Christophere Columbus, the | undaunted navigator, found the | bow and arrow in the hands of the mm wary Red Man upon his landing in this, the land of the free and home I* of the brave, great, grand and glor- |= h lous America. In later years Piercing Arrows in the hands of J* these same re*' men, who at first | joyfully greeted the Great Discover- | er, left death and desolation in the 8 J* wake of these bold and hardy pi- 8 i m oneers who had braved the dangers of the great unknown, and in ev- 8 I* ery mighty battle of those early ^ days these piercing shafts played a prominent part in the history that T* destiny ad pre-ordained. ^ These piping times of peace find the red warrior calmly dreaming ** his life away upon the fertile plains ^ of the West and contentment reigns supreme, except that civilization *i* has wrought queer changes and toll day the modern merchant is fighting trade battles that for intensity *#* of purpose are as mighty as any . H ever waged by the warriors of old. ? and learning through the school of " ingenuity and thrift haq compelled the ancient and modern to respond * to his call and has turned the ? Piercing Arrow to his advantage ?{ and here to-day in Dillon it is not _ only casting death and desolation ! upon high prices, but is doing yeomen service in dollar saving for the _ people. These piercing emblems of ? the mighty and modern trade bat J* ties are penetrating the heart of _ prices here. Buy it Now?Pocket the Diffenence * ALL HOLIDAY GOODS AT* -5ALE PRICE-5.
