TT Is well known to all that during the
i past two years. in fact for years previous
hard times has been gradually tightening
his grip upon us that our incomes grew
beautifully less" and as a result We must
practice greater economy. Then the ques-
tion arises, how can this be done? the an
swer to which has prompted the writing of
this short article. Nearly two years since,
we engaged in the Grocery and Provision
business in this place, and how well we
have succeeded in bringing the price of
that class Of goods to their proper value,
AZ sold in neighboring cities, we leave to
the surrounding community to decide f.;
enough tor us to know that our business
has increased beyond our most sanguine
anticipations. To accommodate the libe-
raj patronage extended to us, we have re-
moved to the large and commodious rooms
known as the HRslet Building, whero we
have largely increased our stock, both as
to quantity and variety, having added
Tinware, Boots and Shoes, Gloves, No
tiOns, and the staple articles of Hardware
to our former stock OF Groceries and Pro-
visions, Flour and Feed. To parties pur-
chasing of US in quantity we offer liberal
discount on our low retail prices and will
duplicate prices of goods I'm our line,
wherever purchased. Cash paid for grain.
