Mr "ahe Hay While Sun Shines" I1eaclq cart ars For Sporting Goods BICYCLES -Humber, Raleigh, Rudge Is a maxim to be applied with particular force to the dry goods business. But "hay making" time is past -now is Clearing out time, and for the next few weeks of summer business, 15 per cent, 20 per cent, 25 per cent, and in some cases even 50 per cent will drop from the prices of all summer stuffs. Our patrons will buy cheaply, our stock will be reduced.S Successful Storekeeping does NOT mean gigantic pro- fits- t means doing business continually, constantly - selling seasonable goods, even at a loss -before carry- ing them over for many months. Not iHabitually do we profess to sell goods at or below cost -we simply could not do it-butjust now, at this season, we are willing to take cost, or even less than cost, for many lines of summer goods, rather than carry them oyer another season. We have the use of the money they represent for six or eight months, and fresh goods for you next season. You have an oppor- tunity to make your dollars go a little further than usual.
