Not How
High
But how low can we make the price, is the
question we ask ourselves when marking our
goods for sale. That's what makes Ours an
ever-panding business, it's a potent advertiser;
it tells the story through the purse in thousands
of homes, only to be retold in countless others
by appreciative money savers.

WHY IS IT
That every day
trom every part of the city, regardless of distance?
i- There must be some reason. People especially
ladies don't go out of their way to buy unless
there is a reason.
IT IS BECAUSE we have established a reputation for abso
lutely fresh goods especially in the line of table
4- delicacies, and our customers are sure of a
superior article and then the prices are right.
