Remnant Sale History

! Our first remnant sale was started by
Mr.. J. W. Thomas in 1885, about two
years after his co-partnership with the
Hales. The method Of disposing OF rem
nants previous to that time was that now
in practice by many f1rms-put them on
were not enough to cause any stir and,
as rule, after a few Of the better rem
nants were sold, the rest stayed by un-
til they became an eye-sore to customers
and clerks alike.
Mr.. Thomas suggested the having OF q
general cleaning up at the end OF each
season. making a real business OF 1t. add
broken lines remained to be disposed Of:
The first sale of this character was held
in December Of that year. 1t proved
such a great success that 1t was repeated
the next spring and SO on every SIX
months until the present ttme-e1ghteen
and one-haf years
The crowds increased with each sue
cessive sale, until it became problem
where the goods were coming from to
supply the great multitude CT people who
came in answer to our advertisements.
In the meantime our regular business
more than doubled, consequently our re-
sources in remnants and side bargains
became greater each year, so that we
have managed to more than satisfy our
patrons, and Thomas Remnant Sales have
| become the most popular events in dry
goods circles, the ladies expecting and
looking forward to the announcement
| each spring and fall
For each sale we engage from one hun
dred to one hundred and twenty-five ex-
ira salespeople, cashiers, bundlers etc..
and the preparations are commenced
weeks in advance, all the arrangements
being completed to make the event sue
cessful, not only in disposing Of mer-
chandise, but also to insure comfort to
our patrons, the prompt delivery Of goods
and all the many details connected with
a business Of this magnitude.
Next Thursday begins our thirty sew
enth sale, and we predict that it will be
a rouser. The backward season leaves
lis with many lines to dispose of, and
our piece goods departments report rem
nants in great plenty. Our old custom
ers fully understand and need no invi-
tation to these sales. To those more
recently come among US we write this
bit Of history, that they may know some
thing Of the beginning and meaning OF
these greatest OF trade events, and we
trust many such will come and. see for
themselves. e Our prices range from one
third to one-half of regular prices, In
some cases even less. Our goods are OF
the reliable class and in q variety OF
lines. More specific particulars being
given in the papers Of Wednesday next.

keep faith with myself? How long
did I preserve this precious resolve
inviolate? Only until she encountered
me-quite unavoidably on my part
and, animated by some celestial SYM
pathy and divine impulse, spoke to
me of my mother, pitied my
sad bereavement, wished she
could have done something, and
even went so far as to say that she
could sympathize with me, because
she was half-orphaned herself!'
