Having been fortunate enough to secure the agency for the Blau-Gass, we are going to reduce our immense Hardware Stock and evenually close it out entirely, retaining only the Heating and Plumbing end. In order to accomplish this quickly we are making the prices quoted in this advertisement. This sale will coutinue uniil we find a buyer for our stock and will give you an opportu nity to get goods at less prices than they were ever offered in Plattsmouth before. It is impossible to itemize prices on every item, as it would take over a month to go through and ite mize everything separate. We wish to state that outside of heating and plumbing material we are not holding back anything, but will discount every article, as we are positively going out of the hardware end ot our business. With the new line that we have taken it will take all the time we have to give it proper attention, and if there anything you need in the hardware line you would do well to look over our stock. We are going to advertise our stock for sale in the leading papers and very likely will have a buyer for the entire stock in a very short time, so if there is anything you need it would be well to get it atonce.
