As a rale, no one has complained that the poods in 

 our counter store were high-priced, tor, in fact, the 

 success of the plan depended on selling goods for 

 even change, and that the labor saved by so doing 

 would enable us to sell them less than usual. Well, 

 there have been a few complaints that some of the 

 ~5-cent goods were high in price. The reason of this 

 is, that any article costing 15 cents or over must be 

 sold, a single one at a time, for 25 cents. We have 

 often thought of a SO-cent counter, but disliked more 

 complication. However, the trade has at last grown 

 to it. Below we give you a list of the goods taken 

 out of the 25-cent counter, which will be hereafter 20 

 cents each. Wholesale prices will, of course, be as 

 heretofore. Also some new goods.
