We SELL at cost, with the addition of the smallest possible profit. This makes our retail prices the lowest possible, without sacrificing quality, which we cannot afford to do. All the profits which the ordinary retaller must pay to the Jobber, wholesaler, commission man and other “in-between” men go to our customers, These extra profits stay in the pockets of our customers and represent a very large aggregate saving of money in thé course of a year, To-day our business {s larger and growing faster than it has done at an: time in the past twenty-three years of its successful career.
