WINGHAM, ONT., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 189 .2.
You have noti%e • perhaps the general
absence of prices and quotations in this
store'a talk wi , you, It answers our
purpose to appeal directly
to the intelligence of shoppers,. Some-
thing published prices seldom do. Thoy
may meana great deal or they may
, mean nothing. Who shall determine the
value of this piece of goods at25 Dents or
that at 50 cents, unless the mode are
:First seen and examined Y A oritioal
comparison of qualities side by side with
the prices is necessary for you to decide
whether the purohase would be a money
saving or a money losing transaction.
The way to get the best goods to be got,
no matter what kind, is to buyeof .a store
whose stake is for honest goods and
square, honest dealing. Lay stress on it.
You stand a bettor chance to get well
served if you insist on havingthe best
quality. The child will be served as well
here as the older man or woman.
Just now Spring Goods are beginning
to shove Winter Goods to one side. A.
lovely lot of new Flannelettes just in;
new colors and designs. See them, and
hear the prices. These goods answer a
variety of .purposes. Also, an elegant
range of house and toe slippers, best
makes. We have put on the counter a
lot of odd sizes and lines in Hosiery. You
may want a pair or two to carry you over
the season. Also, a line of Gloves. We
.- want to gotrid of them.
To housekeepers we would say that we
can supply you with Potatoes, Apples,
Rolled Bacon, Breakfast Bacon, Hams,
Lard and Groceries. These goods form
no small part of our stock, and every-
thing of the best quality. That is what
we aim at always—quality.
Shop early. This stere closes at sere
o'clock.
