MOVING LIVELY NOW As stated when we opened the High Grade Sllirrilll RllgSalC, wo were afraid that c would find It hard to move these expensive goods, even at half price, Wc confess to malting a mistake, for we've never had livelier selling In any department than has been the case with these rugs at just fifty cents on the dollar. True, they arc an unpre cedented bargain bargains that could not be duplicated, were it not that Kerr, Son & Co. 's stock was bought at Sheriffs Sale at less than half price. The same remarks, of course, apply to our high grade Carpet stock, from which we can sell you the best Uody Brussels Carpet made as low as 50 cents per yard, but It's Smyrna Hugs we're talking today, and if you're will be lo your advautagc to HALF PRICE OPPORTUNITIES Don't come often in that line, out much longer. Three illustrat'ons in values will suffice: They represent the first quality of Smyrna Hugs made: Size 18x36 in., that usually brings $1 75, sells for 87 cents. Size 30x60 in., listed at $4.25, sells for $2.12. Size 6 ft. xo ft., for small rooms, that slid for $13, goes at $1150. "There's lower grades if you want them, sizes 30x60 inches, at $1.50 and ft 75 each. 5. Q. KERR, Agent. Opposite Main Entrance lu NVyomlnc Haute.
