If we don't save you from 25 to .10 per cent on any purcl'ase
of merchandise here. Think that statement over! It means
much. Xo other retailer here sells at so small expense. We
buy and sell for cash only which makes the expense of selling
smaller and lessens the cost of merchandise when buying.
The proof of our leadership is on every side.
