Likewise if you want Fresh Groceries
and Vegetables—the best the markets
afford—you will find them here.
We keep our stock moving all the time
and never have any old goods on hand.
Suppose you live in a plain
old house—you are dissatisfied
by its poor appearance, and
would gladly improve it, if you
knew in advance that it would
be a charming home after al-
terations were made.
But the old place looks hope-
less. You can’t visualize it in
any except its present state.
You need advice as to what to
do—what alterations to make.
