S We do not believe a whole lot in expending much money for newspaper advertising so that we c gS are thereby compelled to ask increased prices for our goods. However, we do, just occasionally like to let EVERY ONE know \hat this store is now as always selling furniture and other housefurnishings v &3I ® at lower prices than most other stores. * g?j H OUR WAY— . • H gp We do a large business under an economical expense system which enables us to quote the lowest fej HS possible prices on EVERYTHING. Our prices are uniformly low on all our goods. Our stock is one s>s of the largest and most complete in the city. $0 53 Our customers will tell you that this store is not only one of the largest, but the best store in which to purchase their home needs. In fact, our customers really prove to be our advertisers and they 53 have done it very well indeed. We believe thoroughly in a business system that will convince the cus- 5g tomer that what he purchases here is at least just a little better for the same money, or as good for less money than he can obtain it for elsewhere. * fiQ 5 1.. ' IS? This is the system which has built up our business to its present large proportions and is still doing good work for us. We try our best to give our customers the most for their money and our ex tfcg perience has been that the customer can always be depended upon to return the favor in some good (§3 way.
