IMMENSE SALE OF SURPLUS STOCK
C. A r K s
ONE PRICE CLOTHING HOuSE

This Fall my business had increased
SO much, that decided to make des-
perate effort to run my sales up to
$1O0,000.O0. To do this 1 purchased
for spot cash $4,000 worth Of clothing
and furnishing goods, the sale OF which
added to my regular run OF business,
would bring about the coveted result.
But Providence doesn't always dis.
pose as man man proposes, and the pro-
longed season OF rainy weather has
destroyed all calculation and left me
barely holding my own regular trade,
while the $4,000 stock is comparative
Iy untouched. The wet weather has eff
fectually spoiled anything like a boom,
aud but one course remains open, viz:
to sell the goods for what they will
bring, and stop the depreciatit ON
the goods which is inevitable from
carrying over from season TO season.
The goods will be sold for what they
will bring, and that means a rapid
closing out, for at prices offered no one
can afford tO.spend dollar elsewhere
for clothing.

WHY They Lead.

DIR. Pierce's medicines outsell all others, be-
cause of their possessing such superior curative
properties as to warrant their manufacturers In
supplying them to the people (as they are doing
through all druggists) on such conditions as no
other medicines are sold under, viz: that they
shall either benefit or cure the patient, or all
money paid for them will be refunded. Tho
