OFFER

Several Oskaloosa people have al
ready taken advantage of the offer
being made by T K Smiths Jewelry
/ H ouse, and have purchase d
watches, an the instalIment plan in
accordance with the remarkable offer
being made by Smiths. The scheme
is an easy one, so easy that, If it were
not made by a highly reputable and
honorable firm, 1t would be classed
as an attempt to dispose of some I'M
popular goods. But Smiths offers
the whole stock of watches In the
establishment, reserving not single
one, in this installment plan. This
stock includes all the standard makes
of watches, in all styles and sizes.
They are new goods, bought direct
from the manufacturers, and Smiths
is determined to sell them on the in
stallment plan, but FOR PRICES AS
Low AS GAN BE MADE ANY
WHERE. Cash prices, in fact, to be
paid in installments.
Itisn t often that such remarkable
offer Is made by a reputable house in
city the size of Oskaloosa. Some
times alluring inducements are held
out to buyers by mail order houses,
but their is little independence put in
these because there is no opportuni-
ty to select goods nor to test their
dependable qualities. At Smiths
however, the buyer is privileged to
inspect hundreds of first class wat
ches, choose the one he likes best,
pay dollar down and the balance, a
dollar week, using the watch all
the time. Every watch is guaranteed
by the manufacturer and in addition
1t has Smiths personal guarantee.

cash deals, the plan of payment be-
ing arranged simply for the conven-
fence of those who want to buy wat
ches. The people of Oskaloosa are
invited to investigate this remarkable
offer and to take advantage of it.
