Cash Business November 2

In accordance with a half page
announcement in The BLADE last
week signed by six of the leading
retail firms of Laclede they will
put the leash only" system in
effect at their places of business on
Monday, November 2. Carothers
& Allen, groceries and hardware;
Kraft & Brenner, groceries and dry
goods;rJ. w. Lomax & Co., dry
goods; j. B. Patrick, groceries,
hardware and furniture; j. N.
Wilson, groceries, will require cash
in all departments; Geo. M Nichols
& Son, furniture and undertaking,
will sell furniture for cash only,
but will extend the usual credit
terms in the undertaking depart
ment; and Miss Ella Hancock,
millinery, this week also announces
she will adopt the cash system on
same date and all goods must be
paid for before they leave her store.
AS the cash system goes into
effect they announce there will be
an appeciat've reduction in prices
and every customer will be bene-
fted by the change. Their prices
will be as low as the mail order
houses that have always got the
cash before the goods were ever
packed, and where there are no
losses through bad accounts and
of carrying book accounts.
The growing mail order trade
through misrepresentation by cata-
log houses has forced the merchants
all over the country to go to the
cash system in order to compete and
hold the trade at home.
Price quotations are to be mailed
to every household within the trade
district of Laclede and these mer-
chants ask that they be compared
and given careful consideration
when supplies are needed.

The Secret Out

Mrs. Ill. w. Lomax entertained
number of lady friends last Tues,
day evening in honor of her sister,
Miss Kathryn Brown-or rather il
turned out to be Mrs. Kathryn
Monnett. During the evening
festivities the guests were lined up
and each given a card with face
down and told not to look at the
other side until the word go was
given and the first to announce the
result would win a prize, but it
turned out that V. Elvert Monnett
bad captured the real prize just two
months before when he and Miss
Brown were united in marriage at
Eufaula, Oklahoma, August 81,
during their visit to his parents.
The ceremony was performed by
the'pastor OF the Christian church
at the home of the groom's parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ira Monnett. On
their return to Laclede they spent a
couple of weeks with Mrs. Mon
nett's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. H.
Brown and other relatives and Mr..
Monnett returned to his home at
Ithaca, New York, where he is
professor in Cornell university.
This is the elimination of a court
ship begun when both were students
in the Laclede high school. Mrs.
Monnett is one of Laclede's most
lovable young ladies and will be
greatly missed from the social
circles Of the town. They will be
at home at Ithaca, N. Y, after
Christmas of this year.
