An original and individual plan
that gives to credit all the buying
power of cash.
Realizing that the great draw
b a c k in - Diamond buying is the
large cash outlay at one time, we
originated this plan of selling high
grade Diamond Jewelry on a basis
that makes it not only a possibility
to own Diamonds, but a good, sound
business transaction that is
economical from any standpoint.
At Christmas time the advan
tage of this plan is even more accen
tuated on account of the many
demands on our pocketbooks.
So thoroughly have we perfected this
service that credit becomes the same as
cash, giving- the values that would ac
company a cash transaction.
The initial payment, which gives im
mediate possession, is small, and the sub
sequent payments so arranged, covering
a long period of time, that the giving of
a Diamond Gift becomes an easier pur
chase and far more satisfactory to both
tae giver ana recipient.
