From now until December 31, the most terrific price
cutting ever known in the history of this Store will be
practiced like Grant at Cold Harbor who after having
13000 men slaughtered in thirteen minutes, silently left
the result of the battle to history. Fagan's Cost Sale of
Clothing will incur considerable loss but the result will be
left to the people who will be the real victors in this price-
cutting crusade.
Think of ten-dollar wool suits for men being sold at
six dollars, that is, if you have the cash.
Men's Black Suits at cost.
Fine Castnere Suits at cost.
Buy's Long Pant Suits at cost.
Knee Pant Suits at cost.
Overcoats at cost.
Mackintoshes \t less than cost.
White Blankets at cost.
My father who had a heart of gold but was human
rind often erred, taught me that an education was a scheme
to avoid work. I firmly believed that all the presidents
had been wood choppers had worn patched breeches and
had never eaten a square meal until they reached the White
House. The opposite is true. They were, all but two,
graduates of fatuous colleges, and I tell you, boys, if you
want to succeed in life you must secure an education and
wear good clothes. Begin right now to show some am-
bition by attending Fagan's Great Cost Sale of Men's
Suits, Knee Pant Suits and Overcoats, at cost ! at
cost ! ! at cost ! ! !
A boy who has j^ood judgment does not want to buck
against the United States and its big billion-dollar corpo-
ration allies who are now importing farmers from every
country on the eastern hemisphere, from the Russo-Chinese
outpost on the Pacific to the downtrodden Irish in the
British-conquered Emerald Isle in the Atlantic, at the
stupendeous rate of one million per year. Boys you can't
compete with them farming : there are too manv. Get a
good education and then come to Fagan's Store and buy
one of those splendid cassimere Suits—YOU GKT IT AT
COST, RKMKMBBK, Put it on and walk into the office
of the manager of a railroad company and get a job at
$75 or $100 per uionth.
Texas should mount a golden hog over the dome of
the capitol as a continuous reminder to her representatives
that tin- hog has been legislated out of the state in the in-
terest of the packing house trust and the wire trust.
Turn the Texas hogs loose and there will be plenty of
sausage, ham gravy, cracklin bread, lye hominy, soap
grease and no boll weevil. You see there is nothing that
the Texas rooter enjoys so much as eating a boll weevil
while he possums and there will be plenty of cotton,
plenty of money and a good fiddler in every farm house,
that can play by note- -not the cracker-jack kind of a note
that the bank holds against this store, that is such a"
strong incentive for Fagan's Great Cost Sale of
CLOTHING.
To them that hath shall be given,
That's why these ads are sent
To the people who have ready cash,
To take advantage of just such an event.
CUT FOR CASH.
