F. WEDNESDA Y, DECEMBER 1. We are going to make it easier than ever be fore lot you to make all the Christmas presents you care to by giving you better bargains than you have been used to. The greatest problem of the buyer is to make his money hold out long enough to buy something for every one to whom he wishes to make a present. The great est problem of the seller is to dispose of all goods that are only seasonable during the Holi days. The solution to both these problems is the same LOW PRICES. We intend to carry nothing over and on many articles have made the cost price the selling price. On some others the selling price is less than cost. On nothing is there a big profit asked.
