WC Will U11CI UUIgtUUH 11131 Will It llrHCU o This year's business closes January 81st. That means that we begin our inventory Febru This is strictly a ririce sale and will be creneral. We have seen the fnllv of merphflnta picking out unsaleable merchandise, ana marking it down to tempting prices and attempting to make up the loss on other lines. We shall not try the plan of marking a few jfo A things down as a blind, but we will insist upon all offerings advertised or otherwise being uniformly low-priced and uniformly desirable. jj January the month which ie conceded by other merchants to be the dead or dull month has become our busiest or biggest month, and why? Read the prices below JS fjl and be convinced. January of last year was our biggest month of all the year and we have carefully planned to far surpass even that of last year. By judicious buying and JJ A successful selling we are enabled to offer you first-class and clean merchandise. We have kept our stock up so that your selection may be made from a complete line. We JJ have a few lines which we expect to close out. On these the cost has not been taken into consideration. For instance we have a few Ladies' Suits that we expect to sell for JJ ri little more than the buttons and the thread alone would cost.
