Getting what is best for the least money is where wisdom is shown.
Be wise and give us a call—we’ll do the rest. Our stock is complete
and in spite of the heavy advance ip prices in all lines we offer the
best values we ever owned, Buyigg goods for twenty-seven retail
stores, in addition to our mammoth wholesale house in Galveston,
enables us to undersell all competitors. No lots too big for us to
handle—that’s the reason we do the business. Besides, we are
never “just out!”—everything exactly as advertised, je
an advantage over any Cuero competition, and the trading public of this section,
realizing above acknowledged fac:s, cannot be mislead by imitators of our mam-
moth stocks and matchless prices* Our immense store rooms, 60x150 feet,- up-
stairs and down are filled to overflowing with bright new fall and winter mer-
chandise, selected in person by J A. GRAVES, in the cheapest markets in the
world, bought before the big advance in all lines of dry goods and marked at
prices from 10 to 25 per cent under any other dry goods house ti this section.
Above statements are proven facts, as the crowds that keep eighteen men and
women busy every hour in the day and six days in the week bear witness^ j*
