CHARITY.—We understand that the
Charity Committee have had many
calls for wood during the cold weather,

supplied. It has been hard work for
the Committee to get wood, even at
high prices, to supplyurgent demand.

difficulty in visiting, as the snow is
deep.

ARCAIm'
The way to do a thing is t0 do it. If we'advertise a
Bargain Day we know we have got to have Bargains
for the people or we might better save the money 'we
spend advertising it,
We did not expect, we did not even hope for the tre-
mendous success of our last Bargain Day. Your evi-
dent appreciation of our endeavor to establish these
Monthly Bargain Days has nerved u s to greater efforts,
and we present to you this week a list of Bargains that
discount -any previous offering. Mary'of the lines ad-
vertised are New GoOds, small lots' from the wholesale
stock€ that they were willing to clear out at prices that
enable us to sell them away below their value. Many
of the lines advertised we have only limited'quantities
of; they are the Remnants and Oddments, the tail end
of stock; we must sell them that day, and have made the
price accordingly. The best of these always go first,
while there will be an abundance of Bargains for you
all day; still, if you want first and best choice, come as
early as you can. ,

"Artistic Dress"
0
A great deal of amusement is often obtained by some brains
out of the fact that people generally desire to be well
dressed. Well, we are willing to grant the pittance
of amusement so obtained, but are established in the
opinion that ono of the greatest signs of the most ad-
vanced civilized conclititon of mankind is denoted by
the clothes he wears. A refined person wishes, to dress
becomingly just as naturally as he wishes to partake of
enough food to keep his hunger satisfied and life in his
body. Man surrounds himself with the beautiful s,nd
comfortable as far as lies in his power, and in no direc-
tion does he do this as in the clothing he wears.
We call attention to the fact that our mission is the supplying
of Artistic Garments to the male sex, and the particu-
lar pieces specified' for some of our Suits are
$10, $12,. $15, $17, $18' and $20 for SUITS, the

CAS vs. CREa/IT
There is much being said, and done about business. The
question is whether it is better to do a strictly cashx
� f 5
business, or as usually done, Cash and Credit. Some
are taking the stand for cash or ready pry -only: `' e,_
are not doing so, as we consider it better not, as there.
are times when the best customers have not cash to
pay, as is frequently the case with farmers, as their re-
turns come in the fall. We are prepared to furnish
customers with all the goods they may require for
Cash or Credit. We will allow six per cent off for
Cash, as money is worth that percentage in business
and we are prepared to sell as cheap as any one in th
trade. We will not be undersold by anyone.
