Before Placing Our Immense Stock of -Fall and Winter Clothing we most earnestly desire to eradicate every vestige of
3p27jL0.gr 11 ajo-d
Olotlxi:ogr
FROM OUR COUNTERS.
We therefore make this one last effort extraordinary with the hope that all who need clothing will respond promptly to the call. To those who are incredulous we have only to say that our
fall and winter stock is of such character and magnitude that room is of more vital importance to us at this time than money or profits, and as an indication of our good faith we invite you to look
through our second and third floors where you will see the "advance guard" of our tremendous fall stock and you will at once agree with us that unless the stock on our fust floor is quickly done
away with that our new stock could not be placed to any advantage on our general sales floor. We Inaugurate this sale with all sincerity of purpose; therefore take advantage of these prices which
will hold good until September 3.

that the supply may tie cut off and the
