let out extra links and stocked up

We cannot too strongly urge
upon all the necessity of making
their visit as early as possible
While the sale is now in bloom
the daintiest and most desirable
selections can be made. Things
are here to-day thatmay be gone
tomorrow, and the very things
perhaps that you would fancy
most. As no goods are laid
aside nor sent on approval, and
as there is nothing concealed nor
hidden, the best falls to the first
caller.
Our goods are as staple as the
mint mark on gold. No lady,
we care not of what degree,
should permit this Wholesale
Slaughter of Desirable Stuff to
goby default. All should come,
and should come early. 1t is
not our style to talk a thing out
of its proper MAGNITUDE. We
are far from doing so now. If
we err at all it is rather in I'M
Devastating than overstating the
character, extent and Importance
of this Great Tearing Down
Sale to the ladies of Baltimore

LONG LIFE,

There is nothing in the world more generally
desired than long life yet the majority of peo-
pie put of caring for their health-not because
they are really careless but because we live our
lives at such pace we have not time TO give the
subject sufficient thought until we receive a re-
minder In the shape OF q severe Illness.
Then, too, we are constantly bewildered by the
various schools OF medicine, and by the physi-
scians who represent them, and often blunder
in our choice of doctor.
II people only knew that the very best health
keeper, life-preserver, and disease.prevented
that has yet been discovered, is simmered down
into concentrated and very palatabe form In
the shape Of New Style Pleasant Taste Vinegar
Btters, they would not hesitate moment to try
IL.
But they do not know. How can they know
when so many not only worthless, but positive
ly injurious drugs are constantly flooding the
market under various names and guises, that the
New Style Vinegar Bitters is as bad as any of
them?
They do not know, of course, unless they have
the courage to try the New Style. 1t strengthens
out a tang'ed-up system in very short while,
aud those who buy II once buy it always.
Why don't you try it, readers ? 1t is set out by
a responsible house, and is exactly as represent
ed. 1t costs but dollar for a very large bottle.
Try 1t once and you will never be so glad OF any
thing 10 your life. Your druggist may not have
1t, but he will order it for you. BE sure it says
New Style Pleasant Taste on carton and bottle
before you take it. Try it, and you will feel
happier than If you had found gold mine. for
1t is really mine-of health.

pensve herbs and roots, with fine delicate
