Modern Advertising

The "Old Timers" are perhaps not cogni-
SAINT OF the fact that the more they talk "a
people about our cheap auction trash-just
so much free advertising we get. We are be-
levers in telling everybody what we have
through the medium Of newspapers, and a.
the same time we fully appreciate the long.
winded credit concerns In helping TO boom
us along-free OF charge-by calling us Chea ?
John, &c.
1t Is certainly no fault of ours that they can
not legitimately compete with us. IL only
requires money, brains and pluck.
To the average person 1t sounds most alb
surd to hear our brothers-in trade trying 10
make believe that the quality OF their goods
is simon-pure and that BIllmyer's stun Il
nothing but old inferior auction trash. We
are most assuredly here TO stay, and IL Is
barely plausible that we would offer only
cheap and shoddy goods, which would in time
keep people away from our ranch; but the
people won't stay away. They are blessed
with good, sound, common sense (at least
good many OF them. and are fiocking in
with their cash more lively than ever and to
each and every purchaser we extend the priv
ilege 10 compare our goods both as to quality
and price with those OF any house they may
choose.
Why can't we sell the best goods cheaper
than the old fogy credit concerns? We have
the Doodle; we know little about buying
we have no books, and last but by no means
