and value so and so* tacked on before them
is something that we rarely allow ourselves
to indulge in for we realize that it is re
sorted to so much that it has become monotinous.

run across a ‘Doubting Thomas’ or a man ‘from
Missouri’ whom we cannot convince without fig
ures that we sell everything in the hardware line
cheaper than they can buy elsewhere. We have
found a few of this variety and we are ready with
‘the goods’ and the prices ‘to show them.’ And in
