That's only a simple little problem in arithmetio, but the result coined pretty close to indicating the amount that can be saved by buying your Groceries, Fruits, Dinner Sets, Toilet Sets and Fancy Chiva here, Three reasons why you should bay here: 1. We don't keep our cellar full of old stock, but rather sacrifice h little in price and clear the goods out. 2. We try to bey from the best makers, and take all the discounts possible for cash, therefore can give customers the benefit of our close buying. II. We don't ask extortionist prices and then drop away down, as that is misleading the people, as we too often see in advertise- ments; but we mark our goods at very small profits, which enables us to turn them over often. So just call and get some of our genuine bargains in the above, as we want the room, and won't keep them over. R. A. Hutchison GROCERIES AND CROCKERY Prompt Delivery. - Phone 59. Who Wants a Farm ?
