world tha would ordinarily bring suooess to a store. .
Tbe rapidalmost phenommal -increase in our tcsiness woud indi
cate that we are at least pleasing a great majority of tbe tnying public;
and, for this we feel highly gratified and thankf uL : Our customers always
fcome the second, and tbe third time, and this of course, is the basis of onr
sutfeess.' ' " .-.
We want to, therefore, talk to those wba have not tried trading here
as yet We want to eay to you. TRY; If we do not make your trading
both pleasant and profitable we incur - a great business risk. At least,
that is tbe way we figure it, for to have a disappointed customer is about
the worst thing that can happen to a store. You can rest assured, there
fore, that yon will like your trading here when yon try. All DAVIS
KASEIi patrons are more than satisfied they are pleased.

sible store news from here. It will be news that thrifty and thinking
housewives will appreciate and profit by. We will make it as interesting
as possible. ' We'll be right glad and so will you if you accept this in
