The Outstanding
Aim of This Store

is to make life easier and worthier
to all who are employed under its
roof and to be of actual service in
several ways to all who enter our
doors.
1t is always showing the larg-
est and freshest stock for selec-
tons, which is easily explained,
for whenever a double quantity
is sold it requires double replen-
ishing, and, therefore, it can al
ways be the freshest in supplies.
The larger quantity buyer
nearly always has advantages in
purchases some time or other.
Be free to enjoy the Store for
yourself and your visiting friends,
who may enjoy the music and tea
