Of ouis to make a Special January Sale or Blankets every year,
we certainly would not have done so now. The reason is plain.
With the exception of the lower priced cotton grades, we have not
a single pair of Blankets in stock that it would not pay us better to
carry over till next season than sell now, because we'll have to pay
more for them by a good big percentage than we are now asking.
Thai's a I'lain Business Proposition, over which there is no room
for argument, and it will be to the interest of oui friends to govern
ern themselves accordingly.
JUST OXK WOKII MORE Hitherto it has been a rule with us
to continue'the special prices on Blankets all through the month of
January. This year t lie Sale Lasts for 10 DilJS Only, and in any
event is limited to the quantities named, whether they hold out
or not.
