Beginning last Saturday morning we offer a discount of One-Fifth,
on every purchase made from any item in our stock. Prices have started down
ward and we are going to give you the full benefit now. Many items have not been
lowered at wholesale, but we include them all. Labor has not been lowered in many
industries and a cut of 30 to 50 percent in raw materials does not mean a cut of
that much in the finished product. Many of the items we are offering can not be.
had at the new mill prices before January or February. You can get them from us
now just when you need them most

Fake Economy.
If .you need n Dodge Brothers ctfr no it is . false
economy to delay your purchase, and probably lose, busi
, ncss or time, or both.
Dodge Brothers car prices arc fixed for six months at
least, and there is no intention of changing now, either
in price or quality, except the constant effort to. better the
quality of these good cars. '
A famous Chicago merchanUhas truthfully said that
"Quality Remains Long After the Price is Forgotten" but
ho who now waits orbuys what he does not want, will
often remember the hot water he had to chase, or the
rear wheel he jacked up cachmorning before he could
start. '
" Dodge Brothers cars pay dividends in faithful, eco
nomical servicethey are both a winter and summer car.
You have all noticed the positive quiet starting of Dodgd
cars even in the coldest weather.
What I mean to say is (hat you cannot save money
by waiting or buying something cheaper if you have real
need for a good car if you have no need, then of course
doiTt buy anything wait until you have need and then
buy something good and dependable.

My wlfo is taking her vacation
A pound of flesh I cannot gain. ,

No more visits 'till we're twain,
Sho's been gone about six weeks

Something I liavo neve rdonb
Since tho day that wo wore wed.
Every ttmo I try that stunt
I moot with somo disaster,
So now I'll let the woirien Svork
They can1 do It so much faster.

With papers, books and magazines,
"While I poor devil, sit anil think
How will I over get it clean.

Large flies got in tho parlor

And every morning when I look
Can sco d fresh one just begun.'
