There is no lino of business that is so susceptible to tho subtle machinations of unprincipled dealers as tho Watch and Jewelry business. Owing to the fact that it is impossible for tho shrewdest business man to cor rectly cstimato thc value of goods in our lino, without previous application, training and study, it is also true that it is a very difficult matter to conclusive ly prove tn our euston)ors that wc give full value for each dollar spout at our place of business ; Therefore, wo can only reiterate our oft-repeated and always practiced assertion, that in every instance and Under all circumstances our customers will fiud us illili HONEST! Judging from tho volume of our business during the past year wo hardly think it possible for many people in this county to hnvo slighted us, by failing to call and see our MAMMOTH JEWELRY AND FANCY GOODS STORE, yet, for thc information of old friend* as well as new acquaintances, I wish to remind you that I am better prepared than ever to supply your wants in my linc.
