Everybody is taking a wallop at old Hi Cost—with
their tongues... That’s easy... Tongue work costs
nothing... But the dealer who actually puts it into
effect is the man you are looking for.
But that is exactly what we are doing. While prices
are continually going up elsewhere, we are pains
takingly keeping them down at this tsore. Every
time the wholesaler raises us a cent or two we lop
off another cent or two from our already slender
profits. We are skating on thin ice, we know, but
we are determined to keep our own prices down,
at all costs.
DRY GOODS
■Our great variety enables us to please everybody.
You cannot duplicate our offerings in price and
quality anywhere,
—We sell everything to eat. The quality is at the
top of the ladder. Old Hi Cost is not at home in
our store. Try our high grade IDAHOME flour. It is a joy to every home.
Whether it be a dinner set, or a single piece, it
is here, and the PRICE IS RIGHT.
No shoddy soles at this store. Every pair up in quality and
down in price. Ask any one who wears them. For both
•Who wants a saw, or an axe, that is soft and goes
dull in a short time? Get a good one for the
same price from us. Guaranteed to stand the test. All of our hardware is
the same, and we have most anything you want. Come here for the best.
WE SELL a little of everything at the price that pleases.

We Never Can Tell.
These days the county is indulging
in the' pleasing pastime of turning out
another grist of public officials, from
president to the most humble of them
all. Today we see great virtues In
this man and that one and the other,
and we expect great things from them
but we never can tell. Sometimes
they measure up to expectations, and
then again they do not measure at all.
But making them is great sport for
some.
