When you buy. your clothing,' hos, men's furnishing goods from any other store in town you waite your money. .This is a .
broad assertion, but we mean every word of it. Our prices make other merchants jealous. This is-an honest store. When we ad-
vertise an article we sell it. , Our. salesmen do not try to palm off something else, which is higher priced. Always keep your eye
on "London's"; you will always find something to interest you. Our prices are always the lowestr " ,-'
Why are our prices the lowest? We will tell you. London's do not buy one dollar's worth of goods from any wholesale house,,. .
thus saving the middleman's profit, but London's make a specialty of buying up bankrupt and salvage stocks at very , low figures ,
for cash 'and that is why we undersell. ' 0 ': r '';'." :'.:?T 'U' - . '-r
We bought out William Gruber of Omaha at 26 cents on the dollar; that is why other stores cannot sell goods at our prices.
