His many old friends and customers realize that no business man will give away something for nothing. What he loses on the "baits" he will more than doubly make up on the other goods he sells his customers. Look out for snares. One of our greatest statesmen 40 years ago truthfully said: "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." James W. Smith's immense stock of goods will speak for him. Call and examine the largest stock of goods ever shown in Gilliam county. His stores are loaded from floor to ceiling, and as regards prices he will en deavor to keep in the "procession." Many of the lines are bought direct from the East in large quantities for cash, which enables him to give his custom ers great inducements to favor him with their patronage. He sells the Oliver Chilled plows and extras, including the New Departure two and three gangs, also the John Deere plows of all kinds, the Studebaker, Bain and Racine wagons, hacks and bug gies, the Standard, Acme and Mc- Cormack mowers, reapers and hay rakes, the latest improved Pitts threshing machinery, the up-to-date old reliable Hodge steel-frame headers, Holt Bros. Combined Harvesters, Etc., Etc. Camp and sheepmen's supplies a specialty. Highest prices paid for hides, pelts, etc. When in Arlington call and get pri ces before closing deals elsewhere. J A HIES W.
