DAYS OF STARTLING SURPRISES.

In these days of startling surprises it
behooves all who are in search of strict
ly up-to-date and honorable houses in
which implicit confidence can be be-
slowed so think twice before deciding
with whom your wants can be safely
cared for. The C. 81. BennetdShoe Co..
367 Main street, Bridgeport, Conn, still
leads and just now is running the most
gigantic shoe sale ever before heard of
in these parts. Only few weeks re-
main before Mr. Skidmore of the firm
will withdraw and the large stock of
boots, shoes, slippers, rubbers, trunks,
bags, etc, must be converted into cash
in order to raise the necessary funds to
release him. The 81. n. Ayres' bank
rupt stock is also going at marvellous
low prices here so the two sales COM
bined make trading very easy as the
prices which prevail are next to nothing
