ASTONISHING LOW PRICES.
Sale OF G. w. Cierlaewss stock BY
Brill Bros.

So
BRILL Bros.
On Thursday morning the well known
firm of Brill Brothers. of Cortlandt street.
and also of Sixth avenue, New York City,
will begin a slaughter sale of the bankrupt
stock of the late George ". Clerihew at No.
SIS Newark avenue. There is no humbug
about this sale as any one can see for him
self the plain figures marked on the goods
as sold by the old firm, and the purchasers Of
the stock will simply sell it for half price.
This seems incredible, but if one considers
the price paid in cash to the assignee, and
knowing the business methods of Brill
Brothers in making quick turns for cash
profits, it il not to be wondered at.
Nevertheless it will amaze Jersey Cityites
to see at what low figures they can buy
goods at this sale. Even if they do not need
any clothing just now it win pay the pur-
chaser to keep them till they are wanted,

Mary Sonsa, a servant employed by
Mrs. Mary Nathason of No. 1853 First
