Oar clearance sale of ladies' fine shoes at a discount opened yesterday morning. In it we have placed three lines of button boots, marked $1. 1.65. $2 65 and s 85-some three thousand pairs. We think that it will not be necessary to further advertise these shoes; prices named carry the penalty of surplus stock to us and we prefer to make our loss this month rather than to be all the season about it.
 On Saturday, the 18th, we propose to an- nounce large sale of misses' and children g shoes at 40 to 50 per cent. discount from regular prices. WALLACE B. FENN &1 Co. f12 10t

1nOSe OI you WllO WcIc buyers of our Mems Unlaundered Shirts last week know how moderate was our statement that they were to go for a little less than the cost of the materials in them. It's our way to underestimate, in our newspa- per chats with, you, the value of these little services. With this same reverence for the modest side of truth, we say there are about 100 dozen of the 3-for-a- dollar Shirts left and some of the other brands. There's no prospect in sight of our having any more of them; the opportunity is therefore limited for you. The special sale of Mems Night Shirts, Collars and Cuffs will last while the supply holds out. There are other pros poets, though. Five of our buy CTS are in New York, and news has come that they have gathered some wondrous good things, value for price, but more of them later. Something came in Saturday that's bound to make stir. It was FLOUNCINGS.

When you can save 3o per cent. or more on such figure! as our Embroideries usually go al be sure you've realized the rocki est of rock-bottoms.
 | It's only by seeing, by compar ing, that you can know how grea and how real is the saving. Well allow them to tell their story witt your own eyes on them.
