Notice to the Public.
Because of tho serious loss caused by
short weights of cat's, bad preparation
of coal, jioor accounts and tho larger
investment necessary by reason of
cretlit business, wo find it necessary, In
order to obtain a fair and reasonable
profit, that we must either increase the
price of coal or elso get payment on
sale.
It is the fairest way to keep the
price as low ns possible, and not ask
thrifty people to pay the bills of an
other. Therefore on and after, Aug. 21st
we will soil coal for cash only, without
discrimination, nnd treat everyone alike,
believing that this courso of action
Will mqot thd approval of all thinking
people.- .
The bills have to bo paid only once.
nnd the coal man' enjoys sound sleep ns
won as any one.
