Some people would rather have their pock- cts picked than be victimized by excessive charges, and we're not surprised at it, for the pick-pocket risks his liberty and must take the consequences if he happens to be caught. No fair minded purchaser can object to pay ing price which leaves for the seller a margin of moderate profit, but it is very different matter when the buyer is called up- on to foot an exorbitant bill. We are satisfied only when we completely satisfy our custom CTS. We can make it to your interest to deal with us because our system of doing business permits no extravagances and we come close to cost every time. For very little above it we are now selling Crockery, Glassware, Toilet Articles, watches, Jewelry N silverware, Fishing Tackle. Pipes and.Smoking Bets, Drugs, M esli- cines, Perfumes A C.
