Just a Word Mr. Working Nan!
Where and how are you buying your GROCERIES?
Are you »tiII going ahead and buying on the old CREDIT system?
If you are, wont you stop and figure a little.
Do you know that you are paying a bookkeeper's salary and an added
per Cent for the collector?
Do you know that you are paying the other fellows bad account?
Our system of selling for cash does away with these ex|»enses and
gives you the best service and the best goods at the lowest |H>ssible price.
Give us a trial order and be convinced.
