VTOK co. , BOLD 11V AU , Ds We have completed our annual inventory , figured up our profits , ( pocketed our losses ) , shook hands with ourselves on completing a very satisfactory year's business , thought over our mistakes , turned over a new leaf and resolved to make " 92" a bettor year than " 91. " We find on going through our stock , as every house finds that pretends to do business , a number of "Odds and Ends" ; you know -what they are , broken lines , one suit of a kind , three or four of another , seven over coats and "leven- pairs of socks and so on. While these goods are no better or worse than other goods in the store yet we regard them in the light of a nuisance , as ten to on e t e man that likes them can't get fitted , and the man they'll fit don't like 'em. We'll do as we always do every year. that sometimes makes the man like 'em , that they'll fit. If you need a suit or an overcoat or a shirt or any little thing in the store you're very apt to find just what you want among the "Odds and Ends" and if the size is there We close today at 12:30. : Saturday , at 1O p. m.
