams. This will prove of advantage to the college, for it will bring our team into more prominence outside of the State. We may safely say that base ball has never had a more promising start than it has this year. Take off your sweaters, boys, take Dana’s Sarsaparilla and play ball. What we want is lots of base ball spirit and remember, my gentle enthusiast, that money counts and athletic assessments must be paid. 78 Varsity Sftase Cftall TJeam. Champions of 1895. I. G.

Green! we know we are. yet Maine State held second place in the first intercollegiate field meet. Bow- doin was confident of taking first place. Bates and Colby vied with each other for second, and all with one consent generously gave Maine State the fourth position. We held our peace but counted on third place and lo ! when the day was done. Maine State had won second. It is something we have cause to be proud of. for it is our first encounter with the outside world, and almost our first attempt in field and track athletics. Two years ago we inaugurated a field day which we felt was some progress in our athletics, and last year the advance was still more marked. The large classes of the past two years have helped much by furnishing more competition, but we can not reach a high standard while we have no place in which to train for these contests. It is almost useless for us to hope ever to make much progress in athletics until we have a gymnasium upon our campus. A gymnasium is some- thing that is needed more than any other thing in connection with our college. The students of the college have worked hard for its advance- ment, they have done their part, but when they ask for a well regulated gymnasium that the college may stand on an equal footing with its contemporaries, members of the legislature hold up their hands in horror at such useless extravagance, and inform us that we are sent here to study farming, and not to waste our time in such tomfoolery as playing ball, and seeing who can run fastest. If the State cannot afford to furnish its college with the equipments necessary to keep it on a standard with the other colleges she had better close her doors and sell out. 84 Winners of College Tournament, 1895.

Who teaches us the morals true, Preached from his sermons old and new, Of chapel manners not to rue? ’Tis “Prexie.” Who shows us, in the space unknown, That where we thought our Heavenly Throne, There little worlds from stars are grown ? ’Tis “Janie.” Who argues from that Darwin stand That we’re not made of moistened sand, As thought our sires of fatherland? Tis “Fossil.” Who teaches 11s to reason straight, And never a blind phrase to state. But always one that carries weight? 'Tis “ Allie.” Who talks to us of men of yore. In that broad field of literature That down through ages will endure? ’Tis “ Honey.” Who shows us different compounds vile, That we.may make to pass the while. And use them in the proper style? ’Tis “Jonnie.” 108 Who is the one with Leyden jar. That lias the last year been afar; Who’s much afraid his lab. we’ll scar? ’Tis “Jimmie.” Who teaches us to build a bridge, To place a standpipe on a ridge. And pass a railroad round a hedge? ’Tis “ Boliver.” Who shows us how a board to sever. To build an engine with a lever? But. to commit a formula, never. ’Tis “ Jiinflint.” Who commands our battalion in battle array, “As in time of peace we prepare for the fray,” While each of us thinks of the great judgment day? ’Tis “Tapie.” Who teaches how to roll out a pill. And make such mixtures as will fill the bill, All of which we must taste though opposed to our will ? Tis “Jackman.” Who’s lie that’s been with us for many a year, That for his good fortune we give him much cheer, And when he must leave us we'll all squeeze a tear? ’Tis “Jordan.” Who are the ones that have been here a spell, By the names of Bab, Colty, and Damon as well, And also Old Hundred, Hal. Nick, and the Swell? They’re Instructors. 109 “jilt We Xihe Sheep.” ♦ On the second day of the ninth month, in the year eighteen hundred and ninety-five, a large flock of sheep was assembled in a green pasture beside the Stillwater. They came from Ohrowknow, Agedvillage, Quietstream and many distant meadows. Amid the bleating of the multitude could be distinguished such sounds as “ Baa------ngor,” “Baa-----ta.“ All that day and the day following, a great slaughter took place. The wild sheep and the black legs were shut out of the fold, and the lambs which had been “skinned” or “sheared” were sent to other pas- tures, for the wind is not tempered to the shorn lamb at Ohrowknow. Those which remained were divided into four flocks, the members of which may be distinguished the one from the other thus:—The Senior by his erudition: the Junior by his superciliousness; the Soph by his gleesomeness; the Scrub by his modest confidence mingled with respect- ful deference. Over all the sheep is a head shepherd; below him, under shepherds; and below them, sheep dogs. The order of the days is this: At the eighth hour of the morning and every hour thereafter to the eleventh, the shepherds gather their flocks together and call them by name, and the sheep know their names and answer, “Here.” After the eleventh hour they call them no more till they have been fed, and the manner of feeding is this. When the midday sun is hottest the pretty creatures seek the shelter of the “Oak,” and from there are admitted into a large pen. Here food is distributed by shepherds who move too slowly to please the eager ani- mals, which do not hesitate to manifest their disapproval by loud cries. It is a noticeable fact that the white sheep eat more than the black. Why? Because there are more of them. no After being fed, some of the lambkins browse among the vials of the chemical laboratory, nibble electric currents, or placidly ruminate in the drawing room, while some of the giddy things gambol about, butting each other like goats and fighting for a pigskin. When the weather allows, all gather toward sundown, for a frolic on the green, led by the bell wether. From the early hour at which they are gathered into their fold has come the phrase “to bed with the lambs.” After four years of this life they are presented with a sheepskin and sent forth among ravening wolves. Ill “ It’s a good thing, keep it yourself.” “ Who moved Capt. Edgerley’s tent? ” The class in Mechanics must have been taking an appetizer, for they thought it necessary to carry their dinner into examinations. “We will sing psalm No. 26.” “ I am afraid that solution would be like shadow soup.” “ Ilonig konnen wir eucli gaben.” “ Say ! have you got a cigarette?” “ You cannot change those stars ( and ). Astronomy is a fixed science.” “ Good morning ! Have you joined the mustache club? ” The library seems to be quite an attractive place since so many young ladies have entered our institution. “Where do they get the blue and green oil that they use in the colored lights about the station ? ” Tape was feeling sleepy and so the Sophomores did not wake him in time for Guard Manual. He—“Yes, I am a C. E. but I shouldn’t advise you to take that course: there’s so much in it no woman could do. Why you wouldn’t be only half a civil engineer.” She (shyly) “I wouldn’t mind being the better half.” Marginal note in Freshman’s algebra—“Variation’s the very spice of life.” Prof. Hart—“The singular of dice is die.” This is in direct opposition to the proverb, “Never say die.” Unique is derived from two Latin words:—unus, one and equns, horse. Remembering the number of horses ridden by one student this year, we see this adjective to be obviously inapplicable to M. S. C. 112 There is in our college a beautiful dame, That has Cupid’s attractions as principal aim, Who’s convinced she is nearing the summit of fame. She became so attractive that no more could she stay With the rest of the students, but the organ must play And took that position, much to our dismay. 114 Our artist has worked with main and with might To get the right posture, and in the right light. And has on her picture worked many a night. When she heard of his endeavors, all inflated with pride She said: “This was an honor for which he had sighed, An honor for which she would have willingly died.' Then she held her head high ns her neighbors passed by, For she reasoned: “They’re not so distinguished as I, How they'll envy me when I'm in print bv-and-by.” Now I'm much afraid that this picture'll be jeered. For the press was not right, and the printer's ink smeared, And somehow the likeness seems horribly “ queered.” 115 Chapel Declamations ♦ OUR MORNING DIVERSION.

