Commencing with July /, l shall dc
a strictly cash business. No goods
will be charged after that date. The
impossibility of collecting most ac-
counts when due coupled with the
fact that drygoods are now sold at
such very close prices, induces me to
change to the cash system. My goods
will be marked so low, that the prices
will not fail to attract all cash buyers.
