T1 " Lf A Be Alarmed There is much truth in the statement that merchandise is scarce and will probably be scarcer? that prices are up, and the tendency upward, but there is no need to become unnecessarily disturbed, we have bought over $30,000.00 worth of merchandise for this Fall at a very little advance, and we are going to sell them at the Lowest Price with a very little advance price as long as they last. Ninety per cent of all the Merchandise we sell is exactly the same price as last Fall. If we would have to buy the same Merchandise again we would have to pay at least from 10 to 20 per cent advance. If we can not save you any money this Fall on CLOTHING, SHOES, HATS AND FURNISHINGS We will cheefully refund your money. # J.
