SHOE STORE!
Ferguson 81 C0so


HAVE just opened their new Store in "An-
derson's Row. Of buildings, nearly opposite the
Gazette Office.
Their stock OF Boots and Shoes for men, wo-
men and children, is certainly the best and
cheapest that has ever been brought 10 Bedford,
tor three reasons.
First On account Of the pressure of the
times, they have been laid in at 80 cents on the
dollar less than what was paid last year for the
same goods.
Second They were bought for CASH, and
the usual discounts made
Third They were bought in much larger
quantities than dry goods merchants buy them,
and consequently were bought much lower.
If this is doubted, the evidence is on the stamp
at the counter.
LADIES' DEPARTMENT.
The store room has been SO arranged as to
have separate apartment for the Ladies, pro-
vided with comfortable chairs and stools where
they cat sit and talk, or buy shoes as they
please.

In connection with the shoe business, all
kinds of Pickles, Fruits and Preserves will be
