THE SCRANTON TOTBUNE-PRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1900.
CONNOLLY & WALLACE
SCRANTON'S SHOPPING CENTER.
THE JANUARY CLEARANCE SALE
We advise you to be on hand for this advent. Our clearance sales are bona-fide. Our reputation for doing just as we advertise is too
well known to admit of any statements that are not actually so, and we will not waste your time, nor ours, talking about ordinary values as com
monplace things. This advertisement talks' 6f wonderful reductions in seasonable merchandise all winter goods being marked down to quick mov
ing figures many to half and less. The outgoing winter goods leave space, at once re-occupied by the incoming spring goods, and we will surprise
this community in a few days with the greatest sale of spring goods this citv has ever seen. In the meantime the Clearing Sale goes on. The store
never offered better opportunities for close buying than now. You cannot afford to neglect Connolly & Wallace during the next few days.
ON FURS-Our January Mark-Down Sale of Furs
Although the fur-wearing season has only begun we realize that the fur-selling period is grow
ing shorter. In marking down prices we haven't considered cost, but we have considered the ad
vantage of reducing stock to the lowest point possible. The prices we will name have no beating
whatever on the actual value of the goods. Sufficient to say, that such bargains have never been
offered in high-grade, reliable furs, and that, price and quality considered, each article is an excep
tionally good investment for many years to come.
Neck Scarfs, Storm Collars, Collarettes, $3 to $50.
The Great Reductions in Prices of Winter Coats
Thousands of women have been waiting for this announcement. They need wait no longer.
Our clock is set fast. It strikes the hour for departure of goods long before yours marks the end of
their time of usefulness. Hence bargains like these, rich and seasonable. The Winter Jackets must
out. The odd ones the ones and twos and thiees of a kind the whole stock. We may not have
your fit in every style, but you couldn't miss a bargain if you picked with your eyes shut. Two
hundred Jackets of the best styles we had this season to be sold this way.
At $s All Coats that were from $8to$io, At $7.50 All Coats that were from $11 to $15. At $10 All Coats
that were from $16 to $20. At $12.50 All Coats that were from $21 to $25. At $15 All Coats that were
from $25 to $30. C?.v"Cloth Capes, Golf Capes, Plush Capes to be sold on the same basis as the Coats.
Women's Tailored Suits
They are not Connolly & Wallace
Suits unless they are a little "dif
ferent," and they are not Connolly
& Wallace Suits unless they are a
little "better." These are two
characteristics that we maintain
throughout. Nothing of the com
monplace either in style or value.
At the new reduced prices there are
some astonishing bargains among
these suits. They are new in ma
terial and style, excellent in work
manship. You may have
