difference be-
tween our prices for toilet
articles and the prices
asked for the same thing
at most stores you're likely
to be surprised at the saw
ing that's to be made in a
twelve month; a few cents
saved on a cake of soap; a
like amout on bay rum,
perfumery, sponges, brush
es, powders and the other
necessary things which you
are buying all the time rep
resents at the end of the
year quite an appreciable
sum.
The greatest obstacle
this department has to sur
mount is the impression
that because prices are low
er here than at other places
the quality cannot be the
same. Time is gradually
removing all mistaken idea
of this sort, however, as it
removes prejudice and
wrong impressions on all
other subjects. There's
one Colgate, you know,
only one Pears and one
Lubin; because their pro-
ducts happen to be sold at
a "dry goods store" it
doesn't follow that they're
not genuine.
When your supply of
these things are exhausted
make it a time for testing
the truth of our assertion
that the prices here are low
er than what you're accus-
toned to paying.
