Stickney's Circus and Menagerie.

Robert Stickney's Imperial Circus, Mu-
scum, and Menagerie, notwithstanding its
vast facilities, was nightly compelled to
turn away an immense multitude, who were
anxious to behold the wonders of nature
and the beautiful performance daily and
nightly exhibited under his vast pavilion
His attractions were too great. 1t is the
only show that has eyer been obliged to
close its doors in this city on aegount of the
immense throng. The great patronage he
received speaks for itself. 1t is the latest
and best combination of novelties and
amusements ever presented to public view;
and when Mr.. Stickney comes again, he
should add a large amount of seating ca
pacity for our people, Pittsburgh Plmter
The above circus and mepagerie will visit
Elkton on next Tuesday, the 24th, aud give
two iirst-class performances.

HOW TO
Clothing
under Price.

If we could sell a little
more of this and a little less
of that, we could make
things come out even-the
last man that came in would
carry off the last suit; but
we can't. Out of every
stock there arc a great many
sizes left when some are
gone. The best we can do
with these Incomplete assert
ments is to mark them low
enough to set a great many
people looking among them
for bargains.
This we do every day at
this time of year; and just
now we have enough of
such to stock a little store.
Besides, odd parts of suits
get left-coats, vests and
trousers. We have a room
in which there is nothing
else. There is in that room
cheaper clothing than you
have any notion Of. We call
it the Bargain-Room.
These marked-down suits
and garments are OF all
sorts; they may be among
the best in the store.
We force a continual clear
ance of such articles as
would only cmbarrass us;
and keep our stocks always
fresh and full.
