Our object in going into the Carpet business was to give people KATR, SQUARE TREATMENT, and goods at the right prices. Now we claim, as our right, your patronage. You may ask WHY. - While our competitors for years were asking and getting $1.55 and $1.60 for 5-frame Brussels Carpet, and 36 cents for cheap Tapestry, we have sold our best Brussels for $1.15, and cheap Tapestry for 25 cents per yard—never asking more—which goes to show that our competitors have been making an enormous profit out of the people. This cannot b» denied. We don’t believe in monopolies, and have been the means of breaking the Carpet business in two, and taking the largest half ourselves. Competitors may feel sore, but we can assure the public it is not from overwork. We wish our competitors well, but we think this explanation necessary.
