WE OPEN FOR BUSINESS IN
OUR REMODELLED STORE
We will not be open for business on Wednesday next, De-
cember zith, but take the day to open up the new stocks
and get everything properly arranged in our own store. We
will re -open Thursday morning at 8 o'clock, with every depart-
ment at your service. Come and see the remodeled store and
the big array of holiday goods we have gathered together for
this holiday selling. Most of them should have been on sale
two or three weeks ago, but we had no room to show them
here and had to hold them back until our own store was ready
for us. That means we will have to crowd a whole holiday
season's business into the eleven days before Christmas. We
will be in splendid shape to do it and serve you well and
quickly. Every provision for shopping easily and in comfort
has been provided. Never have we had such an array of the
useful, the practical, the sensible, as well as the beautiful, for
holiday giving as you will find waiting for you on Thursday
morning.
Come and see this big holiday array. Come and see the re-
modeled store. Make it your holiday headquarters -it will
pay.
JUST A FEW DAYS TO SELL THE BALANCE OF
THE DAMAGED STOCK
They will be days big with bargain giving. Tuesday night
must see the last of the fire -damaged goods sold. That means
we have but three or four days to clear them out. It is impos-
sible to give a list here, the quantities in many cases are too
small, but come Saturday, Monday or Tuesday. There will
be many and many a money -saving chance big enough to
make it pay you well to come here. Watch the bargain
tables. They will tell the story of the biggest savings. We
want to dear everything out and have cut the prices of what
is left still lower for the last three days of the sale in order to
do it.
