10 Good Reasons Why You
Should Buy Your Goods
From Us!

II Buying in large quantities for two
very busy stores secures the lowest price.
q Selling strictly for cash prevents US
uai credit losses.
81 Selling for cash also enables us tobuy
for cash. and cash produces bargains.
Al Our capital is turned quickly because
of large sales, none of il being tied UP in
long standing accounts.
8. No bookkeeper's and cashiers sala-
ries to pay.
s. Mo failure to charge goods purchased
N. Selling for cash takes less time than
selling for credit.
8. No expensive order man whose sal
ary must be added to the cost Of the goods
to the consumer.
81 Stock purchased daily which insures
fresh goods and secures quick returns.
fO.When we have made a reduction in
price. ought we not to have the business in
preference to the man who will meet the
price rather than lose the customer?
