go down to Oakfield town just stop a

Three Smiths, with a figure 3! Inside
the building, beneath this sign, are
goods belonging to every line, a gener-

from the roof clean down to the floor
and the prices are cut so close, they

away while produce or cash is taken in
pay, and there are real live bargains at
Smiths each day. From a fine toothed
