THE MACON DAILY TELEGRAPH! TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 1, 1908
Here's
To
The man who thinks twice—the man who appreciates
the combination of quality and sensible prices—the man
who wants his dollar to bring him a dollar’s worth of
whatever he buys, and besides that carry a lot of pleas-
. ure and satisfaction—is the man you’ll find most among
our customers.
This means something. Just this—We are selling
the kind of clothes men like to wear. The kind they buy
again. We have the best of new things. You will find
it very much worth your while to look them over; fancy
suits in all the new colorings, in many models; blue and
black unfinished Worsteds and Thibets.

REPUTATION
- Is worth more to us than the profits wo might
make on a few pounds of cheap, trashy Teas, or
low grade, rank Coffee, which might be sold by
questionable methods to the unwary.
DON’T BE HUMBUGGED
By the fly-by-night concerns who try to imitate
some of the “Windy City Stylo” catalogue
houses who sell their goods mostly to the un
thinking poor people.
WE WOULD NOT BRAND A.
TRUTHFUL MAN A LIAR
No, never, because it would not be just and
would be a great sin to do so, and all good peo
ple would lose respect for the person who bears
false witness.
THE PURE FOOD LAW SAYS YOU MUST NOT
BRAND A PACKAGE WITH A LIE
Wo hnve great respect for the pure food law,
beeause it is in keeping with the Higher Law,
given to us relative to bearing false witness.
Iff is a good law and needs to bo enforced more
rigidly.
WE WOULD NOT SELL YOU
Finest Java & Mocha Coffee, three pounds for
one dollar and give twenty-five cents worth
sugar free with it. Wo do not know of nny other
store doing this, although we have seen in a few
cities whore some stores had signs outside mak
ing this offer, and filling the orders with Coffee
not as good as what we sell at 20c a ponnd, and
getting the eqnivolont of forty cents for twenty-
* five cents worth of sugar.
Do not confuse A&P Stores with mushroom concerns
who have nothing to lose. No other store is in a position
to give as fresh goods or as great values as A&P Stores.
When you put your money in bank yon like to put it
where it is safe; when you mako a purchase, trado at a
store where you are safe. Help yourself by trading at
A&P Stores. You will find them always delighted to
serve you.

of his store, but he could not tell ex
actly where the noise came from,
whether from the rear wall or the
floor. Ho went to the rear and the
noise ceasedN He then concluded that
U might have been a burglar trying
to get In. or It may not have been.
If a burglar, his going to the rear hid
frightened him off, and then the In
cident was forgotten.
Sunday night, when about closing
time, he heard that same sawing. He
stood still and listened, and then r«-
calllng the noine of the Friday night
before, he waa now certain that there
wit & burglar who had returned to
complete the work of sawing his way
Into the store. As quietly an possi
ble ho whispered In tho phone to
Sheriff Robertnon to send a deputy or
bo to the store and that he would tell
them about It when they came.
Promptly two deputies walked caa-
ually Into the store and bought cigars,
and were told In a low tone of the
sawing and tho visit of the burglar.
Then they decided that they would all
pretend os If they had gone out and
locked the door, though they remained
and took positions In tho store to re
main absolutely quiet and wait for
developments.
Silence prevailed. Only the drip of
the gathering drops of tho sarsaparilla
syrup from a leaky > valve In the sodu
fountain could be heard. They lis
tened and Anally the sawing began.
They were all now satisfied that the
burglar was In the cellar, and sawing
his way through the floor. At first
they thought they would wait until
the burglar got through the floor and
then they would pounce upon him.
but the burglar was so long about it
that Deputy Joe Wilson grew Impa
tient. Gathering his light he bounded
down Into the cellar, but there was no
one to be seen. The others went down
and they found no one. Then they

For several nights evidently a big

had been trying to gnaw through the
floor from one cf the cross beam*.
That was all there was to it. Then
the parly went upstairs and drowned
their disappointment In the best In

with atrlet Injunctions not to breathe
a word of the night's work.

The Model Cook.
A First street resldenter made com
plaint that his cook had taken a lot
of things at various times from his
pantry, and while he had been a suf
ferer along these lines for a long
time, the practice had now grown to
such an extent that he could not stand
it any longer. Ho put up with her
taking things enough to feed a family
every night when she went home, nnd
he allowed It to bo done, knowing
how scarce cooks were, and fearing
that If he discharged her he might
get one worse than she was. But the
other night when she took off a lot
of country tausage that he had paid
twenty cents a pound for and was
eating only about three links at a
meal so as to enjoy it as long os
possible, he called a halt and told her
she must return tho sausage. She
strenuously denied that she had nny,
but a search of her basket revealed
other night when she took off a .ot
other things he did not know she had.
All this was done by his wife, but ns
he did not wish her to come Into
court, he told It as though he had been
there and caught her himself.
This was the case of Henrietta Har
ris, charged with larceny. After all
had been said, how Henrietta had
taken tho things, and how a police
man was called, and all about It, the
court asked Henrietta what statement
she 1 wanted to make.
