ing gold dollars for ninety cents, but
we do claim, have proved and expect to
continue TO prove that we are strictly
in the lead when 1t comes down to full
value for every dollar charged for
everything sold by us. The time has
been when the buying public Of this
section did not know as we'll as 1t does
now, and therefore we were somewhat
at disadvantage, but since we have
become better acquainted the afore-
said public has learned by experience
and observation that we are in position
to back every business proposition we
make and DO BACK THEM. We do
not expect business except on business
principles. We know that we are In
position to give greater value for the
price asked in Buggies, Wagons and

Nichols of Wildwood, Fla, who gave

that the celebrated Summers Buggy

than any other make of buggy sold on

TT has been only about six weeks since
l. we made our first sale Of Furniture,
and since our start our business has
been even better than we had anticipa-
ted that 1t would naturally be at the be-
ginning of our career. It Is hardly ne
cessary for US to express our gratifca-
ton at the result already attained, but
will say, in passing, that while we have
made a good start 1t shall be our aim
and desire to so conduct our business
as to merit and receive constantly
increasing patronage. We are forced
to the conclusion, in view Of our past
experience that we must be in line as
to the quality, style Of our goods,
prices and treatment Of the public. We
hope all within the sound Of our
voice" will at least give us look when
in need Of anything in our line.
