Anybody can do as we aiv doing give the most and best for the money but it knocks the profits, and that is the reason we have no followers, but stand alone in holding out inducements nnd giving the biggest bargains possible, which cannot fail to tempt those who appreciate our extraordinary efforts in giving the best goods for the least money. Credit pays the dealer more money than cash, so he clings to the credit system, but CASH saves the customer more money. Look out for self and you will look in on us. Our prices s?ve your pocket. Our profits save your purse. Our goods are the best you can buv, or that can be sold for cash. THE DY1YAHVIITE! w use to shake t lungs up with is Condensed Price", ami Small r. -tits.
