FOWLER. s & co WE have been talking with more earnestness than usual during the entire Fall concerning our business, our wa and how anxious we were to keep business booming. Everything is still on the tip-toe of anxiety and high hope and pectation During the next forty-six days we want to register the largest sales that we have ever done in any forty davs iust before Christmas. Yes, that is what we are working for, and we can't afford to lose a single day, if we expec cut down our immense Stock as we want to do. If the people will keep up the procession^ they have started it Ve realize cur expectations. How to get straight at you and get you interested is the point. We don t mean to even intim that we have all the Goods in the city, nor to say that we can supply everything you ask for, but mark this : YouCl find a place that will come nearer supplying your every want than ours. So you will lose no time by making up 5 minds before leaving home that you will come right to us. Our list of friends who are settling down and coming to na everything is increasing every day. If your name is not already on the list we hope to have it there soon. Can t youc( to see us ? Will bc ^lad to have you, even if it is only to drop in to see how we do business and how things are mo\ along We want to get well acquainted with you. We call your attention to a few Departments. 31! I,fi,IN ICKY. WC feel lliat wo must sell m.?re Millinery than usual during tho next few weeks. There arc very few Hats sold after Christmas, so wu must be up and doing - not a minute to lose. Will oller you inducements in Miliin? ry. This Department is turning out the prettiest llat> for the money it has ever done no doubt about it. Nats at from $1 00 to $3.00 that will astonish you. Never sent out prettier Hats ?it $-.00 and $2.51) than we are doing now. Why is this '! Wo bought the right Millinery at right pr?tes, and have expert Milli ners to put them together. See ? Yes, our Hats make girls look pretty. DRESS GOODS. A glance from a casual looker-on at our Dress Goods will convince them that we have no time to lose ; but we can suit so many people that wo still think you will come to us for your Dress. Our Dress Hoods Department is second to none in thc State. We give it special attention, and can offer you a practical Stock to select from. Your Dress Hoods trade is what we want. Can't you give it to us ? CU lt TAI NS. Sometimes we over-do it in buying. We did it this time on Curtains. It gives our customers a better linc to select from, though. We must push up on sales, though We have a beautiful line in 3, 'l-l and 4-Wyard lengths. No trouble about getting Curtains long enough for your windows from us. Thc prices are reasonable enough, ranging from $2.00 to $7.f>0 per pair in Heavy Tapestry and Rcpt, (known by some as Kaw Silk.) We ?ire exceedingly anx ious to hiive you sec our Curtain Stock. CLOTHING, A plain statement of Clothing facts. Wc have made up our mit), carry no idle capital. We have a large Stock Men's and Boys' Cloting Overcoats. Lt will take big selling to get rid of them duriug thc next weeks. Since wc began advertising Clothing so strong we notice the dei is increasing. We can sell the Clothing when we get the people to look; so wc feel if wc can say anything that will induce you sufficiently to com? quietly investigate our Stock that wc .will sell you-that is, if you wai buy a Suit this Winter. Our Clothing tal"ks very eloquently. There is s thing about thc make, the style, the quality that impresses you. Thc pr ri.'ht, too. We don t like to say too much about the price, for Clotting ei s are usually pretty well posted on prices, and know a bargain when the it. so it is useless to argue on that line. You will readily agree that ourp are dependable, reasonable and low. Dou't have to make all our profits on Clothing-have many oilier lin bel]) out on, you know. Hight here is the place to buy Clothing. Kfoni on until Christmas is your opportunity. SHOES. Herc is another Department in which wc must make big sales. Wi selling lots of them every day, though. We keep all kinds Shoes, youk Baby Shoes, Children's Shoes. Ladies' Shoes, Boys' Shoes, Misses' Si Men's Shoes-Coarse Shoes. Fine Shoos, and all of them of solid leather, just as cheap as they can be sold. As stated in the outstart we want Anderson County and the surrounding territory to come this way. We feel 1 we iust must have them, but know it will take more than talk to get them. We will make th? utmost effbrt to give full value for every cent spent with us.
