September 1st we. installed our new delivery equipment, heretofore having had our delivering done by an
outside concern. And in selecting the teams and wagons that were to deliver packages from this store, wa
chose the handsomest outfits we could find. We're rather proud of them. - Not only for the way they LOOK,
but for theway they WORE, too. Now we can promise the very best deliveries possible to maintain. Our
rapidly growing business demanded a more satisfactory system and we hope to make this one so good that it
will be another attraction, to make you trade at the store "WHERE QUALITY REIGNS AND WHERE PRICES
