BJ FOSTER Having been called to New York by a telegram announcing that several large Importing and Manufacturing houses were on the verge cl bankruptcy, and that if I had any money I could purchase a lot of goods at less than half their value, I packed up and hastened away —to be prepared to give my customers more goods for their money than any one—and without any exaggeration I have purchased the Best, Prettiest, and Cheapest line of pods ever exhibited in Georgia. All I ask is an examination of my goods to convince the most skeptical that I MEAN WHAT I SAY! These goods are New and Fresh and were bought for the CASH and I am bound to get my money back—nothing more, nothing less. My goods were selected with great care, as I know the wants of die people ot this city and surrounding country. Below I quote some of my new prices.
