That principle which is giving entire satisfaction to nearly 85 per cent of .tibe motor ear buyers of ' America has been the basis of Hupniobile engi neering for seven years.

The spring season brings many special requirements to our rural customers. STOCK AND POULTRY PREPARATIONS, HOUSEKEEPING HELPS, SPRING TONICS AND BLOOD REMEDIES, SEEDS, SPRAY ING MATERIALS, FORMALDEHYDE, SHEEP DIP AND nianv other items of drug store goods are in demand just now HOUSEHOLD REMEDIES, RECIPES AND PRESCRIPTIONS ARE PROVIDED PROMPTLY. HAVE THEM JUST WHEN THEY ARE NEEDED. We solicit your trade on the basis of right goods, superior service and fair prices. Just phone or mail your orders. Keep the Money at Home It is to your own interest to trade at home. , Suppose the mail-order houses should sell cheaper and every body should order goods from them the local stores would be no more. Remember, a store cannot be kept up with the small purchases if the money is sent away for the big things. You have then succeeded in ruining your home trade; you have then helped to build up an enormous corporation in some distant city. The lessened home consumption and market would decrease the value of your farms and homes. Send your money away, you get nothing back, but goods; spend it at home and it will come back to you in better towns, better stores, better schools, better churches, and better social advantages. The Home Denier helps to keep up the schools and churches. He contributes his share for good roads and other public enterprises.
