For this reason the Mail Order Houses nre patronized to a great extent where the merchant at home should get the benefit of this portion of the business that is done in Omaha and Chicago. By selling for cash our price is so that we can compete with these places and when it comes to making prices on a bill of t groceries that the ordinary family would send away for, we can sell as cheap as the Mailorder House and we have the quality behind our prices. This not only gives the consumer the sume value for the money, but saves the trouble of sending away and waiting a week or two for tlie goods, We ask you to consider this bill, compare the prices with the Mail Order House and also come in and take a look for yourself. i On May J Q anJ Jg? we oKer this $ 2 0 Special Assortment jjl 2 0 25 lbs.
