When you pay 10c for 1 oz. of potato chips ? 5c for %-oz. popcorn ? 5c for %-oz. peanuts? Or how many 10c boxes of crackers do you suppose a bushel of wheat would make? How much do you pay for a gal lon of water when you pay 10c for a 6-oz. 'soda pop? Think of payin' 20c per oz. to have coffee ground so you drink the coffee instead of the juice ? (good though). How many cans of chicken soup would a big fat hen make? (I'm not talkin' about this chicken noodle soup ? I ? well, you may know of chick ens that have noodles ? not me I. I get dizzy when I get to figurin' such things ? but now that I've warned you ? do as you please. I have these and many more just as bad to sell. Come in and see for yourself.
