A LARGE DRY (GODS STOCK
TO BE SOLD AT UNHEARD OF PRICES
Never again will such bargains be within the reach of the public of 0*Neill as I am heralding on the
market, commencing Monday, December 27\ 1915.
My reason for putting on such a sale is well known to the frequenters of my store. I am short on Store Room. I now have merchandise out on the front side
walk, on the floors, and in every conceivable nook, trying to find space for a growing stock. My goods are all new, clean, up-to-date merchandise. I did not get ready
for this sale by bringing in “any odd junk” and trying to sell it. My goods are the same on next Monday, when the sale starts, as they have always been.

BAKERY BULLETIN
We believe if the housewife can find at the Bakery the
loaf of bread that is as good as she bakes at home she will
pass up the bake day drudgery and let the professional
baker do her baking.
We know that our “Mothers Brand” and our “Cottage
Bread” cannot be beat by any housewife in O’Neill—If you
don’t believe it come in and we will show you.
Our line of Christmas Candies is Complete—We fill
fancy boxes with strictly fresh candies—just the kind you
want. A beautiful line of Party Candies.
