Real Sensible Talk What would you think of a merchant, who ad- vertised goods at Right Prices and when you called you found he was only bluffing? I guess you would s.iy, "Stung Again." and go away back home and look up the old catalogue again, and make out another order We feel sure we have have proven to any person who has called fnquiring about any of our advertisements that we actually are doing what we say we are because the increase in business sfiows us that they are satis- fied. Ju^t aAvord to any who have not proven our prices right. Call once when you want Something, and if we cannot satisfy you that we are actually try- ing to s'erve you with goods at right prices. Then we would sav, Buy from the catalogue, but we think you ought first try your own dealer who is trying to boost your community as well as his own. & by our ow*n com bined efforts make our little town a real Hve centre.
