| TEXT | To what perfection have we come in the manufacture of tools and implements of trade for the mechanic! And yet, can we say that the work wrought out by them surpasses that produced by the rude implements in the hands of the artisans of the ages agone? Did the great secret lie hidden in the rude tool, or was it the skill and unfathomable knowledge of the one who wielded it that gave to the object such beauty and form and symmetry? While these questions are more easily propounded than answered, we are content to know that good American-made tools, in the hands of a good mechanic, are sure to produce the best results, just where to get good tools for the mechanic is of vastly more importance to this day and generation, and we can cheerfully commend the establishment of Messrs. Rising & Thorne, at No. 475 Broad Street, near Orange, to lie just the place. They began business as a firm in 1873, and the reputation of their house is widely known to-day. At all times they carry a complete line of mechanics' tools, hardware, etc. Their store is 20x75 feet in dimensions, and is fully stocked. Experienced assistants are employed, who esteem it a pleasure to serve customers, while orders by mail receive immediate attention. The gentlemen composing the firm are Mr. H. W. Rising and Mr. F. L. Thorne. The former is a New York gentleman and the latter is a native of New Jersey. They are live, enterprising and progressive business men, prompt in all their dealings, and have built up a trade of no little importance by their fair, square system of business. |
