;, A Card To the Public.
r Having relocated in Cottonwood
Of / have now opened a general mdst
o store in the Heartburg block. Ap
n preciating the fact that the condi.
e tion of the times demands that the
1. purchasing power of dollar should
1t be necessarily greater than in pas
u years, l have opened strictly cast
d store; having marked my goods al
of prices lower than ever before seer
in this country. The peoples purses
must, of necessity, have double the
- purchasing power of year ago
~ '1 The times demands it. Being thus
~ ~ equal to meet the demands Of thu
os ~, times, l am prepared to sell al
VI kinds of General Mdse., hardware
W doors and windows, dry goods, boot
~ ~ and shoes, groceries, etc., at pric'
u that will justify the people of al
=. % parts Of the prairie to call on nj
- - before purchasing their fall ant
&c &C winter supplies.
