! In yesterday mornings issue
of The World there appeared an
! advertisement for ali out-of-town
firm which was occupying one of
\ the rooms in local hotel in Tul-

! Chandise.
Owing to the policy of The Tul-

publish any of this class of ad-
vcrtising. and further, the fact
that in a majority of cases the
\ prices charged by such people
are much more than the same
merchandise can be bought for
from the local merchant, and
furthermore. when a purchase is
made from this source there is
absolutely no responsibility at
tached to such transaction. If
your goods are unsatisfactory,
you suffer the consequences as
the party who sold same to you
is gone. This advertisement sue
ceeded in getting into the col
umns of The World by pure acci-
dent.
Z The Tulsa World wants to
state to its readerss and request
of them not to patronize under
any circumstances any of the at
-tractive offers that are made by
this class OF people, but on the
other hand to make their pur-
chsses from some of the thou
