▼Jonest merchants are in business to help you with your
Jr II buying problems. You may reply, “They are in
business, to make money!” And, of course, they are.
But the point is: They know that the best way to make
money is to serve you honestly and efficiently.
One of the most valuable services a merchant can render
you is to tell you zvhen to buy. He knows the market. He
is kept informed about raw materials and manufacturing
problems. He gets all the advance tips on styles. He even
knows pretty well what your particular circumstances are#
and what your needs will be.
So, his advice —as offered through his ads in this paper—\%
worth money to you. When he announces a special sale,
or displays a new line of goods, it is well for you to in-
vestigate.
There’s always a right time to buy, and the ads in this paper
will keep you posted. Read them and follow their advice!
