THE SMOKE SHOP

Taken From "Along the Wisconsin River" By A. Decker, 1907

THE SMOKE SHOP

If there is one habit which has grown more largely than others of recent years it is the tobacco habit, and with it has grown the tobacco business until to-day it ranks as one of our foremost and greatest commercial pursuits.

If the reader will step into the Smoke Shop of Margraf & Johnson and look over their stock of tobacco and pipes, which is the best and most extensive in Portage county, they can obtain a somewhat accurate idea of its value as a trade factor. This company was formed more than a year ago and these men are among Stevens Point’s most active, energetic and progressive young men.
