THE PEOPLE OF SALEM
Should know that the W. V. Moore Co. staff e no sensational sale. We do not believe in
marking oar -roods Tip and then statins a bij so -coiled "Sale." a .
A merchant is in business to make money. If he advertises "At Cost" and "Belowr
Cost" there is something wron? because he can not operate his store without a profit
any more than you could keep up your home without an income. Here is bow we mark
our"goods. Cost plus overhead, expenses, then a small profit. s
This gives you a moderate and fair price on not only a'cocple of "Specials" but on
all goods in our store, and that means everything from basement to attic. ,
