SMITH CO.’S Sales. 
Street, Beverly, Mass. 
Just 10 days ago we purchased the Woodward & Ober Hardware Stock, 226 Cabot 
This makes 4 stores we have bought out in Beverly within 5 months. They all 
know we have the cash and plenty of it. NO STOCK TOO LARGE — NONE TOO SMALL. 
We watch every sale and every failure. ‘We look after houses on the verge of bankruptcy and ruin with 
cash in hand to buy the lump or the lot of first-class merchandise that we can get at far less than its value and 
to sell at prices that have never been quoted in this market or any other.” We teach you the difference in 
dealing with live and with dead men. Buy here and get double value for every penny you spend. Our prices 
will crush into oblivion those moonshine merchants with their tough and tremendous long time prices. 
Time and space will not permit at this issue to name prices, but rest assured you can buy at just about 
half the price you pay elsewhere. ONLY A FEW DAYS MORE. Then after we close our doors there 
will be weeping and gnashing of teeth at the prices you will have to pay competitors. 
YOUR MONEY BACK IF NOT SATISFIED— ENOUGH SAID. DON’T FORGET THE ADDRESS.
