No Disappointment Here.

This store grows more popular day
by day The goods we sell and the
prices we make can be relied upon.
People appreciate these facts, and our
ever growing trade attests it. Hun
dreds upon hundreds of pleased Gus
toners spread the truth; the sales show
it. One thing we want to impress upon
the public mind and emphasize is this:
We fully realize that some unscrup-
ulOuS houses advertise merchan-
disc without delivering the goods,
making many hySterical statements.
Claiming at about every other week to
buy out some great wonderful eastern
department store, and all such mis-
leading statements, only used for ad-
vertising purposes. Such INSCRIPTIONS
houses as this, that have no more re-
gard for the truth than in the instances
sighted, only insult the intelligence of
the people when asking them to believe
such rot. One thing more we wish to
impress upon the public mind: This
store never initiates values-when we
advertise an article worth $1.00 selling
for 40 cents, we deliver the goods. We
do not get a handful of auction bought
trash, put 1t out on a counter, sell one
yard to a. customer and advertise the
most wonderful, stupendous, gigantic
purchase on record. 1t is very amusing
to read this same purchase week after
week, only changing the name. and
we wonder if all the eastern depart
ment stores won't be sold out in the
near future. What fools these eastern
merchants must be to sell their stock
Of merchandise at Csc to soc on a dollar,
and so forth, only of which appears in
the paper, and such a deal was never
realized. While such misleading adver-
Using will do for a time, we think it is
time to cry halt and expose this fraud.
One thing, every item advertised at
this store is bright new fresh goods.
Sometimes we take a whole lot, buy
ing in the way that many excellent
dealers cannot plank down the cash be-
fore delivery, and we do not ask you
to buy until you are fully satisfied
that you are getting the best goods for
the least money.

features are:
First, that the firing by the Russian

the presence Of japanese torpedo
boats. The Russian delegates inform
the Associated Press that they pos
sess this proof In the most positive
and overwhelming form.
Second. that even IL the Russians
were not attacked they believed they
we're attacked. and therefore the de.
fensiye measures we're in absolute
good faith.
Third, at most II was an accident

are extreme and analogous to the Brit

and sinking the battleship Victoria
and the recent firing OF a British
warship upon a ooasting vessel dur
