started it. We have decided to
start it, and now have carload of
goods coming from the station.
A store that sells good fresh

honestly with it's customers will

We are going to sell groceries

a fortune in a few months by charg-
ing exhorbitant prices, knowing
that it would be inconvenient for
you to go to some other town and
would pay a little more rather than
do it
We want to build up perma-
nent business in Holly and intend
to do it by adopting the motto,
"Small profits and whole lot Of
them"
Our stock is new, just arrived,
and by next Monday we will have
it opened up and ready for busi-
ness.
We are located in the Holly Meat
Market, which we have enlarged for
the addition of the grocery bust
ness, but we will continue to handle
fresh meats, poultry, fish and oys-

prayer of Christian Science that heals

no means except that which is purely

would do.
