-WLnkh fftrtfame i tl drt ? -. TWENTY-EIGIITII YEAR. NORTH PLATTE, NEB., JANUARY 13, 1914. No. 102 mkttt mi Mttvm L.P 'V 1 1 C. 0. Weingand Slashes Prices For ten days past C. 0. Wein gand, the clothier, has been sell ing Suits and Overcoats at a discount of thirty-three and one third per cent, and giving a very liberal discount on other classes of merchandise, and the result lias been very gratifying to Mr. Weingand and very satisfactory to the purchasing public. There has been an absolute reduction of one-third on the selling price of suits and overcoats there was no marking up of prices and then a reduction. A $15 suit or over coat is offered for 310 and the same proportionate cut is made on all suits and overcoats, except blue serge suits, on which the reduction is twenty-five per cent. By oftering these liberal dis counts, Mr. Weingand is enjoying a big trade and it looks' as though the end he desires to attain that of closing out allsuits and over coatswill be reached. Like many other clothiers, Mr. Weingand purchased more suits and overcoats la'st fall than the trade demanded the early part ot the season, this being largely due to the oipen winter "ve have so far had, ahcl rather than carry them over for another season he is disposing of them at a discount of thirty-three and one-third per cent. This is certainly a money saving opportunity for those who need suits, overcoats, shoes, un derwear and other articles of apparel. Having been in business so short a time, Mr. Weingand has no old stuff on hand, every thing is fresh, the best of fabrics and the latest models. When you buy at Weingand's you get quality goods the cream of the manu facturers' productions. Adv Local and Personal.
