On every purchase made at our store, the buyer saves something, sometimes a good deal, sometimes only a little, but always some- thing. There are several reasons for this. One is, that we are good buyers, that is, we keep posted on prices and places to buy, and we buy at the right time and place. Then, again, we do not try to make all our income on each sale. We take a small margin, and depend upon the volume of . business for our profits. We will have to sell a great quantity of the following goods, at the prices named, to make anything, but we believe the prices will sell them : Ladies' Vests, 10c each., Ladies' Black Hose, 7c a pair. Children's Black Hose, 7c upwards. Silk Handkerchiefs, 10c each. Fancy Handkerchiefs, two for 5c. White H. C. Quilts, 97c each, Men's Neglige Shirts, 45c each-. Flannelettes, Go per yard. Towels, 5c a pair, Dress Goods, 5c a yard. Printed Challies, 8c per yard. Delainettes, 10c a yard. Linen Tabling, 19c a yard. Ladies' Mantles, $3,25 each.
