AT LOW PRICES.

n IJF IhIOLio,
Not since we have been selling Dry
Goods have we had the pleasure of
offering such a stock of new Dry
Goods, Carpets, Curtains and Shoes
as we will show this fall and winter.
Early in the summer we began to
make special sales of all lines in every
stock, and we made the prices in these
special sales so low that the goods
sold. So we start this season with
absolutely new goods in all lines in
every stock, and by buying them in
large quantities in the spring and
summer, we are able to sell them at,
in many instances, less than cost of
manufacture.
