Don’t Be Misled
@
by Cheap Prices.
There are lots of inferior goods on
the market , and on account of the cry of
‘hard times” many merchants are buy
ing the cheapest that is offered.
~ We believe in Economy, but inferior
Candies, Nuts and Fruits are not cheap
at any price. You may not buy so- much
as usual, but what you do buy should be
the best,
- We have exercised great care and
discrimination in slecting our Raisins and
Currants and Crystalized Fruits, also Nuts
Candies etc, for the Holiday trade,landfwe
believe you will appreciate the difference.
Let us have your orders for Fruitcakes
and Loaf Cakes.
