 JEWELRY ASSOCIATION

Calls your attention to the fact or its being the largest and most popular Jewelry Associ- ation in the United States The business is. and always has been conducted in the most candid and honorable manner. Our rapidly increasing trade is a sure guarantee of the appreciation of our patrons for this method of obtaining rich, elegant and costly goods The sudden stagnation of trade in Europe owing to the late German war, and recent di- sastrous financial crisis in Europe, has caused the failure of large number of Jewelry houses in London and Paris, obliging them to sell their goods at great sacrifice, in some instances less than one-third the cost of man. ufacturing. We have lately purchased very largely of these Bankrupt Goods, at such ex- tremely low prices that we can afford to send away finer goods, and give better chances to draw the most valuable prizes than any other establishment doing a similar business.- OUR AIM IS TO PLEASE, and we respect fully solicit your patronage, as we are conf- dent of giving the utmost satisfaction. Du- ring the past year we have forwarded num- Der of the most valuable prizes to all parts of the country. Those who patronize us will re- ceive the full value of their money, as no ar ticle on our list is worth less than One Dollar, retail and there are no Blanks. Parties deal ing with us may depend on having prompt returns, and the article drawn will be imme- diately sent to any address by return mail or express.
