an which tie we insured was oily liable for

read as follows

_ _ 1894--1895
A- we plan for the new year the question comes to our mind,
What has the old year brought to us,
and what will the new year bring ?
1894 has brought us a highly- successful business year. It -trough -
out the year we have tried to establish a confidence between buyer and
seller which some merchants dont give much thought of. 11'e doe We
have tried to give our customers such value that they would come to us
when needing again. We have tried to wake a silo lily boot a disreput-
able thins,;, and build up a trade notal for good goods. and you all know
how successful we have been. Notwithstanding all the cry of hard
times, low prices, and scarcity- of money, our sales have ALMOST
1)OITBLEI) the amount of business done in this stone last year. 1x94
ham been goad to us.
What will the New 1 -ear bring ' As yet it is almost a blank page
anti wt• can write on it just what we. choose. It will be for us just
what we Make it.. So we will endeavor to snake it even a more suc-
cessful year than the old year, rind by striving to buy at the closest fig-
ures, and selling for the closest figures, and selling for Cash, giving our
customers the hest quality possible for the least price possible by study-
ing your interests, which are mutually ours, we hope to make the suc-
cess for 1895 which we have planned. We are now giving clearing
vices on all cold weather goods -Felt Shoes, Felt Boots and 1)vershoes-
e will not carry then over to next season. See them before you buy.
