HATS FOR ALL AGES.

All honor to our prices for the
tremendous trade we have built up
in our Hat Department. Our aim
is to try and see how cheaply we
can sell. If other hat men cannot
buy as advantageouslyas we can that
is no lookout Of ours. We buy
every hat that comes into our store
for cash, and we sell it for cash at
the lowest possible price. We
would rather sell ten hats and
make ten cents a piece than sell
only one and make a dollar; and
that's just what we are doing on
the hats that we sell for 9Oc, Sl.7O,
$1.9O, s., &c. We don't 'want
the earth" We want to be busy.
We like to see the jams Of people
in our Hat Department. There IS
a certain satisfaction in being busy
even if one doesn't make much
money. So, therefore, notwith-
standing the wall Of woe that is go
ing up from the exclusive hat men,
we shall continue to sell Men $ Fine
Soft or Stiff Hats, worth 81, 81 .25,
$3.50, for soc. We shall continue
to sell Genuine Fur Stiff Hat,
worth $3.50, for $l.7O. Very fine
Fur Stiff Hats, Dunlap, 1oumans
and Knox block, worth s., for
$40. Children's Jersey Caps,
worth 25c, for l0c. A line of l5c
