In bookkeeping experience has proven that
Cash is the right way and Credit the wrong
way. Taking the buyers Cash for goods and
charging on the books the same goods at the
same price to credit buyers who may pay
promptly or never pay alta is simply making
the Cash Buyer pay for the Credit System,
with its expenses of Bookkeepers, Collectors,
Bad Debts, Stationery. Postage and a number
of other Costly Evils attending such a system
which largely increase the cost of the goods to
every buyer in evety retail store that in any
way engages in the Credit System.
The many attempts TO establish stores with
two prices-one for Cash and another for Credit
has in every instance proven a hopeless fail
ure. On the other hand the One Price Cash
System has proven a Decided Success, and Is
still growing in favor. 1t deals n-handed
with every one and materially Reduces the
Cost Of Goods. During the past week we have
marked down every article in the store to meet
the One Price Cash System.
Under this system we guarantee every arti
Gle sold, and if unsatisfactory the purchaser
can return the same in good order within fy'
days and get the money back.

contest for the Mayorality as we have a
Mayor good for a year and half yet, who
