Good Coffee Values
1 was reading about a fellow
who was asked what he had had
for lunch, and he said: "A piece
of baconine, some almost eggs, a
cup of near coffee and some not
quite pie." Well, you won't find
any "near coffee" around this
shop; that is. if we sell it to you
for coffee. It's easy for a grocer
to give you n good run for your
coftVo money if he isn't too stin
gy. Coffee is lower than ever be
fore and qualities better. It all
depends upon how much a grocer
is willing to pay for his coffee.
You cun buy the real old Govt,
.lava or you can buy Java which
comes from Brar.il, but whatever
we sell you, whether it be Java,
Mocha and Java or Costa Rica,
you may know it is the best grade
that can be sold for the money.
Wp have a big coffee trade, and
that helps us to give you fresh
roasted coffee any old day you
want it, and not the tasteless kind
which has lost most of its strength.
I expect a lot of ladies in the
store today to buy our coffee,
