We have just closed our Semi-Annual Inventory and are getting ready for fall business. Our late Red Tag Sale proved the biggest sale in the his-
tory of our business for June and July. We find quite a good many remnants of all kinds of seasonable goods and many broken lots of men’s summer
suits, many broken lots of slippers, and a few lots of different lines of goods that we thought were good and desirable but for some reason did not sell
weli. All of these are going to sell. You all know our motto, “Never carry goods from one season to the next,” but sell out dean even at a loss and
buy more new goods with the money. We will sustain our reputation. Read following prices :
Every dollar's worth of goods must go. We do not carry over goods. Many lots of goods that the quantity is not large enough to advertise, but
the prices have been cut on all of them. Don’t buy until you see the bargains offer.
