Why not practice economy by spending same, at the
place where your dollar will do the most good. We
are not asking you to take our word, when they all ^
claim the same, but give us a true test. Compare our
goods and prices with others. Hundreds of people of
Jackson county have tried us and are regular custo
mers of ours now. WHY NOT YOU? If you
trade with us we both share the benefits, if you do
not the other fellow gets it all.
