"THE OLD HARDWARE
STORE"
Is now located on the corner, and we wish to say to
our customers and the public in general, that our
facilities for handling goods and attending your wants
are very much superior than when in the Dodson
building formerly occupied by us. Our stock is com=
plete in every particular, being closely bought and
shipped in at a car load freight rate enables us to sell
very cheap. We do not claim to sell at COST, as that
is beneath sound business principles, and money lost
in that way will have to be made up on other articles
on which prices are not scufamiliar with all. But we
do claim that we cai\,£nd will meet all legitimate
competition coming from any source whatever,
and will be glad to Jfave you compare our goods and
prices with any otfier. See us about Buggies, Sur=
rys, Hacks, Wei gen 5, McCormick Binders, Twine,
John Deere Cultivators, Screen Doors and Wire, Rub=
ber Hose, Steel Sweeps and Shapes, or anything else
your needs may require. We have four car loads of
goods due to arrivewithin the next ten days. Look
out for Bargains. Yours truly,
^CjzvrvA, ^AAyv
