Estate Hodgeos CLINTON YOU MAY SPEND TWO MINUTES OF VALUABLE TIME READING THIS AD, BUT IT WILL PERHAPS PROVE A VALUABLE INVESTMENT WHEN YOU COME TO BUY YOUR CLOTHING. One is inclined to judge with leniency the merchant who, having a stock of goods to sell, if at times he is given to putting matters too strongly in print, to say for example: "That his particular stock is the newest and closest selling in the country, or some other statement equally unsubstantial,for you recognise in an in- stant that;such;statements,when not accompan- ied by prices and description of the goods,are al- most entirely the pitiful, but laudable squirm- ings of the man who lacks that condition, un- der which alone success is to be achieved, namely: the power to buy right." I It is this power that enables us to fearlessly quote the prices for our 37, $10 and 312 Suits, our $2 and $3 Men's Pants, our Boys' Knee Pants at 50 cent s, 75 cents and $1, with an as- sured confidence of their value, knowing that while limitless quantities of cheap factory readymades are offered for sale, the people have confidence in the make, the material, and the fit, of the Suits we make and sell at these prices, and they are quite satisfied to pay a little more and purchase an article that we guarantee will be satisfactory in every respect, and the man who obtains satisfaction in any phase of human existence secures the greatest boon promised to mankind on this earth, • ‘,.., w.,„,„.... ksoo Bros Clothiers, Furnishers, ate. 1 get a &zap Ry snapping the Snaps displayed in our 1 WINDOW Remember the old proverb about "the early bird The Will , Fair Co, News Dealers and Agts. for Parker's Dye Works: SPcoIal•: Sale' OF ALL KINDS ' OF TAIII COMM AT -- Wm.
