ANNOUNCEMENT
Mr. Alexander Horne in the firm known
as Miller Bros., it is my intention to con-
tinue the business under the same name.
I take this opportunity of thanking the
public for their past patronage and solicit
ti continuation of same.
Or. account of the war, the cost of mus-
r-_~.l ilistl-unients has advanced so that it
 .ulld be impossible for us to oi’t'er‘ them at
.l rcasollable price under our present sys-
teln of long' credit. After this -date it is
our intention to establish a ONE PRICE
SYS'l`EM. All goods will be marked ill
plain figures at the LOWEST CASH
PRICE possible. The customer whopays
cash had sl right to get the best value pos-
sible for his money. The customer who buys
on time has a right to pay for the accom-
_ modation. A ONE PRICE SYSTEM can
only be established by charging bank in-
terest from date of sale. By curtailing
every possible expense, and doing busi-
ness at a closermargin of profit, we hope
under a ONE PRICE SYSTEM to be able
to sell as cheaply as any dealer in the same
