HOW THEY DO IT

Some people possess the faculty of
getting next" to almost every good
proposition that comes along. This
is especially true with regard to any,
thing of exceptional value that is Of
fered by our local merchants. It saves
them many dollars in the run of a
year.
How do they do it?
They read the ads in every issue of
the home paper, never emitting even
the small want ads.
Every issue of this paper has some
thing of especial value advertised
therein, something that many people
would be glad to have.
The persistent ad reader locates
these things-and gets them.
Keep your bargain eye on the ads
OF the home merchant. If he saws it
IS good, or of especial value, you NAV
be sure it is as he states. He can not
afford to misrepresent his goods, even
if he SO desired. To do so would put
