A CATELOGUE
sent to you by one of the catalogue houses may look well to you but, say, citizens of
Sh'ermnn county does that Catalogue house pay any taxes in our county? Does it help
support us in any way .' Now candidly, would’nt you rather do your buying at home.
1 hen come in and co our line of Watches, Clocks, .Jewelry and Silverware and let’s
talk the matter over.
Keeping your money at home is the only way to build up our community and we are
convinced in our own mind that our prices are as low as any ones, and even you will sav so
when you have looked over our stock and compared them with our very low prices.
See Our Lumps!
We have a line of fine lamps from 1.26 up. If
won’t cost you anv tiling to see them.
Clocks apd Silverware.
\\ e have more than we want. Como and get our prices.
You will find us always willing to show you goods and tell vou of their merit
Thanking you for past favors we remain,
Vours successfully,
