We made the greatest pre- parations we ever made for any sale, and expected the greatest rush. But the rush did not come, and the goods are left on. our hands. Rain, rain, rain, and cold weather nearly all tie month, was the cause. There was no need for Nice -Fine Shoes in such weather. People could not wear themif they had them. So our immense stocks of FINE SHOES still on our shelves. We have got to make up for it in June. We have got to not only do the ordinary June trade, but to make up the shortage on our May sales. We were the losers, but you can now be the winners. The nature of our business requires a certain turn- over every month. During the month of June/ it will be a matter of getting money, not making money. Please to take notice, therefore, that we will continue the sale through -Tune, and that the goods have got to go. We make it a rule to avoid carrying goods over from one season to another, It will take special efforts to carry this out this season. But if the greatest bargains ever given will accomplish it, we will succeed. And" be sure that you secure some of them. • ...A._ ?
