ENRICH
A Plain TALK ;
ON /,
Pure FOOD.
. Believing that many who 4
buy from US part Of their
table supplies would like I
to buy ali, and that many !
7 others, who are not Gus J
toners, would like to be- Y
} come so, we shall give in
as few words as possible (
an idea of our stock, our 4
methods of doing buSi- !
ness, and our prices. J
Never had money as
large purchasing power Y
} as at present, and we are I
! meeting the market in all G
departments.
Buying food is different 4
from buying anything +,
else. A bad purchase Of J
D wearing apparel means a Y
waste of money. A pur-
chase of adulterated food {
brings sickness, with its 4
Y attendant discomfort and
Y expense. In buying food, J
D then, care should be first \
D taken to know that it is
pure and wholesome. The
market is full Of adulter- (
ated foods, which are Of
Y fered for sale simply be-
= cause they pay a larger
0 profit to all who handle
. them. Our aim has always
< been, and still is, to sell
Y only such artic eS as we
v know to be good.
y To be good an article
o need not be the highest
O priced, and it is this point
' we wish to bring out. We
v OFFER A VARIETY.
" If you want the best ar
G. tiCles that the markets Of
Q the world afford we have
. them at THE LOWEST
M PRICES commensurate to
z their value. If you want
v good articles at LOWER
Y PRICES, we have them.
0 We CAN FURNISH ALL
~ necessary table supplies
A at prices LOWER THAN
y THE LOWEST.
y If, after trying US, you
find thaty can do better
v elsewhere we, of course,
2 cannot expect to serve
@ you. But, if you are pay
O ing as much or more, and
y would like to benefit by
Y our long experience as
v buyers of food, and our
v facilities to serve you
q promptly, we can then
n hope for your patronage.
a Not as occasional buyers
N but as steady customers.
