WISE TALKS BY U. S. 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.

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.
