THAT COUPON.

Well, what did you think of our ad-
vertisment in Mondays ARGUS?
Pretty clever scheme. don't you
think?
Did you clip that coupon?
Judging by the number who pre-
sented coupons in part payment for
the purchase of shoes the idea was
not only clever, but opportune. Pos
sibly some of our patrons overlooked
the announcement in Mondays paper
(Aug. 2l), and for their benefit we
explain Just what the advantages of
the coupon are and reprint this much
of the original advertisement. Here's
the plan:
You clip the coupon and come to
our store TO buy shoes. Nobby shoes,
swell shoes, stylish shoes. serviceable
shoes-yes, that's the K nd of shoes
we sell and with each cash purchase
your coupon represents 20 per cent.
No trouble to show shoes. No
trouble to send out shoes on approval.
No trouble to answer questions about
shoes. We're in the shoe business.
We never advertise fact and then go
back on it. and when we said that this
little coupon would only appear once,
that was the whole truth.
Therefore, if you would profit by
this bit of liberality on our part
look over your Mondays ARGUS and
cut out the coupon.
It's worth money to YOU One
fifth the gross amount of any cash
purchase you make at this store prior
to Sept. will pay you for the
trouble of looking it up, don't you
think?
For instance: Suppose you buy a
pair of s. shoes, the coupon is worth
20 per cent or one-fifth. in other words
you get the shoes worth regularly s.
for the coupon and 81. Simple plan,
isn't It?
Most anybody will pay cash to save
20 per cent. Do you see where we
grind our ak?
No charges, no bad account, no
books to buy. no collector to pay, no
losses-consequence-you make the
saving.
Do you buy your shoes here?
Certainly the above facts coupled
with the statement that our stock en-
braces the newest creations in foot
wear are sufficient to warrant your
most earnest consideration

Mr.. DEERE NOW CONTROLS.
Moline and st. Louis Companies to Be
Capitalized at GS.ooO,000.

Moline and st. Louis Companies to Be
Capitalized at ss.ooO,ooo.
A controlling interest in the Man
sur & Tebbets Implement company, of
St. Louis, has been purchased by c.
III. Deere, of the Deere & Mansur CON-
pany, Moline.
A new corporation will be made of
the two concerns. The capital stock
will be %, 600, 900. C. H. Deere will
be president, L. B. Tebbetts vice
president, and G. S. Tebbetts secre-
| tary.
The deal has been contemplated for
several months. A number of sales
men will be dispensed with, as the
two companies have been rivals in the
| same field.
Both the factory of the St. Louis
company and that in Moline will con-
tinue to run full time, and n new fac
tory may be erected in St. Louis. as
| both companies are behind in their
orders.
Mansur & Tebbetts last year did a
business of about So, O00, 900. The
Moline company is said to have done
as well.
The snew corporation will practical
ly control the implement trade of the
west" says the st. Louis Republic.
The old concerns were the largest in
this part of the country. Their fac
tories are the biggest in the world, so
far as the manufacture of agricultural
i'm plements is concerned.
One factor in the combination was
the big corn crop. The demand for
corn huskers and shelters has been so
great that both factories have been
running overtime. 1t is believed that
by the consolidation both firms will
be given over completely to the man
facture of this class of machinery.
The Moline concern is The oldest in
the west. Mr.. Deere, who is also
president of the Deere Plow company,
is a representative man of the west.
He is greatly interested in South
American trade, and is inclined to be-
lieve that the country offers a great
| field to the American manufacturer.
1t is said that the new concern will
make a speciality of trade with the
southern continent.
The Mansur & Tebbetts Carriage
company, which is controlled by the
Mansur & Tebbetts Implement COM
pany, and Differed by the same men
| L. b. Tebbetts vice president and
treasurer, and G.. S. Tebbetts secre-
| tary-will be included in the CONSOLE
dalton, so it is reported.
