Unequaied in general attractiveness and low price giving by any house in the world. Positively the first appearance in Scranton of this great aggregation of buying opportunities. The machinery of our two big businesses has been preparing for this big carnival for many weeks. Every department in this stone has felt the keen blade of the knife that has cut prices and profits into shreds and losses. And though the high standard of quality sticks to the goods, there's not an item nor an article in all the five floors of this big building but what has been given a new and little price for this sale. In many cases, prices have been cut in two. In nearly every instance, a quarter of value has been shaved of. Nothing has escaped the profit destroyer. Like the victories at Manila and Santiago, we mean that this sale shall live in memory for all time to come. Never will you forget it for never will goods have been sold so cheap. Not a store in America but what we defy comparison as to prices we positively refuse to be undersold. And we honestly promise to save you more money during the short period of this sale than you'd ordinarily save in two months of shopping even in this great store, where prices are always lowest. Special attention given to mail orders. All goods delivered free no matter where. -H.4.4-4444444444444.4- I Grocery x Department. 4444444444444444444444 Finest Grade Teas, For mosa, Oolong, English Break fast and Japan equal in qual itv to that sold elsewhere for 80c per lb 40c Aurora Blended Coffee, special 1 2iC Best Elgin Creamery But ter 18c Sugar Cured Hams 8C Leader.
