ed hereabouts. The churches were by
no means well attended in the morning
and at night there were slim gatherings
on account of the rain.

We could sell to shop-keepers st these prices

cess heretofore in this sale makes us anticipate
a very lively week after this great cut, and
we therefore advise those who intend to take

them the benefit of ! better choice and better
attention. The wide-a-wakc man and woman
are the persons who get along best now; and

Another word to tho good people of Alex
andria. To those who were wise enough to give
us call and to inspect the offerings we have
been making for the last few weeks, it is need
less for us to say anything in the way of eX-
planstion Of what We are doing. Our bar
gains are moro convincing than columns of
argument and our prices moro eloquent than
mere words. But to those who are shy and
back ward, and who are suspicious OF sales
gotten up now and then by merchants to boom
business, we desire to say Il few words to-day.
In the first place we want you TO under
stand that this is no fake" selling out. IL
isn't done for pleasure, and 1t isn't done for
profit. Stern necessity caused the institution
of this sale. Stern necessity fixed the prices.
Stern necessity again demands cut in prices
regardless of the value, cost and desirability
of the Goods, Wares and Merchandise We have
still on hand
The law says that this estate must be speed
ily wound up and wind up is the word even
if we have to practically give the goods away.
Now, if we have convinced you that this Is
bona fide clearing out and have gained
enough of your confidence to have you be-
lieve that our object is to get rid OF the goods
we have at any prices, we will, for tho pur-
pose Of convincing those who have not visited
our MAMMOTH SLAUGHTER SALE that
VIC offer the bargains of lifetime, quote
SOHO prices we have made on popular and de-
srable goods. Figures, we know, don't lie, so
we will let them speak for themselves. Look
over our list carefully, and if you sec anything
you want cut out the advertisement, and put
you finger on the article and come to u.s. and
you will get the stuff exactly as advertised.
To our numerous friends who have been in to
see us so often lately, we desire to say only
that this picnic can't last much longer. Make
hay while the sun shines. Our loss is your
gain. word to the wise is sufficient.
