The Hand Writing on the Wall was with
difficulty translated in August 1921 but
our interpreter translated it as meaning
higher prices, and we bought heavily of
staples before the advance; consequently
we are IN proper position to sell you many
staples at less than the manufacturers
prices today. ! want you to know too that
we are going. to work for your interests as
well as our own. We buy from every con
cevable source that merchandise can be
obtained at under prices. And spot cash
is the mighty lever that lifts and places
high grade merchandise in Laurens new
store, bought at such discount that we
can sell you at less than manufacturers
cost
Napoleon told 'em that the reason that
he always won in battle was because he had
lty, and the right weapons. Now you will
see that when we are fully equipped that
Collins is going to win the trade on the
same principle as that by which Boneparte
won in battle. We have the ability, the
confidence in our ability and the Spot Cash
to plank down for any thing that bobs up
at under prices.
The Hand Writing on the Wall is now
being construed by professional phophets
to mean Cotton at Higher Prices, and it is
naturally to be inferred that cotton goods
are to advance accordingly; SO possibly it
will be best to answer the call while oppor-
tunlty rings, giving you q chance to buy
high grade merchandise at Collins at
under price. Watch for our matchless
quotations next week, which will appear in
the Laurens papers.
