An $80,000 Clothing Sale to commence to-day, consisting of Overcoats, Men's, Boys' and Children's Clothing, Hats, and Gent's Furnishings, to be closed out at 40 per cent, below the cost of
manufacturing. In advertising selling out I mean business, and my reasons for wanting to dispose of myimmense stock before JANUARY 15th, 1898, is that I am going to engage
in the wholesale Clothing business and need the room which my retail business now occupies for my piece goods, machines, etc., necessary for the manufacture of Clothing. This is no fake,
neither is it a new venture, as I have had it in contemplation for some years past. Remember, this stock is all brand new. and of the latest styles, and I am determined to sacrifice it. Com$
and take advantage of this sale while the stock is complete. Remember the sale commences to-day. It is a well known fact that we carry the finest line of Clothing in this county, and it can easily be
proven by an examination of our mammoth show windows. Our stock includes the finest of Men's Suits, satin lined ; Overcoats satin lined, and our Children's Suits are the finest in the ,markt,h
including Vestees, Juniors, Reefers and in fact any style you may call for. Such an opportunity will never occur again. Our large stock must be sold at 40 per cent, less than manul
