The Big Store
Has Just Closed
A Successful Year
Despite the fact that the cotton crop
in Bu rleson county last year was the
shortest that was ever known to be
raised in the county for many years,
tire volume of our business was the
largest in its history, notwithstanding
that we could hardly expect to surpass
the very exceptionally good year of 19IS.
Considering the very poor trade con-
ditions that existed during the fall just
passed, we arc highly pleased with our
record, and we feel sure that our many
friends and customers are glad to hear
of our success, to whom we are in-
debted for same.
Honest goods at honest prices by
honest methods is what the people
want, aud we give it to them. That's
the whole story in a nut shell.
