Removing Sale
Commences at 9 o'clock a. m. Monday, Jan. 3, 1916
LASTS TEN DAYS
It is our annual custom to take an inventory every January, and we
naturally want our stock to be as low as possible'at that time. Our trade
has been very satisfactory, but owing to the exceptionally wnrm weather,
we are overloaded on good winter m rchandise. Our object during this sale
is to reduce the stock by selling every dollar's worth of winter goods in
the house.
Profit is no object. We MUST reduce the stock, hence the drastic
prices. Reductions are in all lines—all over the house. We can give but a
few instances, viz:
BIG LOT Ol OVERCOATS AT ONE-HALF: $20 Overcoat lor $10;
$15 Overcoat for $7.50; $12.50 Overcoat for $6.25; $10 Overcoat for $5.00;
$8.00 Overcoat for $4.00.
LADIES READY -TO-WE VR: Any coat or suit at half price, and these
include values up to $30.00. A big assortment for $10.00, and others for
less. First come gets first choice.
COTTON: We want 25 bales of cotton for which, up to Jan. 12th, we
will pay 14 cents per pound for middling cotton—1-4 cash and 3-4 in trade.
OUTING FLANNEL: 10 cent and 12 1-2 cent grades for 7 1-2 cents.
BOYS' < LOTHING: We've cut the life out of profits on this line.
Immense bargains and excellent line to select from.
Regular 50 cent values for 37 1-2 cents, and other
BLANKETS: Full line at one-third reduction,
wool nap blankets for $1.95. Others in proportion.
For instance, $3.00
