To Our Old Customers
in Penns and Brush
Vallies :
When you come to Belle-
fonte, we would be pleased to
have you look through “Tum
Racker,” You will find it an
entirely different store from
the one we had at Woodward
or Spring Mills. Nearer to
our ideal of what a store should
be. We knew how then, but
couldn't. We know how now
and can. No finer store in
town now, and we are just
commencing.
