That Satisfy
In Quality
and- Price! I
That's the kind you'll find in our store
We don't consume large amounts of ad space,
spasmodically, telling you about big bargains in
special lines sold at and below cost because
every merchant must derive a certain percent of
profit, on the goods he sells if he expects to pay
interest on his investment and remain in business.
During our many yeaj in the grocery business
we have found that the average customer pre
fers high quality groceries at honest prices to
inferior brands at "below cost" price.
Our guarantee of satisfaction stands behind the
merchandise we sell. You take no chances
when you trade with us.

one of the coiinty'i most highly re

appearing to be in the best of health,
at all times, Mr. Utiukles had for many
years been alllicted with heart trouble.
This was the cause of 'his death,
brought on by over exertion, when ho

cranked his car and piepared to con
tinue on his way homo, lie was found
by llort Morhart a Miort titno later
but too late to be of any assistance as
his spirit had aheady departed this
life The engine of the car was still
running and it is supposed that the
end came immediately after Mr. Duck
ies hud entered his car.
The deceased was born iu "Indiana,
lanuiiry 11, 13j(! and was 01 years old
He is survived by his wife, live sons,
Alex, Harry, Dud, Dell and Paul, and
two duughtcis Mrs. Leltoy Lai son of
Sidney and Mtss lieue, at homo.
The task of le.iiinghisf.unily having

till, sanounded by ills pved ones.
The last sad rites wec conducted
at the Christian chuich iu t i W city,
Wednesday afternoon, in chaige of
ltev. Deebe. Interment was made in
the city comet ory.
The unusually large number attend
ing the funeral, gave evidence of the
high esteem in which tlio deceased was
held iu this community.

COFFEE is injurious to the human system is the one
cry, of the manufactures of competitive products
and it is needless fo say many people "fall for this brand
of argument" advanced by substitute manufacturers.
Let us no into the matter a little farther. In so doing
wc find that it has been used for about 345 years, first
being introduced in Europe in 1575 by A. Rauwolf.
Further investigation reveals the fact that Rauwolf was
a physician of considerable fame.
Coffee is known as Mocha, Java and Rio. The best
flavors are derived from the blending of these three.
The brands of coffee we handle are the products of
mercantile firms whose business activities revolve on
the one great point QUALITY. With them the select
ion, blending, roasting and distribution of coffee is a
business and a study. When you '.buy coffee from us
you are assured of the Quality for which you pay. We
handle only well known brands as listed below:
Farmers Union Butter Nut
Paxtons Gas Roasted Wedding Breakfast
Golden Grain Frontier
Gypsie Boy . Huco Loyalty
These are all high grade steel cut coffees and
there is a blend that will please every taste.
Prices range from 50 to 60 cents per pound.
