Everything in the Jewelry line ,
New Goods rich enough for the poet Lasca.
And one who dees not buy at the Jewelry Store ,
Will cuss and kick and feel very sore ,
. Because the beautiful gift presented ,
Did not pan out as represented.
McCrackcn has elegant silver ,
Fine Gold Watches for Lady or Gent.
I am not selling goods at a loss ,

And have a chance , next December ,
To buy of the very same man ,
Who certainly will , if he can , *
Please everytime , whether for dollars or dimes.
We never like to blow ,
But when we KNOW IT IS SO ,
That the Jewelry Store carries only
Warranted goods that can be recommended.
Then we like to say to everyone that it will pay ,
To consider before all your money is expended.
Business is Business !
We have the goods and are giving rare bargains for the
IOLIDAYS ! Don't all come in at one time , for the store is
