Kelly Bros., grocery and meat market has been located at 109 North Main street since February 14th. last. A full line of staple groceries, provisions, feed, etc., has been carried, also in the line of butcher’s supplies, the best fresh and cured meats. So fairly has this firm treated the public that a liberal patronage in a few months was established. Late accusations against them of not handling genuine, pure meats, they claim, originated with jealous competitors. Their fresh meats come from the great Armour packing house, Kansas City, and are thoroughly inspected before being shipped. In the meat market as in all other departments of their house, they simply ask investigation. They challenge all other meat dealers in the city to do the same. If they are trying to be downed by jealous persons in the same line, it is evidence of their honesty and consequent prosperity. They are not worried but that truth and right will prevail and will keep on doing a legitimate, fair business at the old stand
