gains. Read and profit :

48 pair Men's patent Leather Shoes, for $ 1 .49.
The above' is but a faint idea of the many bargains. No doubt many thous
ands will appreciate what it means to buy their shoes for less money than any
where else in Scranton. There are many reasons for these radical reductions. First,
an immense stock of Boots, Shoes and Rubbers, anticipating usual trade. Next, the
conditions cf past months lack' of work for wage earners, lack of confidence, the
holding off of those able to buy, have left us with a larger stock than we care to risk
on a late demand. Bear w mind tbe power of cash was never so forcibly illustrated.
