MISTROT BROS. <£ CO.. OF LA ORANGE
GREAT - CLOSING - OUT - SALE.
|T is a sad event to Mistrot Bros. & Co. to have to retire from LaGrange. We know that the people of Fryette county are
interested in our business to such an extent that they have considered it a fixed institution and a public necessity. We
__ know that the wage earner of LaGrange and surrounding towns have figured their cash earnings on a basis with what it
would buy at Mistrot Bros. & Co. We are aware that the farmers of this county have contented themselves with the low price of their
product because they figured what the proceeds would get at Mistrot Bros. & Co. With the knowledge of these conditions confronting us
at all times, knowing that we were the great whe°l of commerce around which revolved the other wheels of different industries of the
county lending light and life to them, we have always endeavored to be kind and just to our trust. We have used the best means at
our hands to deserve the position we held relative to the county’s interests and have served the public with fidelity, uprightness and with
all available skill We have taken advantages of the markets of the world which were at our feet, and the people have always had through
their dealings with us the The World’s Best at the World's Lowest. But all friends must part! and with sorrowful heart we are now bid-
ding you good bye! We know that we have been appreciated and therefore we do not turn our backs to you without giving you a fare-
well shake. Good-bye, good-bye ! Ere we have left the portals of your domain, may another enter and serve you as well as we.

Damon Had a Pythias, Fayette County Had Mistrot Bros. & Co.
Alas, friends ! Judging from existing conditions during a period of many years of the history of the county, with the greatest sor-
sow we say, that we fear, that none will come to abide with you who will serve you as faithfully as we have. These, our fears, are algo
your apprehenslons.we know. Already our GOOD-BYE SALE has been going on for a few days only and tha attendance has been be-
yond our expectations; but the IJIG STOCK OF MERCHANDISE stands the orieal with firmness. Although our assortments are yet
complete *e would suggest tfeat all those who are in a position to take advantage of this sale should do so at once. " You'll never mine the
water until the well runs dry ” and those who are waiting or delaying may later regret after the fountain has run dry that they had not
made their purchases from us and anticipated their needs for months ahead. This is not a sale of old stock such as you find on the shelves
of high-priced concerns, whoso goods remain untouched and unnoticed for months at a time—but it is of first-classup-to-date goods bought
during the past summer before we concluded to leave LaGrange—new goods and correct styles. Much of this merchandise has been
opened only recently and the orders placed during the summer are not yet all in. A few cases are yet being received each day. In a few
days our Fall purchases will be all received and soon the well will show signs of running dry, then you will miss the water and no or-
ders will be duplicated. We say to all those who have any purchases to make tht it will pay you well to travel a hundred miles to at-
tend this sale. You can buy what you need at present and the prices are such that you should anticipate your needs and buy what you
WILL need during the entire Fall and next Spring. This is what many are dbing and what all should do. Owing to the formation of
the dry goods trusts among the manufacturers we cannot buy the goods we offer you at tljp price we sell them.
