1t is a simple thing, some

Any Dry Goods is Dry Goods. True
so any coffee is coffee, SO any -four
is flour; but grades differ. If you un-
derstand Dry Goods as we'll as you
do coffee and -four, it would be easy
to determine good from bad. But you
don't-how should you? When y g.
are going to buy an article whose
value you don't know, you pick out
reliable house to trade with and trust
to their honesty and reputation;
therefore do so when buying Dry
Goods. Now is the best time to pur-
chase.
