A Visitor to Richmond

N iSiiOt ~
DURING the past week was piloted
around by a resident who did
not trade at Meyers. and after
a visit to many other places
durino which the visitor did
some haphazard shopping had
virtually decided to leave her
shopping of until she returned
home to Atlanta, until by acct
dent she wandered into The
Meyers Store. why didn't
you bring me here first, was
the remark she almost immedi>
atelv made. and As a seeming
rebuke to the resident of Rich
mond who did not give her a
chance to stop here, she spent
throughout the different de-
partments of this store one
hundred and eleven dollars,
an amount Of cash which
would have been taken from
Richmond. We mention this
incident to strengthen your
faith in the undeniable advan-
tage of shopping in a store run
on the principles Of The Meyers
Store, enjoying as it does the
benefits of a great syndicate of
purchasers, whose buyers are
searched for by manufacturers
and importers having special
lots to close out and to whom
the great losses occasioned by
the sweeping reductions of lines
of goods which are bought too
heavily or do not sell as readily
as anticipated are put nou9hl,
whereas to smaller concerns
they would mean the curtail-
ment Of capital. This weeks
store news tells of just such
things. Many new special lots
bought under price because of
certain trade conditions and
many extraordinary reductions
because ofsurplus stock.
Samples will be sent and mail
orders filled as usual, though
we advise your quick decision,
as we are buster by double than
the same time last year, and lots
are sold out just that much
quicker.
