Did you know he has The nobbiest
store and the best selected stock in
the west.
Did you know that eleven years
experience in a new country gives
him decided advantages.
Did you know that your trade will
be a great object to him, and that he
expects to make his 2oOGs and prices
an object to you.
1t is good judgmen Mt in you to place
your dollars where they will do you
the most good and after a careful
inspection of my stock and prices, if
you do not think that I merit your
patronage, [ do not want it. All I
have to say is this: give me a trial.
l pay no rents. Ny expenses all told
are a mere triffe. Ny goods are
bought for cash and I flatter myself
that 1 can sell cheaper than any Iner-
chant who does credit business.
My stock is fresh, attractive and
complete in everything belonging to
general merchandise, and I shall FL
ways pay the highest market price iOr
