ORDER DEPARTMENT.
Every one who retds this notice is requested to
send to us for simples, and carefully compare them
with samples from Chicago or St. Louis. We are
not only not afraid of competition, jbut carncsUy
invite a comparison of goods and prices from all
sources.
Our advantages as large dealers are not excelled
by any house on the continent, while our light ex-
penses enable us to sell on a smaller margin than
do other large houses in Chicago and St. Louis.
As evidence of tills, our "Order- Department"
has attained such magnitude as to give employ-
ment to a large force of clerks, and is so managed
as to secure the prompt and effectual execution of
all orders sent to us. The supehintendent or
this department fs supposed to stand in the
customer's place, and never hesitates to discrimin-
ate in the customer's favor where there is any
chance to do so; consequently the purchaser, by
etter, secures the same advantage as if present in
person.
We thus bring to the doors of our customers is
the country all Uie advantages of our very large
and perfect assortment and low priees.

care and dilligent attention.

third choice in case the lirsl Choice shoul in the
meantime be sold.
When you order goods from Samples, d not re-
move the ticket showing price and width, but at-
tach it and the samples securely to y«ur or er.
DIRECTIONS FOR ORDERING )OD9
Never send money in a letter not registered.
Orders should be accompanied by post office
order or bank draft for the amount.

the expense for collcction charges is thus saved.
Small parccls weighing four pounds and under
can be sent by mail at the rate of one cent per
ounce (16 cents a pound.)
Be very particular to write plainly your Name,
Post Office, County and State.
When customers have only a general idea of
what they want if they will plainly state that and
at the same time give some idea of prices, etc.,
they will risk nothing in allowing us to make their
selections, as we will charge anything not satis-
factory.
We would urge our customers not to hesitate t
sefid small and apparently insignificant" orders;
they will receive as careful attention as would lar-
ger ones. It is our intention to make this depart-
ment a real accommodation to all parties who live
out of town.
Our manner of doing business is strictly "One
Pkice"—please remember this. We make no de-
viation for any person. Every customer is treated
alike.
POSTAL RATES.

extremely low charge of one ccilt per ounce on
packages weighing four pounds or less, enables

selves of this very convenient pl(tn and to buy

least money.
