The four pillars upon which

We have endeavored to keeprat all times not only

In fixing prices on our goods :
WE DO NO ASK OURSELVES
‘How much will the people be willing to pay” for

BUT THE QUESTION IS,
‘How small a margin can we add to the cost price

“We know we. have been successful in building up
a large trade that is not confined to. Nevada City,
but extends to the surrounding country. We do no.
