ONE WEEK OF RECKLESS SELLING
That's what you'll call it when you learn what is going to happen. Friday morning, March 3rd' at 9 o'lock is
the beginning ot an eventtul week. This great selling event was not decided upon in a moment's notice, but is
the result ot weeks of planning and arranging. Reckless Selling or selling without a profit, as outside merchants will
call it, the buying public cares nothing about so long as one dollar takes the place of two. Thousands of dollar's
worth of staple merchandise which are listed will find their way to the homes of all classes. Merceants who
have not the buing power would be glad to own many lines at the prices you can buy them at during this sale.
If you you care to entertain yourself by comparing the values with any line in Shawnee, or any other city, we
will gladly give you samples and price list.
