THE FAIR.
Our February and March
g g CLEARING Sale
Cuts Two Ways.

One benefits us, the other benefits
our customers; it cuts down our stock and
cuts down our customers expenses
There is still another way i cuts which
some people don't like-it cuts down the
business of our competitors. No matter;
we shall keep right on chopping wood
and let the chips fall where they may
Only one class of people will make mis-
take in regard to our sale and that class is
those who stay away. Do not be one of
the class to make this mistake; improve
the money saving opportunity which this
sale affords.
