TRADE.
Competititi0n is what Keeps it
Alive.


And the firm of Lewis Brothers make
it lively for their competitors of Lin
den and Highland. From the very
first day they opened their stores in
Linden and Highland they took the
lead in Low Prices. and they and they
are still keeping up the warfare on
high prices. and to judge from the very
liberal encouragement they receive
from the people Of those towns and
neighboring country, they do paying
business. Their stocks of Dry Goods,
Ready-made clothing for Men. Youths.
Bows and Children. Boots and Shoes.
Hats and Caps, Groceries, &c. &c, is
the Largest and Best Selected ia those
towns, and their prices can't be UNDER
sold by any firm in Iowa county, how
ever large. Anything and everything
you buy Of Lewis Brothers, You can
depend on it that only one price will
be asked, and that is the lowest al
ways. Once you deal with Lewis
Brothers at Linden or Highland, You
will find it to you advantage to 90
there a second time. 15-1w
