Corresponding to this great change
in the manner of doing business now
a days, it becomes necessary for the
purchasing portion of this community
to look into and inquire into this in
expressible conflict now raging be.
tween high prices and presents ON the
one hand, and low prices, good goods
and an equal benefit to all, on the
other. Now take your pencil and fig.
urs. Suppose the parties who offer
you presents take in one hundred dol
lars per day, which is the average of q
good grocery store, and set the day for
the distribution of presents 100 days
ahead, this makes $4,000. Now, if
you get ticket with a dollars worth
of goods, you stand one chance in ten
thousand to draw the prize-a very
poor chance. Now you can go to Van
Ness and buy your goods. and in 100
days you can save enough to buy the
best present that is offered in some
places as an ,inducement to draw your
trade, and in that way you do not
have to pay for present and have
some one else get it. If you want a
present with q pound of tea, that is
easo enough, for tea can be bought at
wholesale as low as 1Oc per pound, and
the ones who give you present will
make none. but if ysu want GOOD tea
you cannot get present with it, for
the tea VanNess sells for SOC will cost
any other dealer 45c per pound to buy.
VanNess buys his tea direct from the
importer, thereby saving five or six
profits. He has an immense trade, as
anyone can see, fer his store is most
always crowded with customers from
morning till eve. It is a well known
fact that every town has one store that
takes the lead, and by the way people
crowd around VanNess' we should say
he is the rising star, and the best rec
ommend he can have he already has,
by devoting ten years of his time in
our midst, in honest, hard work-a big
thing in his favor is this, no man can
come forward and say he ever wronged
him out of one cent.
