Best Of Reasons for: buying,
Merchandise atHome.

Best Of Reasons for buying, |
Merchandise at1ome.
Abraham Lincoln, wisest of
our presidents, was credited
with saying: If we buy goods
in England, that country will
have the money ard we will
have the goods. But if we buy
our goods at home, we will
have the goods and the money,
too"
This great truth applies to
local as we'll as to national con-
ditions.
If we buy our goods in Chi
cago, We have the goods and
Chicago has the money, which
may never come back to US.
But if we buy our goods in
the home town, we have
both the goods and the
money. A considerable portion
of that money remains in cir
culation in the home town,
paying for taxes, charities.
rentals, wages, farm products,
building operations, and 90 on.
The most prosperous commu-
nifty is that having in circula-
tion the greatest amount of
money per capita. The way to
maintain that circulation is to
promote the patronage of home
stores and home industries in
the highest degree possible.
