Our First Semi-Annual
30 DAYS Hi F A N-l IP SALE 30 UAy5
OF SUMMER GOODS. BEGINNING JULY 14 AND CONTINUING TO AUGUST 13
We have just completed our July inventory, and find we have enjoyed a prosperous business during the pa-t season. Our business has exceeded our most sanguine
expectations and now we can afford to dispose of the remainder of our stock at a sacrifice in order to clean up and make room for our vast Fall stock, which will becom
ing in soon and which will be the completest stock we ever had. We are not making any extravagant claims and we are not advertising a single article that we will not
display at a price that we will not sustain. Please note the prices we quote below and then come and let us verify them. During this great Clean-Up Sale the prices
on every article in our house will positively be greatly reduced and many things will go below cost. We are not trying to fool you into spending your money with us.
We are not having our sale run by a Chicago firm of smooth-talking advertisers. Chicago sales companies charge 10 per cent for conducting a sale. Who pays for that!
You do; he adds that on to the prices to you. We want to say to those who think all Sales are fakes, humbugs and skin games, that if you attend our sale and buy goods
from us, and after you have gone home and thought the matter over and decide you have been skinned, hum-bugged or havn’t got your money’s worth, bring the goods
back and get your money.
