' Since the fourth of last July-
A I’ve beeuilaying pennies by ' -
-
And all of these I mean t giro V
' To the heathen" who now lives
In a land of darkest night
j r
’ And help send them the Gospel Light
So den't yotLsee I’ve gathered now-
Quite a few I’ll tell you how'
I saved each -one' 1 did not spend
A one for candy or for gum
t
My papa gave me some of these
I surely thin V that he is pleased
Now others gave sonic to me
To send away across the ’ sea
I thank the Lord for all He gaye
And pray that they some soul may save
By' sending them the Word of -God
Which tells the 'Way -the Saviour trod
Now children let’s be good and true
In after years God may send you
To some dark land to reseno- lost -0
live for God at any cost '
' " If Ha should send you or I
Let’s labor for Him until we die

Mere ohetpneae U a snare— delusion Cheap goods are dear at any
price You must get quality to realy economize We sell only good
Merchandise and naturally we price it so asttf make a profit But close
touch with the market enable us to constantly offer quality good at ler
thaiv regular price and becauae of the low prices quality offering are
