WE HAVE nothing to give away. Neither has any-
one else in the business world, except in the coated phi
form, and moreover, at a consideration. ‘‘Slip n-e yy^sr

WE DO have S'-zmethic.g •- f woi tli that all get ar.ke.
We don’t call it a gift i Oi uuse it is wholehe:u*tod, wd i
no strings attached. We accord a pleasant. lair, square
and friendly mode of trade to all. When you get P- ■

Sugar lias been orf for several weeks and while we
haven't shouted it from the house tops,-our prices on a
hundred pounds of sugar have been six dollars and nine-
ty cents. We made the price without any bailyho » or
bickering, quietly -and to ail.
Mr. So and So can’t come in and buy anything cheap-
er than you can. -on the U. T. price, so to speak i.e-
cause it is against our business principles and we do not
have to get business that way. Why yes. it’s happened,
and we can sight ca>es. If mere is anything special i i
our outfit, the oldest and iewt customers get it ami they
don't have to ask, don': even know about it s >rre*
times.
Believe me, there are plenty of people tumbling to
that fact, too. Since we published our list of depositors,
several month ago. WE HAVE NOT LOST A SINGLE
ONE; we have ADDED A BOLT FIFTEEN MORE.
Among them are several of the hardest headed business
men in Crockett County, “tambien.” Our business in
March hit a peak for the year so far, being almost seven
thousand dollars.
Pull out that last month’s bid anybody’s bill, if it's
groceries, and bring to the store. Go* around the
shelves and make a duplicate, inserting our prices. If
there is a difference of '2 per cent it would be equivalent
to 24 per cent in a year. You Will Actualiv find a dif-
ference of between S and l • per cent, being Pb pt r cent
in the first and 12" per ee* t in the second, in a year's
time. Even the Bank asks only In p.o*
