We have tried the old-lashioned long
winded credit system long enough, and
have firmly made up our minds TO adopt
the old maxim that "a nimble siXpence
is better than slow shilling" and shall
hereafter confne our business to this
maxim, and are determined that we will
sell as low as can be purchased at Chicago
or elsewhere, for cash. We are aware
that "puDing" is now the order of the
day, and think it unnecessary to say more,
but if you will give us call and examine
our stock, we shall not grumble if you do
not purchase, for without our customers
are satisfied we are giving them good bar
gains, we do not wish to sell.
