THE LARGEST AND BEST APP.
P0lN led DRY GOODS
STORE IN THE STATE.

DESTROYS of securing the goodwill
and confidence Of the public we sub
init the following facts for the con.
sideration Of the people:
1st. We buy and sell for Cash,
and thus avoid bad debts, which the
best-managed credit business in the
world will incur more or less.
I'd. We have but one price.
Every article is marked in plain
figures, from which there is no de-
Walton, except to wholesale custo-
mers. A child 7 or 8 years Of age
will be served as well, and may buy
with as much confidence as the most
expert shopper.
Sd. We will make no statement
either in the newspapers or else
where but what we will back up to
the letter, and we will guarantee
perfect SATISFACTION or refund
the money.
4th. Our stock is large, well Sc
lected, and purchased at the recent
decline In prices. We do not pro-
fess to keep $500 shawls, or $40
silks, but we do keep what the ma
jority want. The number of people
who want very expensive goods these
hard times are very few indeed.
9th. Our expenses are compar-
atively small, our business being
conducted in the most careful and
economical manner; in this respect
we have the advantage of Philadel-
phia merchants, our store expenses
being SO much less than theirs.
9th. For the above reasons, and
others that might be mentioned, we
confidently assert that we are in a
position to sell all kinds of dry goods,
'ilks, shawls, dress goods, housekeep-
ng goods, hosiery, gloves, UNDER
wear, ribbons, laces, small wares,
