shall eclipse all previous efforts. 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.
You have been thinking you would
like a new sldehourd or perchance a