The Courses of Study leading to Degrees are nine, each re- quiring four years for completion : The Latin-Scientific Course is designed for those who seek the college for general culture and training, and especially for those who expect to become teachers. The General Scientific Course differs from the Latin-Scientific Course, in substituting modern languages for Latin. Students in either of these courses may devote especial attention to mathematics, physics, or natural history. The Agricultural Course is designed for those who wish to become farmers, teachers or investigators in agricultural science, or editors of agricultural papers. In this course, agriculture is treated as a branch of technology. For those who wish practical rather than scientific training in agriculture, shorter courses are provided. The Civil Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to become surveyors, railroad, highway, hydraulic, bridge or sanitary, engineers. XXX The Mechanical Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to become managers of manufacturing plants, or general mechanical engineers. The Electrical Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to fit themselves for any line of practical work in electricity. The Chemical Course is designed for those who wish to become professional analysts, teachers of chemistry, or managers of indus- tries in which an extensive knowledge of chemistry is needed. The Pharmacy Course is designed for those who wish to prepare themselves for the practice of pharmacy, and at the same time obtain a broad general training. The Preparatory Medical Course is designed for those who pro- pose to take up the study of medicine after graduation and wish to so shape their college work as to furnish the best preparation. The Short Courses are as follows: The Pharmacy Course, of two years, is designed for those who wish to obtain a practical training in pharmacy in the shortest time. The Electrical Engineering Course, of two years, is designed for those who have time for only the practical training in electricity. The Course in Library Economy, of one year, is designed for those who wish instruction in the care and management of libraries. The Agricultural Courses, of one and two years, are designed for farmers. The Training Courses, of six weeks each, in General Agriculture, in Dairying, and in Horticulture, are planned for farmers. The College year is divided into two sessions beginning on the first Wednesday in February and September. Rooms and Tuition are free. For catalogues and further information, address A. W.

Cannot expect to sell goods in a dark and dirty store like that. The above are facts. I have sold but few goods for the past five years, and at last have failed, just as was predicted, but have not be- come insolvent. I simply failed to have room for my increasing busi- ness, so had to have my store re-modelled to make more room, and in the meantime have had it cleaned and painted; and now my facilities are better for catering to my customers, in Fine Groceries (specialty), Provisions, Confections, Tobacco and Cigars, than ever in the past.
