Individuality In Musicians,

The musical performer has a two

plement and must not contradict.

indicate on paper more than the mere
shell of the music, but, also, never
imagine anything that the composer
might have indicated, but did not
Might not this train of thought be

Notice.

We wish to announce that on and
after June list we will sell coal only
on cash basis. This will mean
cash at the yard or on delivery. In
doing this we are able to reduce the
price on coal, not only during the
storage season, but as long as we
are selling for cash. In asking this
we are sure that our customers agree
with us it being a strictly business
proposition.

Coal For Cash.

We have been selling coal now
for about years and have tried to
keep our customers in coal at the
lowest price we could and have
enough margin to do business. Here
tofore we have always done a credit
business, but beginning with June
1st., we have decided to reduce the
price of coal $1.00 per ton and do
a cash business only. In doing a
credit business we find that we have
a good deal of loss, and this loss of
course Is paid by those who do pay
their bills, and we are required to
keep about 100000 tied up in the
coal business. BY doing strictly
cash business we do away with the
margin necessary to stand for losses
and TO pay interest upon the cap
itnl invested. This rule will be the
same to EVERYONE and there will
be NO exceptions. AS heretofore
we will handle the best coal avail
able, and can supply you with Rock
Springs, Hlawatha or Castle Valley
coal. Remember we are at the
same old place, 9th and Main. Coal
$3.50 per ton delivered, 1000 pounds
to the ton.
