Cash Versus Credit
CAUSE AND EFFECT.

1t is usually understood that II per-
sons pay cash for what they buy, they
will always get the lowest prices And
save money on their purchases that
naturally be the case. We ask the
question is 1t always the case? Inves-
tlgation and experience prove that it
Is not always true. There are reasons
for 1t. One of the most common Is the
cry of some dealers. That good quail
ity must bring high prices and every
thing sold at less than their prices is
of poorer quality. I'VE answer this old
claim and argument. That depends
who is the dealer and how he conducts
his business. Some people really be-
lieve this story amt say that good
goods COST mnehi more, etc. All
things being equafitis a fact, but we
protest and claim an things are not
equal. Either in buying or selling or
conducting a business, some mems
greed runs away with their best judg-
ment and they say | bought this lot of
goods away down. My shrewdness
and command of experience and cash
should make me every cent | can get
for them. Profits are piled on as
much as the goods will bear and the
customer has to pay the outside price.
Some Zone says that it is fine stroke
of business. Another dealer buys a
lot of goods at great bargain, away
under regular prices and he figures at
how low a price he can sell these
goods and win more customers. II
this price is lowered does that de-
.preeiate the quality? You can choose
Which store you will patronize, and you
can feel that when you buy from the
Bargain Store you are getting the
quality, the weight and the values at
the lowest prices. We treat you on
this principle. Shrewd, well posted
buyers know these facts and profit ac-
cordingly. Do you ever consider who
you are benefitting by your patronage.
Be frank and admit that you yourself
are the principal one that must get the
good of your money. Then why do
you use so little judgment and know
ledge when you pay two, three, four
more times the price for goods than
you would have to pay us for them?
You may doubt this claim. Well, we
can and do prove i. every day on ev-
cry sale, but some people do not care
nor will not investigate our challenge,
that we sell goods of all kinds at low
er prices than any other house, quality
considered.

to our civilization. See the suffering |
it causes, the poverty it makes, the |
hard times that are traced to it. The |
poor, hard working man Is ground |
down beneath the high prices that are
piled on all he has TO buy. The mis-
cry. the suffering and much of the
crime is traced to 1t and still the
great majority of cur people think it
is a benefit and blessing, when it
proves the opposite. We are prepared
to help all to lower prices, TO make
