LOUGHARYS' OFFICE BOY I heard of a farmer who made his first trip through Colorado over what is called "The Scenic Route," handing out objections to the mountain peaks and gorges because be said they obstructed the scenery. The boss says. "It all depends upon your point of view." I was reading about Mr. Todd, the New York banker with skids of money and brown stone bouses who is living out in a but, about twenty miles from nowhere, doing their own house keeping and eating grub like the poor est people in the world. Mrs. Todd and he are out there to get the fresh air. But with all their money, they can't use up no more than a poor kid like me. Fresh air is so cheap, I guess that's why some folks don't want it There's bunches of 'em that like a bit of hot air and some sugar-coated flat tery. But what most people want is value. And that s what they get when they buy anything of Loughary's Grocery, especially fresh fruits. We are strong on strawberries and they are coming in fine now. ill a CARP During the month of June it will be our privilege to exhibit the most exclusive line of carpets ever brought to this city. Particular attention has been paid to get ting designs that would please the most fastidious tastes in carpets. Pretty designs when taken with good solid weaving is what makes a carpet to be de sired. We can guarantee that our carpets are first class. We have been asked by some manufacturers to buy seconds in carpets. Some with slight defects, something a customer would never notice, just a few mis-threads, but we declined. Its something you would find out in the time to come and we can not afford that. We have always bought the first-grade and let some one else have the other kind. Thats what we want you to know and we want you to examine the goods and know for yourself its the truth. OUR MOTTO -A Low Price for Hlgh-Orade Cioods.
