Great Reduction Sale.

Contrary to our usual custom we inaugu-
rate our Semi-annual Reduction Sale one
month in advance. 1t is our misfortune and
your luck. Our purchases this winter were
much heavier than usual in ant iclpation of q
large trade; in this we are disappointed.
Our stock is entirely too heavy, and the holt
days being now upon us, we feel the necessity
Of working off the stock and realize from it.
There being a natural community of interest
between the farmer and the merchant, and
the farmers being equally disappointed in the
prices they get for their products, we are
willing to lose our portion on the principle
that one good turn deserves another. Call,
we will save you money, never was there
such an opportunity of buying goods at such
reduced prices in the midst of the season.
