AND
ONE PRICE

We feel that the day has
come when it should no longer
be necessary for a house to
have at the head Of its advsr-
tisement the words some price,"
as we cannot conceive how any
house can charge one customer
enc price and another customer
a higher price, and reconcile
themselves that they are doing
business based upon the law of
equity, because in many eases
the person who pays the highest
price is less able to do 30. Our
reason for mentioning the above
fact is that Wilmington is
rapidly growing at this time and
strangers coming into our city
are naturally DESTROYS Of know
ing where to go to buy their Car
pets and Dry goods at the low
est market rates and should be
as equally anxious to avoid de-
ception Of any kind
We have Of late had ousto-
nsrs to say to US that a certain
House had offered them Tapes
try Brussels Carpets which they
were selling for 81 Is at Sl.0O
because they wanted a number
of yards. Wewill here try and
show tho inconsistency Of such
statements. In the first place
there is no one price House that
asks over Sl.20 for any Tapes
try Carpet and that is "Rox-
bury" and they cost over $l.00
at the agents, again another
house has been asking 81 10 for
Extra Super Ingrsins, but when
tsld that We were selling the
same for 3l.0o las they have
frequently been they would re-
ply by saying that ours were
not as good, but prove to their
customers that we were being
miSrepeesented by sonsenting
to take Sl.00 before they would
let thea 90 Out
