A Frank Statement to the People of Laurens IWANT to get the trade of all the best people in Laurens by proving that il will pay them to give me their business. Don't mistake my meaning when 1 say the "host" people. I have in mind the business, not the social, value of the man or woman when 1 say _ best;" and while the rich and well-to-do are of course included in my meaning of "best." the word ex presses much more than that. The "best " class of trade is that larg est number of i he peo ple of Laurens who are thrifty; who look ahead; \vh to get the best value for the price they pay. They are s A DIFFERENCE IN DIAMONDS I sell only white Diamonds. Stones ordered for customers, any size wanted at lowest market prices. ?'. Solomon. The Reliable Jeweler.

This "best" trade stays with the jeweler who proves to his customers thai it is best for thorn to stay with him. My plan for getting this "best trade is to invariably sell what is beat for my customer to buy. She docs not always know what is best to buy ; I do. I propose to put, my knowl edge entirely at her service, ignoring the temporary advan tage to Die in selling her what would (at present) pay me. best to sell her. I am not looking for temporary gains; I am building for the future on the foundation-rock of the'prjhlie confidence.

Therefore, if the jeweler would build up an en during business it business that would constantly w i d e n through the favoring word of pleased cus tomers?he must sc. eure that public con fidence which is as much a part of his capital us it is of a banker's capital. So I shall strive to deserve the confidence of the people of Laurens by iuvaribly selling what is best for the customer to buy; by stating rallies as they truly are, in exacting knowledge of their worth ; and by an unvarying prac tice of "tho square deal."
