Here’s our business policy in a nutshell: We don’t claim that our goods are better than those of other good stores. We don’t claim that we can give you better service than other good stores—store-keeping is a science that more than one mind has mastered, and there is no patent on common sense; but we sell cheaper than others, per ; we ba cheaper because we buy more and buy for cash—and we can buy for cash because we sell for cash only. And then we require but a very margin of profit, because the business of the two Big Stores—New York and Chicago—reaches into the tens of millions. when even our own lowest regular prices are deeply reduced.
