WHERE ARE YOU?
\ There is a happy mean
A spot betwix and between
Not too high nor too low.
Are you paying too much for your Buggies?
VVre you sure sure you are getting what you pay for?
Wp carry two grades of buggies only. The Moon and the
Columbus. The Columbus is the lowest price, and the qual-
ity is not as good as the Moon. A close examination of this
$o5 Columbus buggy will prove to you that it is as good as
any $75 job offereaby any concern in town. If you want to
pay $ 100 for a buggy, you can only find this much actual
value in a Moon job. There is individuality in our buggies.
They are not made by factories that make plows aijid wagons
and make buggies as a side line, but are made by nrien who
have spent their lives in the shop making buggies. All their
time is spent in making good buggies better.
When you are asked $65 for a buggy, we can give you
better value for the same money.
Bear in mind that there is only one make of bucrgies in Al-
tus that is worth $100, and this is the JOS. W. MOON.
WHAT WE DID ON FIRST MONDAY.
We sold $450 worth of Vehicles and Harness and every cus-
tomer got a bargain. We are going to continue making low
prices during August in order to clean up our large stock.
W. M. Lett of near Headrick drew the buggy that we gave away.

with bois d'arc rims and our price while this car
lasts is -------- ,J$80

are going to need a wAgon this fall, better buy it now.
Remember this is the wagon that we write a guarantee
on if you wish it.
