is to give US the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that
we pay more tor lurs and make quicker returns than you can get any
where in the country. We have been iu business in Alaska lor 36 year# and
have built up a very extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all
parts of the United States. Canada «nd in a great many European Cities.
Kv shipping to us you are not mily helping an Alaskan industry but
you are helping yeumedf to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely as we buy direct from the trap
per and trader and sell direct to the consumer, thus we are able to pay
yon a better price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RF.TTTRNS

If »« desired when your shipment amount* to $100.00 or more, we will
wire our bid and if not entirely satisfactory you way wire at our expense
and we will ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fait with yourself as well as with us and
make u* a trial shipment, the result will make you a steady shipper.
