DO YOU WANT MOIRE SALARY? Is the question which occupies the minds of all. Everyone wants more salary, whether he is willing to work to make himself worth more to his employer or not. All are seeking for more, more all the time, and who can blame them? The cost of living seems to be constantly growing greater, and in many cases the salaries have not been adjusted to suit. No one would ever think of asking for a 25 per cent increase, but that Is just what we can offer to every patron of our store 25 per cent of a saving in the cost of living is equivalent to a raise of 25 per cent in your salary. No sensible person ever refused more salary; so come, and tell your friends where they, too, can get more salary. We wish to extend to all a cordial invitation to take advantage of our Friday and Saturday specials.
