Our line OF watches is the largest and
most beautiful in make in Grand juno

style is to combine the two and sell for
the same price that others sell the infer

The majority Of the diamonds that
have been sold in this city in the past

have given perfect satisfaction. No one
need fear to be called down on the cut

when placed in comparison with other
goods anywhere.
Now let us make to you plain little
business talk. We have the capital,

the largest etock OF diamonds, watches
and jewelry in the city.
Remember that you reckon without
your host when you don't see u. before
buying anything in our line. We are
not in any cut throat business to sell
goods for nothing, but we believe with
our trade relations we can buy goods
cheaper and sell goods cheaper and of
better quality than our competitors.
This is an open statement Ii it is not
true it can readily be disproved. We
