on the above date. Our Bargain Days have
always been a success, and we want this one

ROS., Clinton
argainD Jan. 231
THE biggest and the best ever held in the history of our long established business; it will pay you to drive miles to attend
on the above date. Our Special_ Bargain Days are known all over the county. We have but two in the year, and those
who have attended these sales know. well what they mean. That this will prove to be the best we have yet held will be seen
on the 23rd of January, We are in our big New Establishment since our last great day, and we moved here in a very busy
time.- There are many lines of new goods that at that time were put away in temporary places, that are now turning up as
we are getting ready for stock -taking, which means a great many lii.es to go at ridiculous prices. The following list speaks
for itself. Suffice to say that it is impossible to give as full a list as we would like; and many additional odd lines that are not
included will go equally cheap. In our FURS, which we are most anxious to clear, we give a special discount of 30 per cent
on all lines. Come with the crowds that day; you will be welcome, and you will not be urged to buy. THE "'SALE IS 'A
STRICTLY CASH ONE, AND NO GOODS ON APPROVAL.
