The Cash.paying Homekeeper ought
TO- have the advantage which cash brings.
The merchant saves when lie pays cash;
Why shouldn't the housewife?
I'm going to do business on basis
that saves me money, and saves it for the
buyer. too. What save; slie shall save.
[ shall buy for cash i'm future and sell
for cash. The change will benefit me. |
Shall lower prices all around.
I'm tired loosing money through bad
debts. I'm tired Of paying a collectors S
commissions. I'm tired of the expense
Of bookkeeping,
None Of these things need be. sec
tn, plainly. And they are not going
to be any longer.
If everybody paid cash, or if they
thcre'd be no trouble in business, any
way. But this loosing money from
slow payers and no-payers knocks gro
GERS profits and lie looses cash by it,
OF couse, every credit-giying grocer, it
doesn't matter who he is. has to make
M those bad debts somehow. He can't
do it only by getting bigger prices for
his goods, SO he puts the losses on those
goods. That makes the one who pays
pay more cash in order to make up for
those who don't or won't pay.
With my new arrangement l shall
lose nothing. shall have no bad debts.
Therefore l can do business with lower
prices, and that will save money for ev-
erybody who deals here.
Besides, to make things more inter
esting, shall issue checks which, after
a certain amount of goods have been
bought, can be turned in to me and 1
will accept them as 30 much cash for
anything Gly store holds.
But ask me more about that. The

Sad Letter from Texas.

We take the liberty Of publishing the

letter written to lis from A'icf, lInrri-
son County, Texas, under date Of the
14th inst, by Mrs. Amanda Holland,
widow of the late Lee Holland, who
moved to tho far West from this
County about fifteen years ago; Last
Saturday We had Il terrible storm of
wind, rain and hail, tearing up every
shinS as it came and leaving us moth

What VIC arc to do, God only knows.

and when we had to get ont Of the

eight props around it, and cooking in
an old pot resting on two bricks. The
people who arc able to get away are
leaving, for there is nothing any one
can do here to make n living. All the
crops are in mud and ruined. Where
we expected to make twenty five bales
of cotton we will not get c-half of

papers where SO many lives were lost.

big sills of the buildings were blown Il
distance of fifty yards or more. I
noticed seven plank blown into the
ground so deep and fast that you could
no: shake them. Oh, yOn can't renlizc
what terrible night we experienced.
We had no shelter to get under, and
we had to take it oil. The wind had
been blowing for three days, and on
Saturday the rain commenced falling.
