Just- A Talk.
There probably isn't'a reader of tbis'newspaper who will not want to
buy some house furnishing article or other between now and tbe holidays.

serve you than any other to have a word with you at about tbis time.
As things go in Walla Walla (and they certainly go to suit us) tbe
DAViS-KASER store has made probably tbe greatest success of all stores
here. At least, we have tried hard and earnestly to do everything in tbe
world tba would ordinarily biing snocess to, a store.
Tbe rapid almost phenomiual increase in our tusiness woud indi
cate that we are at least pleasing a great majority of tbe buying public;
auditor tbie we feel highly gratified and thankful. Oar customers always
come tbe second, and tbe third time, and tbis of course, is tbe basis of our
suooess.
We want to, therefore, talk to those who have not tried tiading here
as yet. .We want to say to you, ,TRY. .If we do not make your trading
both pleasant and profitable we incur a great business risk. At, least,
that la tba way we figure it, for to bave a disappointed customer is about
the worst thing that can happen to a store. . Yon can rest assured, there
fore, that you will like your trading here when you try. All DAVIS
KASER pstrons are more than satisfied they are pleased.
" There will from now till the holidaya be a whole lot of valuable, sen
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 possiblel . We'll be right glad and so will you if you accept tbis in
v.itaticB to become a DA VIS-KASEB Customer. -
