Our stock is more complete than ever and we
can sell you the goods cheaper than you can buy
in Chattanooga or elswhere. There is no use of
your paying railroads fare or ordering from mail
order houses, when we can sell you the goods |
from 20 to 25 per cent, cheaper than anybody
else, because our goods were bought from the
factory direct, and were bought in June and July
before the advances, and we can sell you the
goods at the same prices as last year.
There is no use for you to haul your cotton
anywhere else as LaFayette is paying the high
est prices in the country/and H. Winer is sell

We invite all our friends in Walker county to

QUALITY Versus Ql AM IIA
Many housewives make a vitas
mistake in choosing some of I heir
foodstuffs on the basis of quantity,
j li Ins been pi o ven time and again
lent ll.e chrnpi ;l is always the m ist
expensive, vvliile Hie highest price i.t
not always the best.
There’s a happy medium in every-'
thing When you select foods, lie
careful. Don't choose any particular
I brand of, say Baking Powder for
I example, just because you get a big
• run for a small price.
The risk you take in ruining your
'em ire baking n,ml losing the cost of
the materials involved is not any
where equal to the small amount
| saved on the price of Ihe Baking
j Powder.
Then again, because the price is
i high, don’t think the quality is the
best, some women do, and they are
losing money.
Look for Ihe happy medium. You’ll
li ml il. Choose n brand that costs a
l moderate price and you’ll find it
more economical to buy and mor ■
economical to use.
The lies! Baking Powder in the
world can he made so as to sell for
