Significant.

The fact that the vast multitude which
thrOnged our store all day yesterday has
never been equalled in our history is very
significant. 1T shows that more people
are learning every day that at Benefits
they can spread a dollor over more
goods than any place else on earth. Our
second floor during most of Saturday
was a veritable sea of teeming human
ity, while few left the store without first
visiting the holiday goods counters in
our drug, stationery and book and hard
ware departments. Why don't you make
your selections of presents now
before the stock is broken? You
can do so by making a small payment
down, and we'll lay the goods away till
you them. Don't forget our dig
line of silk plush rockers and parlor sets.
They'll make acceptable presents, and
the prices we're making on them, they're
almost Il present to tho purchaser.
Dolls, games, toys and miscellaneous
holiday goods in endless variety and at
all prices from one cent way up into
the dollars. But whether it's the big
price or the little price, it's always Ben
nett's price-the lowest price.
In our
PRESCRIPTION PHARMACY.
We have a fine line of wines and
liquors, sold strictly for medical use,
which includes "Old Crow" Hermit
age" Bond s. Lillard," "Kentucky
Club" and oscar Pepper" WHISTLES,
'Hennessey" brandy and all kinds of
imported and domestic wines. Quality
the very highest-prices the very lowest.
MORE SIGNIFICANCE.
Another significant fact is, that n per-
son who has once been through an oleo-
