Distinct Advantages We Offer
Buyers of Diamonds for Christmas
We have probably the largest stock of diamond jewelry in
the South.
It was carefully selected or made to special order by our dia
mond expert, and for the same quality,, our prices can not be
lowered anywhere
A large stock makes low prices, tor it permits buying direct
from the cutters and saving the profit that wholesale dealers
must charge. By buying direct we save a little more than 10
per cent.
We mark our diamonds in plain figures, with their correct
grade, their exact weight, and their cash prices. When our sales
men show you a tray of diamonds you can look through it and
without any assistance can tell all that is known about every dla
mond in it* This saves questions, time and obviates "haggling
over prices.
Our prices are based on low cost, small selling expenses and
are made so small that we can better afford to lose a sale than
lo take less.
Approval Shipments
Diamonds will be sent to out-of-town customers at our e.\
n.-nse for we want them ro know before they obligate themselves
to buy that our prices and grades are correct Otir attractive de
ferred payment, plans are open to reliable people anywhere.

uionds " and 100-page illustrated catalogue. They quote net prices
on all grades and weights, giving full particulars about our liberal
selling plans.
