Ill UldWluTlUll Has made a most marvelous hit. Our Store has been crowded almost constantly since our first announcement. The Public seem to know and appreciate a good thing ; and why shouldn't they *? when a little time for comparison will con- j ???lee them that we are offering betUv values than others ; j that we are offering, a good article for the price ordinarily asked for the inferior. ^ We mean every word we advertise. By mutual agree ment a change in our firm must take place on the first of January next, and with this in view our immense s|ock of Fashionable, Up~to~Date Merchandise, MUST be very materially reduced, if not closed out entirely. Therefore, in marking this Fall's purchases we have been careful to maik them at an unusually dose margin, and as to Old Stock, Bemnants, Odds and Ends, and all slow-moving Goods they must go even at a great sacrifice. Our 52-inch Broadcloth at $1.10 per yard Has attracted attention far and near. While the demand has been large thc line is unbroken. Foreseeing the popularity of Broadcloths we bought them heavily.
