|: CHEAPNESS!— |
The tendency of the times is toward a wili-o’-
A the-wisp called “cheapness.” J
g* While prices have l>een going down, qualities jj?
jS * have been going down too, and deception has be- * J
g' come so widespread as to almost pass unnoticed.
» * We lay it down as a principle, eternal as the < a
hills, that “cheap” things are never cheap. They *
•> * are neither durable nor satisfactory. <
# ’ You have got to pay a fair price £
{) if you want to get a good article.
i; Good things cannot be purchased at the price of ( (S,
C t bad things. Tinware is no exception to the 4#
rule. No one can sell an absolutely “straight”
( t article for less money than we can. v $
There are several grades of Tinware. We £
{| handle the highest grade in this town, and guar- | }
antee satisfaction in quality and prices. We are j?
