Of our store on Saturday night, gave us the

ciple Of square dealing. lis p perseverance

LADIES, MISSES AND CHILDRENs'
WRAPs.-rhe first thing we mention In
wraps is rough or boucle stocking net
Jacket for ladies' and misses fall wear, this
is a iaunty and stylish little wrap with
metal buttons, price from So to $3.50 The
next is a short jacket of heavier material,
long in front and short back, mostly of
rough material or astrakan, this is very
popular wrap, we have ordered the fourth
lot of them this season already Price
from $3.50 up. The next Is the Newmarket
this is the most popular wrap that has
ever been on the market. 1t is stylish, it
is convenient, it is warm, it is especially
adapted to persons living in the country
as it is very warm, and we don't believe
it will ever go out of style. We have de-
cidedly the largest line of Newmarkets
that we have ever had. and we had them
made to our own special order, and at
prices far below any former season. Just
see the comparison. Newmarkets that
sold last year at 81, we are now selling Mt
50; last year at$9, now 81; last year at $12.-
so now SO, and so on. We have also q
nice line of astrakan and seal plush sacks
which are very handsome. Now the ques-
ton is, do you want wrap this season of
any kind If so, all we ask of you, is to
call and see us and examine our line and
if we can't suit you we will be to blame
and not you. EMMERT ~ FIERY.

: SIX or eight years ago, there were very
few OyERCOATS used, compared with
to-day .(OVERCoATs) Ut was rare thing
in those days TO see child wear an Oy Err
COAT. But the time has come when an
0VERCOAT is as essential to one's ward
robe, as line suit or a dress shirt. Moth-
ers are not satisfied until jennie, Tommy
or Charley has a good, warm, neat fitting,
dressy Oy ERCOAT, and it arises in their
mind, where can we purchase one to the
best advantage. We can truthfully say
that our stock OF ovERCOATS for MEN.
YOUTHS, BOYS and CHILDREN were
never more complete, or bought so low as
this season. Our position then, is such
that we can and will sell you an OVER
COAT fully 25 per cont. lower this, than
any previous season IL Is no trouble for
us to exhibit our OvERCOATS. We can
not sell them unless we show them. We
know there will be a great many who will
say, how can you sell OYERcOATS lower
than airy previous season, or lower than
any other clothing house. 1t is because
we bought our stock OF OVERCOATS in
the early part of July, when trade with
the manufacturers was very quiet and the
outlook for them was very poor for a good
fall trade. hence they sold OYERCOETsa at
a great sacratice, and Of course we took
advantage and bought very heavy. There
fore, our stock Of OyERCOATS is COM
plete IN assortment, exclusive in designs
and late IN stylessaBd lower 10 prices than
any house in our city dare offer them for.

we say.
