at gives me pleasure to say that the
samples of Food taken from your stock
all proved perfectly pure"
A member of the Food Commission
addressed us as above. We knew IT
before he said it, but it must give adj
ditional satisfaction to our patrons and
customers to know that we are all agreed
as to the verdict.
This is the time of year when people
are blessed with good appetites:
When you are married and house-keep-
ing. that's the time for solid comfort you
know; if you don't know it you ought to.
You should also know where to obtain
the Solid Comforts, pure and whole
some.
A clean and well-arranged store makes
goods more palatable.
Our stock is always in perfect condi-
ton, no decayed fruits and vegetables,
no foul smelling chicken coops and
doubtful eggs. We guarantee every
thing we sell and we sell everything as
low as the character of goods will per-
nit.
The reputation of our Flour, Coffee,
and Butter is not confined to Raleigh.
We have nice outside trade which is
constantly increasing.
We would be pleased to quote you
finest packages of canned goods, pro-
visions, pickles, condiments and sauces,
foreign fruits, raisins and nuts, domestic
fruits and vegetables, foreign and do
