These are days of progress. in al lines of business, and Kingston mierch- ants are among the more progressive. The equipment in the furnishing de- partment at the store of C. Livings- ton & Bro., Brock street, calls for spe- cial mention, as with the latest ad- ditions to this special department the store ranks as one of the best fitted the business it carries on.
