READ THIs.--Dan Hartman Is selling
ogat cost. This is no dodge to induce
people TO buy, but Mr.. Hartman means
what he says. lie desires to 20 out OF
the dry goods trade and will quit that
branch Of his business as soon as his pres
ent stock can be disposed of. In this
connection It may be well to state that
his stock IL not old or shelf worn, but on
the contrary is fresh aud seasonable, and
Of the latest styles, consisting Of such
goods as are usually to he found In a
first-class dry goods store. His stock OF
notions and gents furnishing goods is
also large andsselect, and will be sold for
one-third less than the same can be pur-
chased elsewhere. All Mr.. Hartman
asks Is an examination Of his goods and
prices to conyincc every one that he
means just what he says. Call and see
