The Pure Food Grocery Co., who
are ever up to the minute in i'm
provements. and always looking to
the interests of their patrons, this
week put in the only visible"
refrigerator there is in the State
a long glass counter it looks to be-,
but in reality it is a refrigerator
that keeps everything placed in it
at the proper temperature. While
this is a great advantage, the main
benefit of such refrigerator is
that the customers Of the store are
able to see just what they are get
| ting and the stores benefit comes
in increased sales things that
are on display always sell faster
than those that are tucked away,
Ialthough everything in the Pure
Food store has been on the move
ever since they opened for business
a few weeks ago..
