dealers in Groceries, have purchased the stock oil
Mr.. Frank Miller, and removed to his old and well
known stand. This addition to their already large
Stock makes their assortment full and complete fol
this season of the year. They have also adopted
the Cash system, exclusively-which viii enable
them TO sell at very low rates, thereby making the
cash system work to the advantage of both buyer
and seller.
We believe our grocers can afford to sell upon a.
good terms as those of neighborug cities and |
