WHEN you pick up your hewspaper and glance over the adver tising you quite unconsciously multiply yourself a thousand times. Tt half or three-quarters of an hour you can, figuratively speaking, visit every progressive store in town. You virtualy poke your head into every department of every department store. You run into the florists’s, the confectioner’s, the ocu- the leading groceries, banks, theatres, all the various places ist’s, that supply the things that make this the twentieth century and life worth the living. Here is a greater choice in clothing, food, furniture, books, pictures, musical instruments, travel, enter- tainment, opportunities for investment, the service of public {itility corporations that any monarch of old could command. I would easily take a thousahd yous, traveling hard all day, to find out for yourself what the advertisements tell you in a few minutes morhing or evening. Advertisemeits deserve your attention. They deserve your confidence. Without advertising, the prices you would have to pay for many of the necessities you now buy for small change wold niake dollar look like a snowball on the kitchen range. Summer Prices .

It is possible there may be further reductions later although not probable as all com- modities seem to be going up rather than coming down. Our present reduc- tions range from ten to sixty cents per ton depending on kind. The Utah-In dian, all lump combination, represents a saving,of $2.10 on the ton as against the purchase of a tonof straight Utah at the old price and the product is ex- cellent for furnace, range or heater. For straight economic operation of the furnace for the summer we recom- mend a combination of Indian Lump and Ladysmith Screenings. This is priced at $9.65 per ton at the bunkers and will give you fine service. Call us direct for further informa- tion.
