j Wastefulness

| To save money in purchasing is a duty everyone owes a
jj to Lis business. "Price” buying, however, does not always jj
mean economy.
A few dollars "saved” in buying a typewriter may turn out to '^|
be many dollars wasted and make an expense of what should
i have been an investment.
I The higher price paid for the
L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter
i is paid for the greater amount of superior work it will turn out
and its greater durability.
You will be surprised to learn what a great difference there is
in typewriters. The cheapest is usually the most expensive.
