MEN'S. BOYS' AND CHILDREN'S SUITS AND OVERCOATS REDUCED ONE-HALF
On Saturdety, January 11th we will commence our big twice yearly Bargain Carnival.
Our method has always been, when a season was almost over, to clean up all the small and
broken lots at an actual reduction of 1-2 the regular selling price in order to open the follow
ing season wiih a clean, fresh stoclv and our thousands of customers know that when they
come to this store they get only the most stylish and up-to-date garments.
THE SEASON JUST ENDING HAS BEEN VERY SATISFACTORY
But not as good owing to the mild weather and recent so-called panic as we had anticipated and prepared for. This leaves us with
an unusual assortment to offer our patrons during this sale. Come early come expecting the greatest clothes bargains ever offered
in Omaha come expecting something different from the general run of sales come expecting Tionest reductions as quoted below
come expecting all these things, and you will not be disappointed.

Quality! Quality!
The one essential which the bousewife should keep in. mind when
ordering groceries is quality. There are several good reasons for this.
Tbe most important one to the ordinary family is economy. Good food
is more nutritious and necessarily goes farther. The human system is
kept in better condition when supplied with food that is pure and fresh.
The grocer who handles the best grades deals on a closer margin and
never overcharges. Therefore it is economical to deal with him. Place
your order this week.
