What Is This Basement Store ? You Ask.
It's neither a Four, nor Five, nor Ten Cent Store,
though our assortment of goods at these prices
will compare very favorably with any we've ever
run across in any city surely a greater variety
than you'll find hereabouts.
We think we can give you better value for
your money than any one else, simply because
the quantities we buy makes such prices a pos
