I Great After-Holidays
Clearance Sale
AT
| TVYiller's
We have just finished up to the Holidays by far the larg-
I est business we have ever had. Now for the after part of the
9 season—we want it to equal or, if possible, surpass the ferc
g part. We are aware most shoes for winter are sold before th :
| Holidays, but we are going to ofier inducement* which anyone
I who is thinking of buying the next two or three
Q months cannot afford to miss. We are dcteim :, ied to turn
H every pair of boots and shoes in this store into money between
I now and spring.
Greatest Bargains Ever Offered in Butler.
January 10 we commence to take stock. We want to re
duce our stock bcfoie that tim •, and fiom now till then we
are going .o sell gaods regardless of cost. Our immense trade
necessitated us earn ing a very large stock, which must nrw
Le turned into noney. These are all clean, new goods, bought
0 this winter for spot cash and made by the very best manufac
-1 turers in the country; they came in {ill the different materials
l| and made after the very larest and prettiest new designs.
EVERYTHING MUST GO.
Tin's is a genuine after Holidays clearance sale, and will
last till every pair of boots and shoes in this store is turned
into money. It includes everything in the line of footwear ~
women's fine and every day footwear, men's fine and every
day footwear, boy's, girls' and infants' fine ?nd every day
shoes. All must go; do not wait till you are needing them,
!but come at once, as the best are always picked out first.
2. Two Large Bargain Counters. 2.
We have put up two bargain counters; have g<»i e
through our stock, picked out all lines *vhich were short some
sizes and have put them on these counters at a fraction of what
it cost to make them.

FELTS AND RUBBERS AT A SACRIFICE.
The weather man tell* us the hardest of the winter is yet to come, and
for cold weather nothing is so serviceable as a pair of good felt boots. We
have had a very i rge trade on thes? goo3s, but on account of the immense
amount of felts and rubbers we bought last fall wo are still over-loaded, po
we have decided to lose money on every pair of rubbers and felt baots sold
