SAMPLERS GREAT OFFER.
Clearing but Spring Goods at a Large
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Display.

observation-disclosures Display.
The Newark avenue clothing firm of
Otto Sampler & Son a ar a~nnounce-
ment which ought to attract intending
purchasers of mems, boys or childreT's
clothing. The firm having lad in a NEST
complete and varied line OF spring cloth
ing are anxious to dispose of it to make
room for their summer goods. Generally
the spring season has been dull, ard con
~sequently Samplers have what the French
people would call an embarras de rich
esses in the way of clothing. All this must
go and they will give a twenty-five per
cent. reduction on every purchase made
in that line. The firm offer this very big
discount because they dent want to carry
over this stock until a second season.
Prices, therefore, are ITO be sacrificed to
space. In this spring stock are q large
rufnber of exceptionally fine light over
coats suited for the fall season also and
which for those who are going away will
be of great advantage. This line will be
discounted like the rest.
AS for the summer display in clothing
it is remarkable for its completeness and
it's worth. In the ch.ldren's department
Messrs. Sampler show a surprising num-
her of novelties. Clothing of the most
fashionable modes, made by skilled ar
lists, out of the best goods, are marked
at prices far below what one would
reasonably expect them to be sold for.
Light suitings for men and boys are
also marve,s of what can be lone by a
firm bent on giving the people full value
for their money.
There is one thing observable about
the goods in the store on Newark ave
nue.. They are arranged will plenty of
light on them. Purchasers do not buy
clothes here by gaslight and rue their
bargains by daylight. All is open, like
the FIRMS transactions. Enterprise like
this is sure to be successful. because the
people readily respond to genuine eff
forts to please them.
