Look! 100 Lovely Summer Dress

The man whoi always stalking" his reputa-
ton, would not as rule be very much out
should he lose 1t.
Sometimes man or store will slide quite
stretch. on a reputation acquired without any
reliable or logical reasons for it's existence, but
there always comes time when even good
rputation will squash out" unless there Is the
right character back of it.
We have built up a good reputation for fair
dealing, dependable merchandise and liberal
policy. il n. ]
And whenever we reach a time when we do
not want to improve the service of our store
we'll get just what we deserve.
But, if there is any chance for Improvement,
you may safely wager all the spuds in the patch
that we will be on the ground before the dew is
off the vines.
Improve the service is the watchword.
