The men who own the Cash and Carry Grabateria Grocery were so thoroughly established .in the hab it of charging groceries it took a long time to recover. But now that the new program-is to sell for cash we are getting rapidly ground ed in the new order and would not think of going back to the old way. This holds good with a large following of custom ers who changed their method of purchase because the method of selling was changed and they too, are highly pleased because it is money saved each time a purchase is made. Why should they not save. The cost of doing business is less and we have been willing to sell our groceries in keeping with the re duced expense. Give us your grocery business for a month and we will prove our statements. The Grabateria Cash and Carry Grocery SCALES & CURRIER, Inc.
