“CAT” MOUSES SELL
OLD STYLE GOODS.
Illinois Farmer Answers Note
Found In Pocket of “Latest
Style” Clothes and Finds It
Was Written Twenty Years
Ago.
Those who have been “wise” to
what the catalog houses are giving
their patrons have long known
that the goods they sell at bargain
prices are largely made up of cast
offs and old stock which has been
bought at prices which enable
them to use plausible advertise
ments to make the countryman
think he is getting far better goods
than can be purchased from his
home merchant.
The latest which has come to the
observation of the interstate grocer
is a story which has Cupid as one
of the leading players and has the
scene laid in an Illinois town not
far from Cairo.
According to the information
which comes from the capital of
the Illinois “Egypt,” a farmer in
that vicinity recently sent an order

to a Chicago catalog concert after
carefully persuing the voluminous
book and reading that the goods
were all of the latest style and
pattern.
The cash was sent with the or
der, which was one of the require
ments, and the suit came some
days or weeks later.
When this young farmer tried
on the suit his hands naturally
sought the pockets of the pants and
he was surprised to find a care
fully written note down where he
had planned to keep his small
change and plug of tobacco.
The note read thusly :
“Should this fall into the hands
of a good looking young man who
desires to correspond with a sweet
tempered young lady, kindly ad
dress,” etc.
History gives no details, but it
is told that the young man wrote
his letter to the sweet tempered
young lady and received this re
ply:
“Sir: My wife has received a
letter from you addressed to her
in her maiden name. Twenty
years ago when she worked in a
factory she might have written the
note. She is the mother of seven
children and is my lawful wife and
if you do not cut out writiug to her
I will take a trip to your town and
make you look like two cents
worth of dog meat.”
The purchaser of “the latest
styles and best goods are describ
ed in our “catalog” is now patron
izing the man who runs the store
in his town, for he has learned
that the “bargains” offered are
mostly delusions and snares.
WE WANT YOU
To Keep Your Money at Home.
Put It in Your Home Bank.
Spend It with Your Home
Merchant.
You may have been getting the
same kind of goods that the Illi
nois farmer in the above article
got, only the note may not have
been in the “pants pocket.”
We are great believers in keep
ing all the money at home you
can, and are, therefore, paying the
highest price possible for every
thing you can raise or make at
home, and only ask you in turn to
compare our prices and goods
with those of catalogue concerns,
or others, before buying.
BUYING GOODS IS, AFTER
ALL, A CONFIDING GAME
FAITH IN THE MERCHANT
AND HIS OFFERINGS. IF
YOUR PURCHASE ISN’T UP TO
STANDARD, YOUR CONFI
DFNCF IS SHAKEN IN BOTH
THE MERCHANT AND MER
CHANDISE. WOOD & SON
STRIVE, AT ALL TIMES, TO
DESERVE YOUR CONFIDENCE.
We will at any time refund jour
money, exchange, or rebate you on
any article purchased from us if
not as repsesented. We positive
ly guarantee every article sold, ex
\
cept shelf worn articles which are
sold at reduced prices. We would
rather make a nickle on each of
ten sales and still have a satisfied
customer, than to make a dime on
one sale and lose the balance; hav
ing learned long since that the
majority want the best when they
eat. We always carry the best
that can be obtained, and at as
low price as it can be sold. (And
we have to carry the cheap ones
too, for those who want them.)
That people have to, and will
eat is proven by the financial
storm which has been affecting the
United States so much for the
past few weeks in every branch of
trade except groceries, which has
held its own, both in volume and
in price. Nothing has declined
except wheat, which was already
too high.
Our own business has continued
to grow in the same proportion
that it has since we commenced,
except Saturday, Nov., 9th., which
showed an increase of over 20 per
cent over any previous Saturday’s
cash sales.
We thank you for the confidence
already shown, and for helping us
build to where we are, and are
now asking you to let us continue
to take care of your wants, assur
ing you that we study each custom
er’s wants separately, in which
claim we believe any of our regu
lar customers will bear us out.
