A
Question
Could we have grown in a few short years from one small store to the largest organization of the kind
in existence to day, had we given anything but the best of merchandise for the least money? Could we
have amassed such an enormous following, and hold and add to our patronage had we not offered in
ducements that cement a customer to our store, and cause him or her to influence others to trade with
ub? Square and honest dealings 36 inches to the yard and modern methods quick sales and small
profits has placed us in the merchandise field today where we fear no competitiors. ' Acquaint your
