The Why arid Wher ef or
"O DOUBT, it 'has come to your mind why the People's Cash Store
J-1 sells for less. In but a few words the story will be told.. The
purpose of this store at its origin was to sell merchandise at a
low cost, quick tyrno vers makes possible doing business for , less
money. As it does not cost any more to sell five cans of milk or three
pairs of hose to one customer than one can or one pair, profits have
been systematically reduced through our large volume that, any one
may come, buy the desired article or any quantity and save money.
The purpose of ; our month-end event is to create larger volume
and in anticipation Wa are fortunate enough to make, the reductions
