door, for the first thing that struck their
eyes you could see them smile at getting
two papers of pins for one cent, such as
they had been paying DC for elsewhere.
And the way we sent out thread was
wonder to all of them, 5 spools of Coats d

Clark's famous thread, not owned or con.
trolled by the trust, went out to all the
people at &c II spool They bought laces and
embroideries as they never bought them be-

plain-the signs read 20 to 80 per cent less
than ever before. and the big red mark APP

even greater discount than that. They
we're marked to get cash.
The belt counter was one of the most

OF course THEY ARE PUTTING UP
THE llOLLER and putting out signs of
distress and saying we don't amount to
much, and we are losing thousands of
dollars to get cash, but with us it is our
own plain business and they should not
interfere, because the band wagon is
liable to run over them. Lightning has
hit 'em. THEY ARE WEEPING, BUT
THEY ARE WEEPING ALONE, Their
tears are falling, but they are falling by
the wayside.
We have got the aisles of their stores
looking like IA bowling wilderness Our
clerks down here haven't got time to
think. The only thing they can do is to
show goods, cut them off and wrap them
up, for there are hundreds standing in
line to procure some of the bargains
