The merchant who gives fair, honest values for the price never will be without plentv of customers. While we will always meet the price of "bait" mer chants to cash trade, we never resort to fake sales or anv other deceptions to attract trade. Our ap peals are to your pocxet book, and we give the best all-round values. The average man or woman has sense enough to know that when staple goods, like groceries, are offered for lees than real value, they are of inferior quality or old 'and shop -worn. "Baits" were invented to catch fish, not men. Wt Solicit Your Trade. , E. Williams. Tb Grocer, PhoMii, MmKBIdc. 'I I I I I I job Printing at the Courier Office.
