This means cheap goods or no sale. I j jhave got the goods and they have trot to lie Hold and as I have 'always said I never allow any one to undersell me, the money is what I want anil that I am going to hay.Q if you come in my (store. 1 have a big stock ns usual, fresh and nice; never have an y old stale stock. ' FRESH GOODS coming in every day. I went in business in 1894 when cotton was about the same prices it is now and I am still . here doing my chare; some predicted that I would not pull through that season. Low priced cotton don't frighten me, I have gone through a hotter battle than this. 1 sold my goods for such small profits, I Hud that it pays to make small profits and quick sales. I have kept it up and don't want to change it. j will say to tljo.se who have stores in the country to come in and I will divide the profits with you as have always done. Some business houses may tell you they carry ? larger stock than 1 do, you can say to them you get more for a dollar AT HINSON'S . than you get'from them, it makes'but little difference to. you how much stocJC'tfvfcy.carry. What you want i ft all you xaii get for your money, f am satisfied with the past and I know I will be with the fhtyfre for I am working just as hard for your iracle as I ever ditlr^omeoix you wifrlmd 'fne at the* same place.
