Past experience has taught us that It Is a "good thing," and hus also suggested n means of "pushing It along" to the mutual benefit of the public and our selves. We llud by a cureful review of the transactions 6f the past year that we have sold more goods at sac rlllce prices thun ever before. This fuct explains another of greater im portance to us, namely: The space formerly occupied by so culled (which were perhaps finished a little too dark, or a little too light, or possi bly slightly damaged), hus uliundant ly paid for the amount lost on the orig inal article. Hence tho resolve that every artlclo In our vast establishment not strictly up to date must make room for fresh, new, spring goods.
