Liar

II HERE are good many kinds of liars beside the
campaign liar. There are, however, some
things which are manifesty on the square that the
man who cries Liar in connection with them merely
makes himself ridiculous. One of the things whose
worth cannot be questioned is the printing which
comes from The Missoulian Print Shop. This work
speaks for itself; it is its own best advertisement
The man who gets the habit Of procuring his print
ing at The Missoulian Shop is satisfied; he knows he
the best, merely by sending in his order and stating
what he wants This is the experience of hundreds
Of business men in western Montana. They like the
printing which they get from The Missoulian Print
Shop because it is the square. 1t is claimed for it
that is hgh-class and is high-class That's the
whole story-that and the further fact that The Mis-
soulian is home institution. When you patronize
The Mssouian you get the right goods and you help
home folks who are helping you all the time.
