On the first of January, 1909, there will be
a change in the style of our firm which will en-
able us to carry a larger stock, better assort-
ment and higher grade of Merchandise than we
have heretofore done. In order to do this we
must cut our present stock down. It is not a
question of profit, but a stubborn fact that the
bulk of our immense stock of $30,000.00 worth
of Good Clean, Seasonable Merchandise must
and will be sold within the next THIRTY
DAYS. Sale begins - - -
Tuesday, Dec. 1st, 1908,
promptly at 9 o'clock, and runs through the en-
tire month of December.

Junipers, will be reduced to and l>elo v cast, of manufacturer's cost of produc-
tion. This sale is a cold blooded business proposition with us, not philan
thropic. we need the hard cash to carry out our plans for the year 15)05), and
