SUR PRISE

keeps up. Other credit houses
have been Flooding along for
some time, while with us our
sales and delivery men have
had all they could handle.
The reason for this is the SUI
perb and complete lines of
goods we carry and the ex-
tremely low prices at which we
are selling them. 1t is true,
we are not making much
money, but then we are cut
ting down our stock and we
will have no shop-worn goods
next season; and then again,
we keep our hands employed,
and every tradesman knows
what it is to be fully employed
during the dull season. Our
new fall and winter stocks will
soon be coming in, and we
need all the room we can get.
This means that you can buy
