Candy Purchased Here
Tomorrow will be Fresh
on Christmas.

BY giving our manufacturers instruc-
tions to send us the very last candy they
make and by not shipping it until the very
last moment, we are able to offer you the
best and freshest candy obtainable. In
fact, some of the candy for Saturdays
selling was not in this building when this
advertisement was written. That shows
how fresh our goods will be.
