From Credit to Cash

On account of the advance in
the price of merchandise, it re.
quires so much capital to keep
our stock up that we are obliged
to change our business into a
cash business. My health is
poor and | cannot see to keep
books, and to hire a bOokkeeper
makes more expense, and every
store that does a credit business
has some loss from bad accounts
BY selling for cash, we can sell
you merchandise a little cheap
er; therefore, we want you to
make our store headquarters
and we will try to make it to
your interest to trade With us,
by selling our merchandise at
bottom prices. We thank you
for the liberal patronage you
have given US during the last go
years and still solicit your busi-
ness. J. D. Reynolds,
