No mystery about it. When the Shakers
offered some time ago to give away bottle
Of their Digestive Cordial to any one who
might call at their New York office, there was
a great rush and a great many people thought
they were crazy.
Subsequent events proved it to have been q
very clever advertising transaction, for al
though they gave away thousands of bottles
it was in the end profitable; nearly every one
that took a bottle came back for more and
paid for it with pleasure. saying they had
derived better results from its use than any
other medicine they had ever use.
There is nothing 80 uniformly successful in
the treatment OF stomach troubles as the
Shaker Digestive Cordial and what is better
than all, it relieves at once.

Blankets

h
tWenty-one years OF
blanket selling we find no record of
values such as We're giving now.
Nor should we. The blanket chief
has been working the stocks nearer
and nearer to mercantile perfection
which means dependable goods,
as handsome as may be, at least
prices.
Conditions favored him last win
ter and spring. The dark hours be-
fore the dawn of better times drove
prices lowest.
If we specialized, we'd ask third
more for our blankets. Comparison
shows that we are alone in giving
full benefit to the consumer of the
prices we got. Or else, others bought
blankets late or poorly. Nobody is
charging more than blankets are
worth. We are charging a fourth
to 4 third less than today's worth.
