the same articles that Mr.. a.. pur-
chased. When We tell him the price
he thinks, or pretends to think, it too
high, and if he has plenty of time he
will proceed to argue for a lower
figure. # we allow lower price we
have not been fair to Mr. A. He has
paid more for the same article than
Mr.. B merely because he took our
word about the value and didn't stop
to argue the case. Therefore in our
store we have only one price, the same
to all, and as low as we can afford to
take. We don't vary from it, but
everybody gets square deal.
Then when we wish to clear out our
stock to make room for new we cut
prices good and deep, but even then
everyone gets the same reduction.
But sometimes we offer a cash prize
to the one who gets US the most bust
ness during certain week or month.
A great many people have asked us
how we can afford to do it, so we'll
tell you all at the same time. It's no
secret. Suppose we make ten cents
on certain article, and sell, in the
general course of business, ten such
articles week. That gives US s1.OO
to the good. Now, if by advertising
a cash prize of $500 we succeed in SELL
ing one hundred of those articles in
the same length of time, who comes
out ahead? Why, the fellow who wins
a prize and Kopp & Bartholomew, of
course. And who loses by the trans
action? No one that we know of.
That's easy, isn't it? We believe in
making quick sales and small profits.
Therefore the more we sell the less we
are obliged to make on each article to
make a living. So we mark our
| goods to sell, mark them as low as
possible and in plain figures so you
can see just what the price really is.
Heretofore we have not had as
good an assortment in prices as we
should have had and those desiring
cheaper grade of clothing could not
find what they wanted at our store.
We beg to state, however, that as far
as possible, this objection has been
eliminated and in the future we will
do our best to have full line of all
priced goods. Nevertheless we will
not carry shoddy clothing under any
tor 1za
on it, but not a desirable reputation.
Let us take this opportunity also, of
saying that we are firm believers in
advertising and attribute our good
success partly to the liberal use of
printers ink. When we get anything
new, you are sure to know about it
if you read our ads in the local paper.
In closing, we take occasion to say
that we are in Princeton to stay and
are not here to misrepresent things to
our trade. We had much rather not
sell you at all than to sell you and
have you dissatisfied. So when we
tell you garment is thus and so,
you may depend upon it that, to our,
best knowledge and belief, it is just as
/ represented. OF course in spite of all
our care mistakes will happen, but in
that case we stand ready to make it
right by refunding your money.
And so, during the year just ahead,
and as long as we remain in business,
it will be our constant eudeavOr to-
please our customers, to give them
extra good values, to treat all alike,
to do business on the square, and by
so doing to deserve your patronage.
Yours respectfully,
| KOpp & Bartholomew.

building and one attached to the
exterior. The vault has been lined
