THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1892, CHAS. R. KURTZ EDITOR When You Are All Done Talking Age before beauty U Kno, The Racket, a fat and saucy youngster, a little more than three years old, has a word to say. The first day the store was opened, the low prices plainly marked on everyday necessities, was in marked contrast to the prices you had been paying for similar or even inferior goods One price to all, no discrimina tion, no tricks, no missrepresenta- tion, was another point. Have we faithfully carried this out? We are willing to let U answer. Still another point which we think we have established beyond the shadow of doubt, is that while the prices asked U are uniformly as low as U can find the same goods anywhere in the United States, the quality is first class and up to the standard. This admitted, we pro pose to move foreward to a larger business. Kom to C The Racket.
