IT IS BUSINESS-NoT WAR TALK
AT GOLDMAN'S

Mr.. B. Goldman, in opening bust
ness at Klein's old stand, has accept
ed the name bestowed upon it by the
committee appointed to select a
name, and in two-page advertise
ment makes his bow to the public,
and tells in very plain, business-like
way what he has to offer to his GUS
toners.
The committee has given his new
place of business the name of "Ocala' S
Bargain House" He has adopted
that name in the sense that it is a
bargain house." and he is determin-
ed that that name shall be bestowed
upon it, not only by the committee of
award, but by every citizen of Marion
county who becomes a customer.
The goods for this new store have
been carefully selected, and the pric-
es of at least one hundred articles
are named?
Mr.. Goldman is determined to cir
cumnavigate and put to fight all talk
of depression and hard times by max
ing the prices of his goods so cheap
that they will Offset and make good
times" take the place of hard
times"
Read these prices, and you will be
convinced that "Ocala's argain
House" is properly named.
Mr.. B. Goldman is entitled to an en-
comium in his efforts to keep up bust
ness activity in Ocala, so hold up his
hands in his efforts. Ask yourself the
question, 'Why Pay More?" and an
swer it by visiting his Bargain
House" and ascertaining whether or
not he is justified in making that
phrase a part of himself.

STRIklNGLY IMPRESSIVE AID.
VERTISEMENT

The advertisement printed in this
weeks Weekly Banner is one of the
most striking that we remember to
have ever seen in a country weekly
Judged solely on it's typographical ap-
pearance, a printer would say that ii
is entitled to the "blue ribbon" We
do not hesitate to say that Mr.. Char
ley Woods, the foreman of the Week
ly Banner, has done himself proud in
handling this advertisement. 1t is
neat and shows excellent taste.
In saying what he wants to say in
striking and admirable manner Mr..
Marcus Frank has struck the key
note. The phraseology is fine, and
from purely business point of view
it is a real achievement.
We hope that our readers will look
up the paper and scan the advertise
ment, because we believe it will be
to their interest to do so.
