All of your neighbors have
attended and were well pleased and left our
store strong in their praise of the many
cellent bargains found. Ta make these
last four days more interesting, we have
gone through and Remarked a great many
things still lower. For instance those 35c
Towels that were 13c each during sale have
been marked down to 11c. White bed
spreads that were marked 59c during sale,
now only 5Oc. $5 Axminster rugs, 36x72
was $3.65, marked down to $3.48. Not
only these few items, but numbers of others
are receiving the same attention. Don’t

the Tax Collector to proceed at once
to make the necessary levies to en-
