We buy direct from tiif. manufactories, and thus we are enabled
jan4-tf to sell very low.
GOOD REASONS
Why you should buy your Groceries & Provisions from
TALMASGE, HODGSOIT & CO.,
First. Because we buy from first hands and save the profit
usually made by jobbers.
Second.—Because our goods are always fresh and of the
finest and best quality.
Third. Because we keep everything, and the best the
market affords, that you can find in a first class
Grocery and Provision Store.
r
Fourth.—Because we guarantee everything we sell, as re
presented by us or money refunded, and the best
goods sold at the lowest prices.
Fifth. Because, we buy for cash, collect our accounts
promptly when due us, thus enabling us to keep
you from paying your proportion of profit and loss
account.
Sixth. Because our interest and that of our customers are
one, and identically the same, thereby studying
our own interest, we study that of our customer.
Seventh.—Because we defy any honest competitor, keep
the largest and best assorted stocks, deliver goods
promptly in the city when bought, polite and at
tentive to our customers, and will sell as good
goods, at lower figures than any house in North
east Georgia. Give us a trial.
