I your h 0ACK /\0h p FOA THE ASKING WITHIN FIVE DAW Which will be the most stupendous Merchandising event ever held in Laurens. Sale Opens Friday Morning, Jan. 21st. At 9 o'clock Friday Morning the doors of Ashendorf's store will he thrown open offering all Winter Goods at a big reduction?~ Goods that in many instances have been in the house but a few weeks. Every yard, every article and every garment offered is up to the Ashendorf standard. No matter what the sacrifice?Everything Goes. The motto of this store is that nothing shall be carried over from one season to another, and no matter how big the sacrifice may be, I want to open every season with New, Fresh, Clean Goods. Our Entire $10,000 Stock of Merchandise to be Sold at Big Reduction This will be the biggest sale that will take place hereabout. 1 want to get rid of everything left over as I can use the money to get new Spring Goods, as my policy is "Everything New and Nothing Carried Over." So if you want your dollar to do the work of two dollars come early. Remember no matter how cheap anything is it is not exaggerated, as you can always do more with goods than with money. I expect to go to New York about February 12th to buy Spring Goods and wish to close out all Winter Goods before I go. Read carefully every item, you will find everything just as represented. Everything is brand new?nothing shelf-worn, as we opened here only last Fall. Come early if you are looking for a snap, we cannot guarantee that everything will be sold. Here is a chance to buy good sea sonable Merchandise at a low figure, as goods were bought before the advance in cotton and woolen goods. So get in on the ground floor and save money and pick up snaps. First :ome, first served. Come the first day. Come any day up to and including Saturday, February 12th, 1910.
