A BAD PLAN.
AN ASKING PRICE.
A TAKING PRICE.

The plan of store keepers having an asking
one more than another and not refusing
reasonable offer is bad plan for buyers.
The store keeper alone knows the lowest
never ret them for less and often Jay more.
This plan is justified on the ground that
some people won't buy unless they get some
thing Knocked of or thrown IN, ana some
will only bug where they can get credit,
some never pay and that must be made mp Dy
charging more TO those who do pay.
our one price cash plan avoids al such
methods, marks in plain figures the lowest
lash price on every article offered and moth
ing less can buy II. On every article the
buyer gets the advantage of the discounts we
make in buying for cash and the expenses
and losses saved in not selling en- credit.
The saving on these two items being salts

They state that Redfeld can't deliver

viii goalmost soiidly for Pierre. They say
they have acquired enough intrest in
Pierre to work for it early and late until

get nine out of every ten votes there
