Explanation.

We have been telling you all summer
how we began the buggy business nine
years ago, and now probably you would
like to know how we are succeeding We
will tell You First we like to tell it be
cause it did so much for our fellow citi
zcns. and second, because il has placed rs
in the very foremost rank among the large
dealers in this great State of ours. We
believe we have the largest Wholesale
trade. and are confident We have the lar
gest retail trade also. To give you an
idea our Mr. Lieghuer has Just returned
from y Y State. where he contracted to
have twenty five thousand dollars worth
of one kind of carts made; this we believe
is the largest deal of the kind ever made
in the State. Just think of it, S25. 600
worth of one kind Of road carts, and then
think of the many other kinds we are hand
ling You would naturally ask, ''Where
do they all go," We could not tell you
here. the freight agents at the different de
pots could give you some idea, but they
90. One thing you may be certain of, that
its not buving dear and selling high that
makes them 20. Then think Of the num-
Der of Buggies. Wagons, Harness, &c,
that we sell. it would scare you to tell you
the amount we have sold since last Janu-
arv. You ask again. how does it come.
Can't others buy for cash too and sell just
aS cheap as vou do, We answer: We use
our own capital; we pay no rent; we have
not bought a bill in 9 years, that we did
not discount. You see we make this a
business exclusively and are large dealers
the advantage you will understand in an
instant when we tell you. According to
agreement among large carriage manufac
turers the price is uniform on same grades
of work. but purchasers of 30 jobs or more
get discount of 3 per cent; purchasers Of
100 Jobs or more, get discount of per
cent and purchasers of 800 jobs or more,
get discount of 10 per cent, which is the
largest discount allowed any dealer, and rs
we buy more than 800 you see We can sell
you work at the same price small dealrs
pay, and still have profit of 10 per cent
Now fellow citizens we are perfectly will
ing to give you the benefit of our advan.
tage in the market for it is your patronage
that helps Us, and it is only right that while
you stand with Us we should not betray
your confidence, and we won't Remem-
Der we are here all the time our word is as
good as gold. You know Just what you
are getting every time, we tell you plainly.
We have all kinds. the cheapest and the
very best, so can just suit you; we don't
try to get rich of one customer. We never
misrepresent Call and see lis whether
you want to buy or not.

Hinged Pigs.

Up in Forestyillc some people have been
ringing their pigs and allowing them to
run at large, fact that has created some
dissension in the ncighborhood, and caus-
ed one of our subscribers to write us about
it,
An act, passed and signed in the year
l70j, forbid hogs and pigs from running at
large in certain parts of the State, unless
they had rings in their noses and tri-angu
lar or threo-corncred yokes or bows ON
their nccks, and provided for the taking
up and conilscating of pigs not wearing
the required ornaments aud found on other
peoples promises. This act was in 1920
extended 10 the whole state, and it is q
strange fact that to-day it is yet the law of
the state, excepting for a few counties for
which it was specially repealed. The in
ference of the law is that pigs with rings
in their noses and yokcs on their nccka
can 60 where they please, and all you
have n right TO do is TO drive them of, but
if you act under this law and after proper.
ly ornamenting your porkcEs, turn them
loose, somebody viii probably be after you
before nightlall for damages under the
trcspass law.
The swine law IL one of those ancient
absurditcs yet allowed to remain in the
cole of the state. and Is generally disrc.
gardcd.
