What Shall I Get

We know what . a momentous
question this is, and to help the

one of the reasons why we are in

power of capital, brains and selec
tlone at onr command ia bringing
yon THE BEST GOODS WE CAN
GET AT THE LEAST POSSIBLE
PRICES.
CUR FALL f OODS of every description,
both stylish and handsome, givss
our store a pretty look, and we are
ready for the early bnyers. ALL
SUMMER GOODS LEFT WILL
BE SOLD AT UNHEARD OF
PRICES and we intern! to keep
busy as ever by offering the SEAS
ON ABLE GOODS AT LOW
PRICES.
An Inspection of Our Offering will con
vince you that never before has
such artistic combinations of color
and textnre been displayed, and
that we have not been idle during
the snuimer months.
The Fresent Merchandise moment is not
a spuein. BiiiU and shams find no
place in our system. THE LOSSES
we will look after; you can at
tond to the GAINS.
NOT A WEEK, hardly a day passes,
without New Styles coming to the

ever before.
he object of our establishment is to fix
in the public mind such quotations
as these, which we are prepared to
answer at our store:
Where mm I get tills or that?
Where cun 1 unitch tills?
Where tun I gut the Intent?
Where can I nut that bent of everything?
Where are the prices the lowest?
