THE ALLIANCE STORE will go out of busings at the close of this year, ii' not earlier. My physicians have advised that I cannot stand the strain of the mercantile business any longer. The Directors, of tha Store arc unwilling to accept my resignation as Manager and elect another man in my place. So the only alternative left is to close out, and we realize fully in order to do so speedily it will be imperative to oiler great inducements in prices. Unfortunately for our Stockholders we bought a much heavier and better Stock of Fall and Winter Goods than ever before. It vas au error in judgment, but I thought in July and August that we were lu*, mg a big crop in this country, and would get a good price for it, but it is cut both ways, und our idea is the first less is the easiest borne. We have a cash oiler from a party in New York to take our entire stoek st so much on the dollar, but it ia so much less than real intrinsic value for fresh, new, desirable Goods, we have decided that where we are forced to give away anythingwe prefer that our own people shall get the benefit of it. Hence we inaugurate A SLAUGHTER SALE All through the Store. Heretofore we have endeavored'to maintain the one price system, but now in order to close out in a short while, quantities will necessarily be something of a leverage in prices, as it is necessarily less ex pense to close out quickly than to take a long time to do so. Again, it is impracticable to sell all lines at a uniform cut rate. It is im portant to reduce the stock uniformly, so as to keep a good assortment intact, thereby enabling us to fit up every customer. Any articles we are specially ovcretocked in we will naturally cut lower at first, and afterwards we may make further reductions on lines not moving so rapidly. For instance we are OVERLOADED in- ? Shoes, Men's Clothing, . Hats and Furnishings, And Ladies' Fine DFPSS Goods, Millinery and Notions, Aud we have CUT PRICES on many ef these Goods TO THE QUICK. Remember, these Special Prices are for PROMPT CASH only. An early visit to our Store will handsomely pay any would-be purchaser. Very respectfully, Mea N. B.-All who are indebted to us will confer a great favor by prosapt payment.- . WE WON T DECEIVE YOU ! svv e nie Iii Business fer the Money that is in it, and not for onr health* During .these panie times we propose to not only meet but beat any price on anything in our line ! " . WE have a new, slick, nobby line of IIH Boots, Hats, Gp, Ja^iiD?, And everything in the lise cf GENERAL MERCHANDISE needed for fam ily use. We have the best line'of- ' , tiour, Sugar, Coffee, Tobacco, Lard, Meat, Hains, l?oe, ?rits, &c.. To be found in these parts, and "COST" i?n't tho word to express how cheap we are selling these Goods. * We do a large businesswith'a small force, and have been fairly success ful*, io if come men, with heavy expenses hereabouts, can sell for ''Cost," we can sell lor less, even if we have to drink branch-water while we are at it. So if you want to buy your Fall Shoes and Dry Goods WHERE YO?I ?AN DO THE BEST, Don't fail to.see us, for we are in tho ring, and into stay, "Cost" or no "Cost." Wc have made up cur mind on sonic things ?n. r?gard to selling Goods for less money than other people who do a small business on heavy expense. , - Yours very truly and earnestly, BROWNLEE as^ mt *t X OCTOBEE 20, 189?.
