ONE PRICE
vs.
DISCOUNTS.
Did it ever occur to you that discounts do
not mean securing the lowest price t Some
stores have the habit of giving a discount if
you ask for it those who do not demand it do
not get it that's unfair Merchandising.
Then again, did it ever occur to you that
in order to give a discount the article or ar
ticles must be priced accordingly?
"Would it not be wise to make a compari
son, both in quality and price, even though a
discount is offered youf We court this kind
of comparison. This is a "One Price to All
Store" and we will guarantee that our one
and only price is as low, if not lower, on any
article that any other store may offer you,
deducting their discount. The policy which
this house pursues is one of honest pricing of
honest merchandise. This is the foundation
upon which this business has been built. We
solicit your patronage only on this basis, and
desire that each and every customer shall be
a pleased one, for we want this to be a satis
factory 6tore.
You can buy here in perfect confidence

five Japaneae Immigrants. These are the
