OR TO BE EXACT IT IS JUST 20 YEARS ON APitIL 16th SINCE THE WRITE "LAN ED" IN THE TOWN OF WINGHAM AND AT THIS TIME WE WILL INAUGURATE A VERY IMPORTANT INNOVATION ,NAMELY— The TwooPrice System Cash and 9 Credit In other words we believe there should be a difference between the cash and credit price, in fact we have believed in this principle for many years but the problem has been to find or solutionize the difficulty so as to meet the approval of all our cus tomers. 611kalesweggs Our desire to bking down prices to the lowest possible point forces us to make a difference, as after very careful study, we have found it ,costs us approximately 7% on every pair of shoes charged, counting ordinary bank interest, postage, stationery, time required -to keep the books and losses through bad accounts, and it is therefore OUR INTENTION TO GIVE A DISCOUNT OF AP- PROXIMATELY 'THIS AMOUNT ON ALL CASH PURCHASES. "-- — MOREOVER OUR NEW SYSTEM OF BUYING WHEREBY THE VERY LARGE BULK OF OUR „REQUIREMENTS ARE BOUGHT DIRECT FROM THE MAKER in what is known as case and 1/2 case lots combined with the cash discount just referred to we are enabled to sell all kinds of footwear at Practically •The Same Prices As Largest Shoe Dealers AND IN ADDITION WE SEW ALL RIPS ON SHOES PURCHASED FROM US "FREE OF CHARGE" For instance the difference it will make to our present prices will be approximately as follows, that is to say:— $6.50 Shoes "regular price will be "cash price . , $5.95 $5.00 Shoes "regular price" will be "cash price" $4.65, and in many cases 111.45 -$4.00 Shoes "regular price" will be "cash price" $3.65 $3.00 Shoes "regular price" will be "cash price" $2.65 Etc., etc. applying as it will on all kinds and qualities of footwear we have for sale. KINDLY NOTE THIS HOWEVER—Our business has been built up by selling GOOD GOODS AT MODERATE PRICES In other words we do not specialize in a cheap class of goods but on Dependable Qualities, and # it is our intention to continue on this line of action, that is, we will stick to the plan that has made Es 1 , this shoe business the largest (as to volume) in the County of Huron by a considerable margin, and we will endeavor to sell at all times m , m GOOD GOODS AT MOST MODERATE PRICES MI In quoting prices we shallin all cases quote the TWO PRICES namely, the REGULAR PRICE and the amount of CASH DICOUNT. It will take a little time for our customers to get used to this change but we believe it is -the fair and proper way to do business and we shall stick to it believing IN that we can best sere our customers by this new plan which has been adopted only after long and PM - IM m very careful study. # N NI 1111 IN w MI E IM M E As to those who desire credit the very same conditions as heretofore will prevail, that is, those who have been getting credit from us willhavethe same Privilege as in the past, the only difference it will make is that when the cash is paid the CASH DISCOUNT WILL BE ALLOWED. • w:VISSTEISMIUSIORESSLIZESIESIASS9187 BliNISENSIN panunizta "DON'T GIVE A DARN" (13y Winnifred 13Iack) "The worst of you Is—you don't give a darn„ Nota darn, not even half a darn—about anything."
