THE RED FRONT
CLOTHING
Is our principal line and ordinarily we are proud of
the fact that we have the largest assortment in Cherry
county but at present we are sorry to say that we have
TOO BIG A STOCK
Especially of Winter goods owing to mild weather and
in order to reduce it we are making discounts on heavy
goods amounting in some instances to 5Q per cent
