This stock is selling at whole

loss.
Every purchaser in my store

the Majestio theatqr free. Ar
rangements are belhg made for
good music and if possible some
audevllle stunt.
It matters not If your purchase
is only 25c or less, you will still
get the tioket. Every lady that
buys a ticket at the door will re
ceive a sugar shell or a butter
knife, and the first six will re
ceive one set of spoons each.
There are no other strings to thle
proposition.'
You make some kind of pur
chase at my closing out sale and
I give you a ticket to the theatei
free.
I am digging up stock every

asked about solid silverware—I

bunch of fine neck chains and
i they are very cheap, but are eith

Mr. L—I will get the specta

Now, what do you know about
that? |
I have six-bit boxes of soap at |

dozen for a quarter. Now, that's!
cheaper than you can steal them.
