19 02 - 1903 3
The sands of another year are aim* run.
Old 1902 will soon be numbered with the "has beens."
It has been a busy year with us, Never a days we didn't learn something ne
about the Dry Goods wants of Clinton ladies -never a week we did not find a new way
of supplying them. Always anticipating -always looking ahead.
It is not by accident this store has won the. leadership.
It's the leading Dry Goods store of Clinton because it deserves to be. If it didn't
merit its leadership it wouldn't get it,because Clinton ladies are too intelligent -too dis-
criminating to accept anything but the best goods at right prices. Ladies, we thank
you for your generous appreciation in 1902. For 1903 we will try to be even more
deserving.
Don't Forget You Can Save a Lot
of Money During Ou;r 15 Days Sale
Last Saturday this store was crowded. This week the crowds will be greater for news of the
bargains will have been passed along to friends and neighbors of those who shared in the special
offerings. It would seem almost too much to say that this week the bargains will be bigger than
ever, yet such is the fact for commencing. Friday Morning we will have a
Mark Down Sale of Every Coat in the Store
One of the most important reduction. sales we have ever had commences Friday morning. We
have tried to lose sight of cost and real value of our Ladies' and ChiIdren's Coats, in our determina-
tion to clear out every garment at once. It is a great deal more than the mere sacrificing of profit.
In many cases the new price does not more than cover cost of materials alone.
Every garment in the entire lot was made this season, in style they are strictly up-to-date in
quality,absolutely first-class' and dependable in workmanship fit and finish, everything that even
the mostparticular women want.
These Coats must be cleared out at once and if you are
in need of one come now the prices will ; neve r be lower.
HERE'S THE WAY WE ARE GOING TO SELL THEfl
Ladies' $5 to $6 Coats for $3.50.
Ladies' 7, 7.50 and 8.00 Coats for 4.95
Ladies' 10.00 and 11.:00 Coats for 6.50
Ladies' 12.00 to 13.00 Coats for 8:00
Ladie's $15 to $16.75 Coats for $10
