Campbell; a ,01). Is there any Spring in You? GO IT WHILE YOU'RE YOUNG ; SEEP IT UP WHEN YOU'RE OLD ! Go it on the A. R. Smith cash plan. Keep it up on the go-ahead bargain style. Charlemagne of France was Emperor before he was 2 years of age ; oti the other hand, Gladstone made one of his most famous speeches when over So years old. It is thoughts that make you grow old and thoughts that keep you young If you are show- ing up in years, keep your ideas on the sunny side of life and up -to -the -moment, and with bear bargains sprinkled on your countenance you will actually grow younger as you grow older.. They will help to bring the ` teens" of your youth into the second century, Act quickly, and get some of our Spring, red hot, under -valued, Ready-to- wear Clothing, GentsFurnishings, hats. Caps, etc. With best wishes of A. R. SMITH. Truth crushed to earth will rise again. Clothing Trade knows the original. They claim there is nothing original excepting original sin ; but pioneer 1.. advertising will hold its own next, and I take that priv- ilege of spreading broadcast through this " land of opportunities," as Emmerson calls it, the first seeds of the great enterprise. There is no growth except from original planting ; real vitality and expansion must be created, not imitative. The man who tries to graft into another's tree or plant never retains a natural growth ; he only passes for a second -hared, after all. The cloth- i,ig trade, together with the world at large, do not believe y.., in trailers or imitators. I try to be myself and work out my own glory, and I never try to steal from others what really belongs to them. You can bet 10 to z that I am the first plan in Wingham to circuiari;.e in the clothing line and adopt the cash plan ; and furthermore, I am the man to -day that hands out up-to-date, genuine bargains. Try us and experience the truth, and follow the crowds that throng our shop for bargains. I like plain talk and plain facts, don't you ? 1'Iost merchants have three hands: Right hand, left hand, and .a little behind hand. We've only two hands, right and left—we're rarelytbehind hand. Already some of our Spring Goods have arrived. You can buy from use Piles of Men's Tweed Pants, at 99c. Piles of Men's Pants at $1.25. Piles of Men's Tweed Pants at $1.50.
