IS WHAT TALKS We buy for SPOT CASH, hence there is no doubt but what we buy cheaper than the Merchant who buys on time. We sell for SPOT CASH, hence we sell cheaper than the Merchant who sells on time. We do not have the expense of book keeping, and we have no bad accounts, neither do we have to wait 30 days, six months, or a year for our money. When the goods go out we get the CASH. When we took charge of this stock on May 8th we well knew that the majority of the goods were Fall and Winter goods, and that they would have to be carried until Fall before they could be sold. That time is here and we are ready for it. We bought this stock at a price which enables us to quote prices away below the imaginary whisper of any and all competition, and in addition to: that there has been greater advances in the prices of Mer- chandise than was ever known before in the same length of time. In a great many instances we know we can save our customers 25 per cent to 50 per cent on their purchases, which is a big item at any time, but especially is this true a season like this, when we have the lightest crop we have had in years, and when every one needs to save all they can. If you buy your Fall Bili from us you will save enough to pay your Taxes, The prices we made in our opening on May 20th are still good on any article that we had at that time.
