No More Worries Over
Excessive Coal Bills

1t is not generally known that even the
small coal consumer can have his coal
shipped direct from the mines, thus saw
ing the profits that otherwise would go to
wholesaler and retail dealer, besides saw
ing hauling expense. OF course, big man.
nfacturers and other large consumers
have always bought this way, but the
man who buys only enough for his house
hold is now in position to take advantage
of the same purchasing privileges. The
welI-known BERNICE COAL CO, SIS
Como, Building. Chicago, is doing an
enormous business in supplying small
consumers-as well as the big ones with
all grades of hard and soft coal at NINE
prices.
That these customers are highly pleased
is evidenced by the letters they write
after receiving and trying their coal. The
following are extracts from several such
letters: Have found your coal entirely
satisfactory and your dealings courteous
and fair. / shall continue to buy my coal
